That Blue Sky Feeling, Vol. 2
That Blue Sky Feeling, Vol. 2 | Okura
2 posts | 5 read
A butterflies-in-your-stomach high school romance about two very different high school boys who find themselves unexpectedly falling for each other. Outgoing high school student Noshiro finds himself drawn to Sanada, the school outcast, who is rumored to be gay. Rather than deter Noshiro, the rumor makes him even more determined to get close to Sanada, setting in motion a bittersweet tale of first love. High school senior Noshiro has finally broken down the emotional walls that his gay classmate, Sanada, had put up, and their new friendship is growing. But when Sanada's childhood friend Ayumi reveals that she's always liked him, and new student Makoto arrives on the scene with a crush of his own, their situation gets even more complicated.

Super cute, just like volume 1. It‘s been a lot of fun watching the relationships between all of these characters develop, and seeing such strong jealousy dynamics play out in this volume. I‘m also always a huge sucker for school festival scenes.
This is also one of my bonus reads for the #FabulousFebruary readathon.

When I was a teen, I hated the way Viz Media translated anime and manga, I didn‘t like that they romanized onomatopoeias, and didn‘t like that they dropped Japanese honorifics. Turns out, I still don‘t like them. I could be wrong, but I don‘t think this taiyaki sign is supposed to advertise cream-filled croissants 🤔 (I mean, it might have though. It could be taiyaki up top and croissants on the bottom) #manga #complaining

wanderinglynn Taiyaki can be filled with chocolate, cheese, custard, and even satsumaimo (sweet potato). 3y
wanderinglynn Oh and here in Japan, there is a croissant taiyaki which is a modern take on the traditional taiyaki. There‘s a place that specializes in the croissant taiyaki. 3y
Kenyazero @wanderinglynn I did know about the different fillings (I‘ve only had red bean and I suspect it‘ll be my favorite!) but I didn‘t know about taiyaki croissants! I bet they‘re amazing 😮 3y
wanderinglynn I do like the satsumaimo taiyaki. But I love the Japanese sweet potato. The local ice cream store, Blue Seal, has sweet potato ice cream, Ube (which is the Tagalog word for purple mountain yams). It is my fave! 😋 3y
Kenyazero @wanderinglynn That sounds absolutely amazing 🤩 3y
