I really like this book. I am still concerned about this "new Shizumazu".........*thinking*. As Asumi loses her rocket-shaped keychain, Shizumazu finds it and wants to give it back to her. I found that sweet. Also that is my favorite part. *wink*

This volume had me trying to groan, "Come on! You can't just pull our heartstrings like this in every volume!" but I couldn't muster a groan through all the ugly sobbing that was happening. Damn you, Yaginuma!
I don't read a lot of manga, but this one is so sweet and touching, I just can't stop.
Sweet, funny, sad. Still love this series.
