Absolutely beautiful chapter. The rain continued to fall from last chapter as new set of clouds covered the sky in the shape of Anna. As Mari confessed to her, Anna started to cry as well for not realizing Mari's feelings all this time.

But Mari decides to let go of her feelings for Anna so that Anna can find her happiness. Talk about true love! All she asked for letting her remain as best friends. I never thought of Mari this highly until this chapter. T_T

I am so glad that Tomoya was there for Mari. Maybe she will be able to find happiness as Tomoya promised to treasure her. She felt the warmth in his hands as she allowed him to wrap her on his arms so that she could hide her tears on his chest. :')

As for Natsuki, I loved it how he was on his knees when he assured Anna that Mari will find happiness being with Tomoya so Anna would need to cheer up as well! Best guys always kneel to show how they treasure their girl!

So warm a chapter. 10/5.

Mari seemed surprisingly mature through this chapter. But it seems that she has found her rock in Tomoya so she could at least let go of her feelings for Anna.

It was obvious that something happened to Mari in the past that made turn this way, not being able to stand guys and being overprotective to her only friend. I knew it couldn't be for love related reason. It'd seem odd for a character like her. When I learnt in the anime that she became like this ever since her brother got married, I was thinking if she has some brother complex which is very typical. But at the same time it's unfit for a shoujo anime. Later, several times her overly overprotective actions towards Anna made me wonder if she sees her as "more than a friend". Looks like I was right. To be honest, I don't care about it if she's bisexual or not. Why? Because it's not that she figured out she's bisexual so she grew feelings for Anna. It's because she finally found a "person" who brought back happiness in her life and saved her from being lonely that she grew feelings for that "person". It's not a matter of whether that someone is a guy or girl. What matters is that it's a human! I love how Mizuno-sensei portrayed this controversial matter subtly. It could cause a uproar for a shoujo manga. The situation was dealt with in a mature way. There wasn't a single line about her sexuality and it was accepted easily. Because having "feelings" for someone is a natural thing. No need to get worked up over it! Besides it wasn't said that Mari's feelings for Anna was romantic. It's "more than a friend" type of feeling since "normal friends" don't act like that according to Mari's own words. I don't find a problem because even I want to keep my friends all to myself because I lost many dear people already. I don't care if it's a guy or a girl. This is normal considering the circumstances. So whether people take it as romantic feeling or not depend on the individual. Thank you Mizuno-sensei for bringing forth an uncommon and different type of story!

This was a beautiful chapter! Like @Subunyan mentioned, I also don't care whether Mari develops feelings that are "more than a friend" to a male or female - the fact that they're human is enough! :) It felt very natural, actually. Anna is Mari's only friend, so I think it's natural to be over-protective. It was very touching to see Anna and Mari being honest; grateful to be friends and continue to stay that way. <3

Mattsun's patience, omg!! T_____T Nijiiro Days definitely has amazing male characters! They're all reassuring and genuine. <3

I'm happy for Mari that she has Mattsun by her side! When Mattsun held Mari, and when they held hands...those were such good scenes!! <33

I thank Natsuki for reassuring Anna that Mari will be okay with Mattsun. I agree with @shanimebib that "Best guys always kneel to show how they treasure their girl!" <33 Natsuki's body language truly demonstrated his care for Anna.

I also applaud Mari for having the maturity to let go of her feelings for Anna. :) Sometimes, it's inevitable to get hurt when love enters the picture, but it can bring so much happiness too. >< Natsuki would do his best to make Anna happy, so I think she will be okay with him by her side.

More reason to love Natsuki was when he told Mari that Mattsun really is a good guy! Even though he was thinking of Anna, he also supported his best friend. :)

That development for Mari's character is amazing. I'm surprised that I'm liking her character more now chapter after chapter.
Recommend me an anime
