I wish stories that involve bullying would go more in depth about the whole mess. It seems like a rather simple way to just go "well that's that" when it clearly altered the bullied person (in this case Sahoko, who despite saying she wasn't exactly bullied experienced a smiliar alienation as being bullied does). I wanted more on the emotional side, as well as some understanding and talking-it-through from her friends (
who freezed her out wayyy to easily
).

Other than that the story continues to be sweet, silly and fun to follow!

Also the cover is just criminal. These are underage girls not p*rn models. Have some decency.

First of all, let me go ahead and admit that I'm already so terribly impatient for volume four. I love this series so much, there's so much mystery about exactly what happened in the past, and why Aoi and Sahoko aren't together in the present LIKE THEY SHOULD BE (is that a spoiler?). They were both there for each other when it counted, and have shown a lot of personal growth and realization of themselves.



*sighs* Now I have to wait until december for the next volume.
