Daytime Shooting Star, Vol. 6

Today's manga post is on Daytime Shooting Star, Vol. 6 by Mika Yamamori. It is 208 pages long and is published by Shojo Beat. The cover has Mamura on it. As it is the sixth in the series, you have to have read the first five volumes to understand the story. The intended reader is someone who likes coming of age stories and first love stories. 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. There Be Spoilers Ahead.

From the back of the manga- Suzume has moved to Tokyo and is living with her uncle. With Mr. Shishio’s true feelings for her out in the open, Suzume tries her best to figure out if they are an item or not. Meanwhile, Mamura grows suspicious of Shishio and Suzume’s relationship.

Review- In this volume Suzume is continuing to questions herself and Mr. Shishio continues to lead her on. But Mamura is getting involved and he is very unhappy with Mr. Shishio. He calls him out on it, as Mr. Shishio is the adult and he is not acting like it. I wish that Suzume could really see herself and Mr. Shishio from the outside and understand how inappropriate this flirtation is. But that is part of the point of the story, for her to learn. I am still willing to go with her on this journey into adulthood and love. 

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.
