Would you rather wait for love like a flower, or fly toward love like a butterfly?
Suiren Shibazeki is often compared to a beautiful flower—but one that grows on the tallest peak of a mountain, forever out of reach. When Suiren develops feelings for the quiet Taichi Kawasumi, however, she doesn’t want to be a distant flower. She’d rather leave her lofty perch and fly toward him like a butterfly.
Suiren and Kawasumi are now second-years, and they’re fortunate enough to be in the same class! Seeing each other this way is nice, but Suiren starts to feel lonely as Kawasumi immerses himself in karate. Can Suiren work up the courage to tell Kawasumi that she wants more?

Communication is key especially when things start getting blurry and this volume represented that well.
Suiren and Kawasumi’s relationship is progressing, but slowly. There are many new emotions both are experiencing, many worries and answerless questions as well as expectations. The volume starts off with Suiren and Kawasumi adjusting to their new classroom where they are together but due to everyone’s interference are quite distanced. Suiren makes a new friend and Kawasumi tries to not bother Suiren. While Kawasumi’s birthday passes unknowingly and he gets busy with a karate competition, Ryousuke and Mina’s love story is blooming and Koharu’s has just started.
I felt absolutely sad for Suiren in this volume! From volume one, we know that Suiren finds it extremely difficult to communicate and in this volume she just couldn’t express herself. Her friends were there to support her however unlike usual they didn’t interfere. I’m surprised by Suiren’s growth at the end of the volume and her courage to vocalize her thoughts.
It was refreshing to see Kawasumi in this volume. Kawasumi was more expressive and caring in this volume. As a reader, we can see just how passionate he is towards karate but just as understanding in his flaws. Also, I liked how this volume depicted that sometimes when we’re involved in something we’re passionate about, we sometimes forget to value our relationships.
There was no shortage of our secondary cast and their progressing stories. Ryousuke and Mina don’t get enough page space and I honestly would like to see them more. Their relationship is well developed and solid so I guess there’s not much angst but they are just so adorable and fun! And without spoiling, Koharu also seems to have moved on and her new beginning might just be on the horizon.
This volume was great but I felt it could have been a teensy bit better. There were less dialogues than usual and many brief time skips without any indication to how much time had passed. I also wished we got to see more of the karate competition since the art and depiction was super cool. There are a lot of hidden messages in this volume compared to the previous volumes and we do end on a cliffhanger. I’m looking forward to the next volume as we near the end of this series!

Konnichiwa a todas, lectoras 🌸
Hoy os traigo la reseña del octavo volumen del manga «Daily Butterfly» de suu Morishita, el cual está lleno de tensión. Dicho esto, empezamos:
🦋El volumen dedica los primeros capítulos a presentarnos las tensiones derivadas de que Suiren y Kawasumi vayan a la misma clase en el nuevo curso.
Nos encontramos en un escenario en el que la pareja principal se siente incómoda al ser observada manteniendo contacto visual, Mina, una amiga de Koharu, pretende superar una ruptura con una nueva relación y parece que Koharu todavía no ha sanado sus sentimientos no correspondidos.
🦋En este contexto se organiza una fiesta de solteros a la que asisten Aya, Koume, Koharu y Yuri. Durante esta, Koharu decide abandonar tras ser preguntada por su relación con Kawasumi, a lo que está visiblemente afectada, decide salir tras Atohira, quien fue engañado al evento.
Koharu, quien parece estar interesada sentimentalmente en él, le insiste en preguntarle el motivo por el que no quiere tener pareja.
🦋En el último tercio del capítulo, la obsesión por el karate de Kawasumi, en este caso reflejada en la idea de vencer a Atohira en un torneo oficial, hace que tome distancia de Suiren hasta pasado el evento.
En consecuencia, la protagonista se siente sola e incapaz de comunicarle a Kawasumi su malestar por no haberla invitado a ver la competencia.
Otro detalle importante, lo hallamos en que él no cree que su propio cumpleaños sea un evento importante, revelando dicho detalle pidiendo un refrigerio como regalo.
🌸Conclusión: Dejando a un lado el capítulo extra, los últimos compases del volumen elevan la tensión entre ambos cuando suben a una noria en un parque de atracciones.
Suiren quiere su primer beso en el lugar, pero Kawasumi no se siente cómodo al ser visto por sus compañeros de clase.
Entonces, Suiren le expresa todo su malestar derivado de las incomunicaciones entre los dos.
El volumen cierra con Suiren llorando fruto de la confusión y dejándonos sin saber si hubo beso.
Valoración: 5🌸
Arigato gozaimasu por vuestro tiempo 🌸

New year, new classmates, new problems. Suiren and Kawasumi are in the same class now (yay!) but Aya and Yuri are in different classes (boo!). So Suiren is without her usual protectors, meaning it falls of Kawasumi to be a buffer... but because he's a boy, the other boys are raising even more of a fuss (despite Kawasumi being her boyfriend). So Kawasumi's solution is to avoid each other at school, which leaves Wednesdays... but that gets taken by his karate... meaning he and Suiren are spending even less time together... so Suiren is even more isolated.
Meanwhile, Aya and Yuri end up going to a singles mixer with Koharu and Atohira is also there, so there's some extra drama.
This series has 12 volumes.

Seems like Kawasumi might be farther off the mark than he thought. In his effort to focus on his tournament and protect Suiren he's actually managed to make her cry and break down enough to offload a whole lot of her recent thoughts and wishes about their relationship, and that's even more shocking with this couple given both of them are far more prone to silence than to talking. The rest of their new classroom constantly butting in and putting up barriers is not helping either. Hopefully there will be some sort of reconnect following this breakdown to start building things back up again.

It felt like a lot of this volume was focused on the rival side characters I don’t care for (and setting up a romance between them I likewise don’t care for), so that was kinda meh. I liked it better when we focused back on our two leads, except then it started introducing needless drama that I feel like we’ve already solved in one of the earlier volumes…? I don’t know how much longer I can cling to any interest in this series.

Dieser Band war echt frustrierend...Warum reden Suiren und Kawasumi nicht miteinander? Mittlerweile müssten beide doch mal kapiert haben, dass man nicht weiterkommt wenn man sich dauernd nur anschweigt. Es enttäuscht nicht auch ein wenig das bei den beiden irgendwie nicht so eine richtige Entwickelung zu sehen ist

I gotta admit, I feel so sorry for Suiren.
I hated seeing her tears, she is so miserable and no one is actually understanding her because she's not good with words, and now she's all alone, she also can't talk to Kawasumi because people will bully them and so..
I hope everything will be just fine in the next volume.

the concept of not knowing your partner's birthday after dating for multiple months?
January 3, 2025
I think this one suffered in comparison because I was coming from the WAFFy high of reading You’re My Cutie, which has such great communication. Suiren and Kawasumi are painful to read about. He has a tendency to want to shield her too much - who cares what the guys in the class say, they’re dating and can look at each other and even speak to each other if they want. Their classmates really annoy me.
I want to like Kawasumi, but TBH he’s not a very good partner. It’s stupid to tell her not to talk to him without explaining any further, and his focus on the karate tournament is so obsessive - why is it so important to win THIS match? And then not to tell her when the match is…? It’s hard to ship them when they’re hardly together.

The ending made me so sad. I really hate that Suiren and Kawasumi are letting their classmates dictate their relationship.
