The previous volume ended at Christmas so now the kids are on school break.
Sawako's birthday is Dec 31 and she and her friends make plans to go to the shrine for New Year's.

Then we jump forward to the new semester and Valentine's Day.
Sheesh, didn't you teens do anything interesting over break?!

Ughhhhh soooo good until the end! LOL! Have I mentioned I REALLY don't like Kurumi?? Why can't Sawako see the truth about her?!

*deep breath*

Anyway, SO many wonderful romantic vibes and feels in this one and SO many great steps to our romance FINALLY being a romance! Yes yes yes! Sawako was SO cute and it's great to see her making even more friends!

I simply love how beautiful this relationship is between Sawako and Kazehaya! They are so adorable and it is sooooo cute seeing them together!

Now if a certain rival would just stay out the picture...

Reseña completa---> http://bit.ly/2FHqvmX


Este séptimo tomo viene cargado de emociones y muchos momentos muy bonitos y que marcarán un antes y un despúes en la historia, por un lado tenemos la primera navidad con amigos de Sawako, quién toda su vida había pasado estas fechas en compañía de sus padres pero ahora las inquietudes de amistad y romance están ahí, también veremos el primer cumpleaños de Sawako en compañía de sus amigos y Kazehaya, una visita de año nuevo al templo y el ansiado y esperado Día de San Valentín donde Sawako pondrá a prueba su valor para entregarle a Kazehaya chocolates hechos por ella misma, a la par veremos como comienza a cambiar la relación entre Ryu y Chizu y como debajo de esa amistad siempre hubo algo más. Conforme el manga va avanzando más y más deja ese aire “lento” de los primeros 5 tomos y comienza a tomar una profundidad que pocos mangas tienen, si tenemos escenas divertidas o momentos chistosos pero también muchos momentos reflexivos que nos hablan sobre el crecimiento, la amistad, el amor, el descubrimiento de quiénes somos y a dónde vamos y mucho más. Ya en la entrada anterior del tomo #6 les comenté que este manga se había vuelto uno de mis favoritos y poco a poco se va colocando más y más como una historia que se quedará conmigo mucho tiempo y que se que volveré a leer y releer por varias razones, pero la primera y principal es que Sawako y yo somos muy parecidas, hoy en día ya no tanto pero cuando iba en Secundaria era muy como ella, súper tímida, muy solitaria y siempre suspirando y anhelando porque otras personas de fijaran en mí, siempre deseando ser más y ser mejor para que la gente quisiera ser mi amiga, no fue hasta que entré a la Universidad que me di cuenta que yo no tenía que cambiar, que quiénes me quisieran así pues vale quiénes no pues ni modo, además toda mi vida fue algo rara por ser lectora desde pequeña, en primaria me encantaba quedarme en la mini biblioteca leyéndo libros de alfaguara infantil y del Barco de Vapor mientras los demás jugaban fútbol, platicaban o lo que sea que hicieran :v. Así que para mí Kimi Ni Todoke es una ventana desde donde me veo cuando era pequeña, Sawako es un reflejo de como fue mi infancia y creánme que en cada ocasión que la veo crecer se me infla el corazón de orgullo.

This manga series follows a girl called Kuronuma and she has the looks that would be perfect for a ghost in a horror movie, but everyone has her misunderstood. Through her friendship with the popular boy in class, Kazehaya, her classmates start to realise that she's not this feared figure that she is thought to be. Kuronuma has just realised her feelings for Kazehaya and is learning to deal with them and still maintain the friendship that she has with Kazehaya.

This volume follows their New Year's Eve celebrations, which also happens to be Kuronuma's Birthday. This is the first time that I could imagine Kuronuma and Kazehaya as a couple. Before this, we just see them have crushes on each other, but this volume gives us a glimpse of what them as a couple could be like. Consequently, it makes this volume the cutest one that I've read so far. Plus it's literally a volume of all my favourite scenes of the manga. I can't wait to read more!

Now that the preliminaries of establishing friendships and recognizing one's own feelings are done with, the author has moved ahead on the plot to get Sawako and Kazehaya together as a couple, and, as expected for these two shy fluffballs, it's moving slowly but cutely. They spend New Year's/Sawako's birthday together, after which we get a dramatic Valentine's Day episode in which the big question of chocolates is breached.

(For those of us from North America/Europe who don't know how this works, in Japan Valentine's Day is almost the exact opposite than what it is for us. Instead of the guys, it's the girls that give chocolates as a way to express their feelings. They can be love chocolates or obligatory chocolates, and the difference between the two is pretty self-explanatory. If the guy accepts the love chocolates, that's an indication that he returns the girl's feelings, and on White Day in March, he returns the favour via a present. Up to you which tradition you prefer, if any.)

Anyways, at the end we also get our first glimpse of Kent, who will become a great character to get the plot moving forward--next volume, please!

This series never disappoints for me. So sweet and funny - the awakening of young love at its best. And for fans of anime, the anime series really captures the written manga so beautifully. I can't wait to see the live action Japanese version of the series make its way to American shores with happy English subtitles...

This is one of my favourite volumes of the series - Sawako and Kazehaya meet at the temple on New Year's, due to some lovely machinations by Chizuru and Ayane. While they don't confess to each other, both manage to talk about the importance of the other in their life... which is why the last chapter is so brutal. Lots of lovely comedy with Chizu and Ayane, too ^^

It is so sweet when Sawako is having inner struggles when it comes to Kazehaya, such as calling him, giving him chocolates... Chizu and Ayane are wonderful friends helping her with the make-up so she can have a date with him.

I loved this volume, it is so cute! This one has Sawako's birthday and Valentine's Day.

Christmas and New Year's had things looking so promising...and then Valentine's Day comes along to screw everything up. So what happens to those amazing looking chocolates anyway?
