Today’s review is on Waiting for Spring, vol 5 by Anashin. It is 176 pages long and is published by Kodansha Comics. The cover is yellow with Aya-chan on it. As it is the fifth in the series you need to have read the first four volumes to understand the story. The intended reader is someone who likes shojo manga, sweet high school love stories, and just a little basketball. There is no foul language, no sex, and no violence in this manga. The story is told from third person close of the main character Mitsuki. There Be Spoilers Ahead.
From the back of the book- IN CIRCLES
Summer vacation is in full swing! When Mitsuki and her friends go to the amusement park together, she's faced with plenty of romantic date spots and superstitions. When she finally works up the courage to ask Towa to ride the Ferris wheel with her, her plans are interrupted and she has to think of another way...but just when Mitsuki's about to throw in the towel, Towa picks up the game right where she left off. Alone together on the Ferris wheel, Towa's confession of a secret past may be more than Mitsuki is ready to hear.
Review- In volume five we pick up right where we left at volume four with Aya-chan winning the Regional Tournament but when he is interviewed he dedicates his win to Mitsuki-chan. She still doesn't understand that he is interested in a romantic relationship with her, and that causes some issues between her and Towa. But Towa was getting his stuff in line and working up the courage to express his feelings for her. All in all not a lot of plot movement in this volume but more getting things in line for the character to move forward. Mitsuki-chan knows that she has feelings for Towa but is unaware of Aya’s towards her. I'm curious where the club is going to go now that Aya and Towa are going to be practicing basketball together.
I give this volume a Five out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I bought this manga with my own money.
