i knew the vibes between pin and ayane were off for a while now but if they do end up together i'm genuinely going to be so disappointed because this story has been so perfect so far. but i'm happy that kurumi finally apologized and moved on

SUCH FEELS with Sawako and Kazehaya! The depth of their relationship and the support they have for one another is amazing! I didn't think I could be as invested in a relationship like this in fiction because they aren't "hooking up" or getting married (at least not yet but I hope they do!), but it is such realistic fiction it's amazing! Maybe that doesn't make sense, but seeing Kurumi with Sawako and then Kazehaya with Sawako just makes ME get excited for these characters! Everyone is growing and changing, but not in a bad way. Bittersweet sometimes? For sure, but I know everything is going to be okay. Wait, as Kazehaya said, everything will be fine! <3

I LOVE that Sawako and Kurumi were able to truly discuss their relationship and reconcile. That's so dang rare in romances. It's so cool that Sawako's friendships with the girls in her life are given as much attention has her romantic relationship.

With that amazingness, super disappointed with what is an obvious romantic relationship developing between Ayane and Pin. No teacher/student romances please, it's icky.

Su primer pelea ha terminado, por fin Kazehaya y Kuronuma han hablado de sus sentimientos y de lo que les depara el futuro.

Kurumi le ha pedido perdón a sawako y le pide que vaya con ella.

Yano siente algo por Pin...él se dará cuenta de esto?

3.5 stars, rounded up to 4 because I did like the character development in this volume.

Now hopefully the PLOT can develop...

La reconciliación y la parte de Kurumi no han estado nada mal, pero sin duda lo mejor ha sido el último cap. Aish Ayane, se te está notando mucho 🤭

Como que le estoy perdiendo el amor a la pareja principal pero me interesa mucho saber de los secundarios y la amistad, la amistad es algo que siempre me ha gustado de este manga

there is so many reasons why i wished the anime continued and this volume with kurumi and sawakos friendship growing is one of them!!! in the anime kurumi is semi made out to be a villain but she gets redemption here, she genuinely feels awful for what she did and wants to be sawakos friend and not rival. she’s just grown so much!!

and at the end we finally see ayane realise who she’s in love with and it’s too much ヽ(;▽;)ノ

I don’t really like Kuromi so these past few chapters were just ‘meh’ for me.

And even though we all knew it, Ayane’s crush on Pin has finally been acknowledged (by herself). I really hope is just a crush though and that they don’t end up together by the end of the series.

Teacher/student romantic relationships are a big NO for me and not just because I’m a teacher myself but because they are not good. You can have a crush on your teacher (in fact, is something super common) but if the adult accepts it and pursues that relationship then he/she’s not more than a creep. And even if they get into a relationship after the student graduates high school that’s still so wrong (and some may even say is grooming).

I really expect better from Pin so I hope he (and the writer) don’t disappoint me.

Una delle cose che più amo di questo manga è il fatto che, sì, la storyline romance è importante, ma questo non va mai a discapito dello spazio dedicato al rapporto tra Sawako e le sue amiche. Un gruppo di amiche che si sta allargando, visto che ormai anche Kurumi fa parte della compagnia. In questo volume abbiamo un confronto a cuore aperto tra le due ragazze - con Kurumi che chiede perdono per alcune delle cose poco simpatiche fatte in passato. Kurumi, un po' come nel caso di Ayane, è una ragazza che ha un rapporto complicato con se stessa e con l'ambiente che la circonda. Proprio come Ayane, sente per la prima volta il bisogno di impegnarsi per raggiungere un obiettivo - obiettivo che condivide con Sawako. Le due si spronano a vicenda, si fanno coraggio. Insomma, anche questa è un'amicizia destinata a durare.

Poi c'è la questione "litigio", che ci mostra ancora una volta l'evoluzione di Sawako, che ormai si sente talmente a suo agio nel suo rapporto con Shota (e con le amiche) da non avere più timore ad esprimere la sua opinione. Da non avere più paure a fare affidamento su di lui. Frequentare due università diverse non significa per forza mettere fine al loro rapporto. E Kazehaya sa benissimo che non ha alcun diritto di chiedere a Sawako di seguirlo o di dirle cosa deve o non deve fare. E così torna il sereno (spero vivamente che il tempo delle incomprensioni sia finito).

