Pretty much a fluffy, breezy and feel-good read all throughout the book. I can tell this sort of stuff will be popular due to its innocent and sweet nature; personally I thought it was a bit plain and would rather prefer a few more accents in the story. There's basically nothing standing in the couple's ways, so the fact that they could end up happy together didn't exactly bring a lot of emotional impact. And there's not much interesting happening in the first place, and each chapter could feel more and more repetitive when it's basically a rehash of the previous one.
I found this series very pleasant and beautiful.
It had a sweet, simple plot that concentrated on how love develops throughout the four seasons.
There was no angst, no drama. Just pure love.
I really hope Fujitani-sensei makes a sequel for this couple!
Sometimes a quiet story can still be moving and beautiful. It's easy to get tired of quiet stories, but some of them stand out, and this one is one of those gems. I hope it comes out in English some day!
I was really pleased with this series. It was subtle, sweet and charming. There was a definite absence of the usual boy-love angst and drama, which made it that much better. I'm definitely looking forward to more of this mangaka's works.
Gives a very warm feeling, yes, but it was a bit dissatisfying because nothing really 'happens'. There are a bunch of sweet stories that chronicle the protagonists' relationship. But I think it doesn't mean much if there aren't any obstacles.
I don't really consider Kazushi moving to America while Harutomo stayed behind an 'obstacle' because it didn't really affect their relationship in any manner. I didn't even feel that they were so far apart. Maybe the managaka stressed more on seasons and food rather than an actual story for the characters.
A relaxing read if you're just looking for quiet mush, I guess.
What? This is slow-paced? I think the story is pretty quick to jump a year or two... But even so, it surprised me how bland and boring (not to mention overused) this plot is. Why is this even popular? Don't misunderstand me; I'm all for the slice of life genre, but this is not memorable, the characters are flat and stereotypical, the plot is unoriginal and the art is mediocre at best (and the smut was IMO boring too).
Not impressed. At. All.
honestly, these two... I hate them. they work just TOO hard! I wanted them to meet some hardships because of that attitiude of theirs, but in the end I was left high and dry. this manga is not bad, but ugh. I feel so annoyed after reading it; I wish I had never came across this title.
