I’m absolutely loving that the pace of this series has slowed down! It now fits more with my preferred style of slice of life! There’s not too much tension in the narrative, but Hatoyama and Hitsuji still have issues in their relationship to deal with. 

In this volume, the two main characters really contend with getting each other on the same page about how they feel for each other. Sure, they’ve said they love each other before, but the depth of feeling is ambiguous to them. They work through that, in no uncertain terms, in this volume. 

Anyway. I also really enjoyed being able to see both Hitsuji and Hinata as waiters! They’re adorable 💖

So glad I decided to stick with this series despite my original uncertainty because of the fast pace of the first two volumes 🤩
