I love Pin. Like we all agree that he's a good guy he can just be kinda annoying and it's amazing!
He's a good guy and not at all a slimeball. I love that he won't date Ayane bc he's not a creep. honestly this is a highlight for me bc in so many mangas/animes they don't care about the age difference and some encourage it.
This was a great relationship that was never going to happen. I felt like I could root for it because they actually had a relationship as friends. I felt bad rooting for them but that's beside the point.

I'm not crying. You are…
…
I literally don't know what to say.
I can't believe it's ending. *sobs*
I thought the whole thing with Pin was handled really well. I wasn't super fond of things leading up to it, but it was a good ending concerning that arc.
Seeing everyone graduate though…
WAILS!
I'm nervous to start the next volume. I'm still remembering how everyone was when the series just started.
How could it be almost over?!

In this penultimate volume, Valentine's Day is the impetus for a big love confession for two supporting characters whose will they/won't they vibe took over what felt like the final third of the series.
I'm just happy to see the main characters retake center stage as they graduate high school and prepare for college.
The final volume is on hand, so on to the conclusion!

PIN … you’re a stand up guy, I’m sorry I doubted you but it comes with the territory

I CRY
Pin reminds me of Ryke Meadows in a way, he has rough exterior but actually gentle. I really love his words of affirmation for Yano-chin, she definitely deserves it. This is an emotional volume, they're graduating.

Oh thank GOD Ayane and Pin's plot was resolved so well.
I'm happy she got her feelings out there for her own sake, and I loved how he handled that with the maturity she deserved, letting her down easy and coming clean with the compromising situation this put him in. It was lovely to read.
The graduation was also very touching, made me feel nostalgic for mine.
I really love how Karuho Shiina balances the romance and friendship in this story, never leaving one neglected. It all comes together to share this very simple but heartfelt story.

Well, technically, Ayane-chan is almost graduating.
But I'd still love a timeskip, if possible!

The feels are real. I didn’t want to cry so I may have skipped some bits 😅😅 Sue me for being emotionally constipated 😂
I had a bit of a laugh at her speech when she freelanced it to say that she doesn’t mind that she was called ‘creepy’ but at least her speech was authentic to her 😂👍 You do you Sawako!!
I wonder what’s in store in the last volume. Probably a look into their futures.

Ahhhhhh Pin y Yane me traian al borde de un collapso aunque bueno su final fue interesante porque en la vida real hubiera pasado. El discurso de Sawako fue muy lindo y la ceremonia en general, también. Los momentos de Kazehaya y Sawako son muy lindos. Y Chizu con Ryu awwwww muy lindos muy lindos.

Este es un volumen muy melancólico con los chicos graduando tenemos vistazos a como eran al principio y como fueron creciendo juntos a lo largo de tres años.

March 13, 2025Arai sensei un gran signore devo dire. Avevo paura che tutto prendesse una brutta strada buttandosi sulla pedofilia invece è stato un finale per questi due più che giusto. Che è momentaneo, per carità di Dio, si capisce benissimo. È ovvio che Pin vuole Ayane non ci vuole un genio, quindi aspettiamo. Per il resto l’ultimo capitolo in particolare mi ha fatto venire la depressione mi ha fatto ricordare quando l’ultimo giorno di liceo ho scattato una foto con tutti i miei amichetti del tempo e con cui naturalmente non parlo più

"I want Pin to be the first person to break my heart"
Maravilla de tomo. La confesión de Ayane, todo el diálogo que tienen, la resolución pfff literal al borde de las lágrimas 😭
Y la graduación súper nostálgica, literal que parecía el último tomo. Les voy a echar mucho de menos a todos joo 🥺🥺🥺🥺

Pin, il personaggio maschile più figo di sempre! 😍 💖

I like the way that this was handled. Pin's a pretty decent guy although he's a weirdo and annoying.

Kinda creeped out by the infatuation with the teacher, ngl.

THIS MADE ME SO EMOTIONAL WHAT THE HECK

Holy fuck dude this volume really got me. Sawakos speech, the walk through the school with flashbacks to the earlier volumes, the Sawako anthology! One more to go and I am not ready.

