Daytime Shooting Star, Vol. 8

Today's manga post is on Daytime Shooting Star, Vol. 8 by Mika Yamamori. It is 192 pages long and is published by Shojo Beat. The cover has Suzume and Yuyuka on it. As it is the eighth in the series, you need to have read the first seven volumes to understand the story. The intended reader is someone who likes shojo coming of age stories. There in no foul language, no sex, and no violence in this manga. The story is told from third person close of the main character, Suzume. There Be Spoilers Ahead.

From the back of the manga- Suzume has moved to Tokyo and is living with her uncle. Mr. Shishio’s change of heart causes Suzume to shut herself up in her room. When Suzume's mother returns to their hometown for a brief stay, Suzume makes the sudden decision to return home. But Yuyuka and Suzume's other Tokyo friends are determined to bring her back.

Review- So Mr. Shishio's choice to end the relationship with Suzume throws her into depression and uncertainty. She does not know what she wants anymore and when her mother is home, Suzume runs back home. There she hopes to clear her head. But her friends in Tokyo are worried that she will never return. So they follow her, including Mamura. I really enjoyed this volume now that the student-teacher relationship is over. It is also nice to Yuyuka moving on from her crush on Mamura and being open to new people. I look forward to the next volume and seeing what drama is going to happen next. 

I give this volume a Four out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I bought this manga with my own money.
