*3.5*

The relationship drama was pretty good in this volume (especially with the Meiko reveal). I like that Miki feels conflicted about her feelings for Ginta and Yuu, it would be far too boring and uninteresting if she was just in love with one of them so soon in the series. But I'm a fan of slow burn romance, so I always end up feeling that way haha.

I do think that there was a bit too much tennis happening. I appreciate that the characters have hobbies and interests outside of the love story, I just think we could've wrapped up the tennis match a tad earlier, otherwise it was a nice and entertaining break. Can't wait to read volume 3!

This manga has a pretty out-there premise, but managed to pull it off. Parts of it are very emotional and I think the story is crafted well.

Still so wild rereading these volumes, they're just as absurd as I remember.

Eh. I appreciate the cliffhanger, but I'm over it.

It's a lot of teen drama nonsense, and yet I'm enjoying it. The pacing is good, and I like the tennis aspect. The parents are all so irresponsible...leaving their kids totally alone for 2 weeks with no notice and no one watching them? The kids haven't been cooking for themselves, so I'm worried about them!

Ginta is so stupid and tiresome.

I like Yuu! Not in the couple but rather as a character itself