Series Review: 5/5 - I own all 29 volumes and have the 30th preordered :D
Volume Review: 4/5
I was SO excited for this, especially because of the front cover ... Pin with his hair down ... wow! There were happy and sad parts, but mostly sad, which is probably why I gave this 4 stars instead ... I don't like reading sad mangas when I'm expecting them to be happy!
The Sadako (whoops, even I call her that) and Kazehaya parts were not so big and there were a TON of flashbacks. However, it was good. It's winding down. That makes me sad. At the same time, I feel like I'm ready to see it end. I love this series a lot, but 30 volumes is a ton when you want to reread haha. Plus I'm ready for them to move on a grow up. I always have this weird thing about reading manga ... like these characters actually exist in Japan and are living their lives there. These ones especially are close to my heart!!

I was an emotional mess for this volume because I thought it was the last volume. Because of this, the first time I read this volume, I was slightly disappointed. I wanted to see our dear, precious students in the future. You can imagine my happiness and horror when I realized that a. this was not the last volume, and b. we had to wait until December for the last volume.
However, I finished my re-reading of the series and read 29 for a second time this week. If it wasn't for Ayane and Pin's part of this volume, it would be a 3-star. Although heartwarming and emotional with the ending of the group's high school career, this volume does not cover a lot story-wise. The most exciting part, and a majority of the volume, is a wrapping up of Ayane and Pin's story, as mentioned above. It was adorable. I love Ayane and Pin.

I'm not sure if it was just me but it felt off. The art was slightly different than her previous books and the story (sorry not sorry) kinda sucked. I felt like even though Sadako has grown tremendously from her shy days, it felt like the author kept falling back on those stereotypes and weaknesses instead of showing how much she has changed. This volume is the one before the final and going to showcase Ayase and Pin's relationship, as they are on the front cover (omg goals!). Yes, they are teacher and students. I didn't like how Ms. Shiina handled that one. Also the graduation ceremony felt rushed and results on the finals. All in all, it's a good read and bittersweet bc it's been a long journey for everyone.

3.5 - We get an acceptable resolution for Pin and Ayane, and the class graduates! Interesting to see some of the cultural differences between a Japanese and an American high school graduation. And Pin’s hair at the ceremony is my favorite thing ever! Ready for this story to wrap up in the next edition.

I'm proud of this series for where it went with Yano's story, sad but proud!

No sé qué decir, solo que el tiempo pasó muy rápido en este manga y siento el mismo sentimiento de separación. Ya se graduaron y ahora cada quien irá a la universidad.
Ya salieron los resultados de Ayane y batalló para decírselos a Pin, de paso tomó el valor para confesarse. Ya sabíamos que iba a ser rechazada, sentí pena y alivio a la vez, pies Ayane se sacó un peso de encima. Después de todo fue su primer amor, y ese muchos lo recuerdan con cariño. Ayane chan fue muy valiente, de estar en su lugar nunca me hubiese confesado. Pin, como ya se está haciendo costumbre, se gana más mi respeto, y aunque siga haciendo sus bromas ya me es imposible verlo como un personaje cómico, no puedo dejar de pensar que también yo me enamoraría de él XD y que es un profesor muy bueno. No me esperaba que ha supiera los sentimientos de Ayane porque fue muy bueno ocultandolo. Además pensé que tal vez la rechazaría como lo hizo con Kurumi cuando pensó que ella gustaba de él😅😅. Ya veo que me equivoqué, después de todo era un momento serio.
Los resultados de Sawako y Kazehaya están a la espera y Kurumi y Sawako verán sus resultados juntas. Los muñequitos de Sawako son feos, pero es un gesto muy bonito que la hace más tierna. Y Kazehaya al final le regala su corbata. Es todo tan lindooooooo y a la vez triste porque ya no se verán tanto como antes, incluso algunos ya no se vean. Ayyy, voy a recordar mi época de colegialaaaa😭😭😭😭😭.