Un ultimo appunto: la situazione tra Ayane e Pin - un risvolto abbastanza prevedibile, visto l'andazzo degli ultimi volumi. Certo, non mi fa impazzire questa storia insegnante/allieva (anche se lui al momento non si è accorto di nulla), ma voglio vedere come verrà gestita la cosa.

this book is scarily overdue but i don't regret the amount of money i'm going to have to hand over to the library, it was absolutely worth it to hang on to this volume until i got around to reading it

i honestly don't know why i waited so long, like did i forget how much i love everyone in this story? did i forget how much joy the love they all have for each other brings me? was i afraid i would give myself a sore throat from all the happy little screams i had to let out every time sawako builds her relationships with kazehaya and her friends?

(sawako and kurumi did a number on my throat this volume but i don't care!!! i love them!!!!!!!!!!!!! also )

i'm going to cry so hard when this story is over, i can already feel it ;_;

The last time I read a volume of Kimi ni Todoke was over 4 years ago. The series was stalling for me, and so I decided to take a break. Revisiting this series after such a long time was not hard at all; perhaps it's a tribute to the manga-ka's character development that I felt like I was revisiting old friends and able to jump right back into the story from where I left off without any problems. The story is a gentle telling of high school students as they prepare to graduate, pursue dreams, and maybe even say goodbye to friends as they move on with their lives.

i’m so happy kurumi and sawako are becoming closer ! ayane and pin though… please why it’s so weird. if he wasn’t her literal teacher and she wasn’t in high school it would be fine but… that is not the case so. ew. i already knew something was going to happen so i’ve prepared myself but… come on. if it’s just a crush on her end then whatever that’s fine but i’m a bit concerned.

edit during reading vol. 29: now that she finally told him it’s fine. i was worried for no reason. i guess obviously he wasn’t going to reciprocate.. i was just a bit worried bc you never know lol

I haven't read this series in a while, so it took me a minute to get back into the rhythm. Like, I know who the main characters are but who are these two blonde girls that look exactly alike? (Turns out it was Ayane and Kurumi). And what was this "fight" they had? Most of the volume was a SNORE, but I rounded up because Chizu made me giggle a few times. I loved this series so much in the beginning, but I'm starting to feel like it's beyond stretched out, and I'm ready for it to end. :(

Sweet, but still very slow. I loved the female friendship taking centre stage for a bit, and I do love Ayane's

Well, the book covers of this series are certainly accurate, as the contents of this volume do indeed (mostly) focus on Sawako and Kurumi's relationship. That aside, Sawako and Kazehaya seem to have finally been able to hear each other out after their 'fight', and more developments on the Ayane front.

Home stretch of four more volumes left to go, and then I'll give my series-wide review!

3/5 Another super quick volume. The story is still simmering on the end of high school. Nothing terribly exciting in volume 26. Kurumi has a study sleep over at Sawako's and they hash over their past and their plans for the future.

Sawako and Shota hash out their first quarrel. And Ayane works out some complicated feelings.

Still enjoyable but with out any real conflict or plot development it feel's like it's run it's course.

Sawako and Kurumi on the cover this time.

The last chapter! kyaa I knew it's coming but IT'S CUTE.
Anyway, this volume majorly focus on Kurumi and Sawako's friendship, it's a long time coming but I'm glad they can say what's on their minds and bugging them. I really like their friendship, them being friends.. I don't think any of them think or want it before but it just happened naturally, how despite Kurumi's denial Kuronuma is affected and inspired her to be better and same goes for Kuronuma, they unwittingly help each other.

Por fin Sawako y Kazehaya de sinceraron con el otro.Fue muy bonito que ambos hayan estado pensando todo el tiempo en llamar al otro y en la posibilidad de que el otro esté enojado, se vieron tiernos.

Kurumi cada vez me agrada más, hasta no parece ser quién se nos presentó al principio del manga.
¿Cómo es que Pin se está poniendo más guapo? Ahora me cuesta verlo con los chistes que suele hacer siempre, aunque igual siempre me hace reír este personaje y cada vez lo estimo más.

I love that Kurumi truly apologized to Sawako for the past. She definitely regrets it and I’m glad to see her and Sawako become so close. Who knew liking the same guy would help you become friends later on?

And the ending with Yano and Pin!?! I KNEW IT!!!! I sensed this happening VOLUMES AGO!!! Will anything happen though? He’s older and has always said that he doesn’t like “kids”… But god, I love that love finds you when you least expect it!!!!

La verdad que Kurumi siempre me cayó muy mal y la amistad con Sawako me parece un poco forzada, pero no puedo negar que tuvo un buen desarrollo de personaje.

Ayane y Pin? odio esa pareja, no entiendo porque tienen que darle una pareja si o si a ella, acaba de salir de una justamente porque necesita tiempo para ella y ya le meten otro interes??
