Waiting for Spring, Vol. 10

Today's manga post is on Waiting for Spring, Vol. 10 by Anashin, It is 176 pages long and is published by Kodansha Comics. The cover has Mitsuki and Ryuji on it. As it is the tenth in the series, you need to have read the nine previous volumes to understand the story. The intended reader is someone who likes coming of age stories, high school love stories and sports stories. There is no foul language, no sex, and no violence in this manga. The story is told from third person close of the characters. There Be Spoilers Ahead.

From the back of the manga- IN HOT WATER
With Aya's leg injured, Mitsuki wants nothing more than to see him fully recovered. And to everyone's surprise, Towa wants to help! He uses his grandfather's connections to arrange a group trip to a hot spring that will help Aya heal. Aya is reluctant to go at first, but Mitsuki manages to change his mind. Can Hо̄jо̄'s star player really become friends with the rest of the guys...?

Review- Towa and Mitsuki have some good moments in this volume but the important thing in this volume is more understanding between Aya and Towa. They are both passionate players and have strong feelings for Mitsuki. Mitsuki has some important conversations with both and she gets more understanding of both boys. This series is very sweet without getting too sappy or too serious, just a nice story about young love, growing up and how sports brings people together. I look forward to the next volume. 

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.
