Hiiragi can get quite cute without any warning at all.

I didn't realise Mafuyu and Uenoyama had juniors. If I think about it, I can't remember what year they were in.

Let me rant for a minute there.

Why can't we go on and have nice platonic relationships? Does this manga really need more romantic plots? Don't get me wrong, I love Hiiragi, but does it have to go on and take the direction of every second tropey yaoi manga where everyone is gay all of the sudden?

And I really would like more focus on "Given" members ):

It feels like Natsuki sensei is really good at developing the plot until the beginning of the relationship, and then she just leaves it there. Why. Her writing is really really good, she doesn't need to go to the 'been there done that' place. She started 2 romantic relationships, why can't we see a development there? To begin a relationship is the easy part, really. Plus they are in the same band, can't she really think of developments there?

I really love the realistic feel of this manga, and the relatable and wholesome characters, and it feels like it's been downhill since Haru-Aki plot. And I don't even want to start on the Haru-Aki plot :(

Anyways, glad it came out that quickly, waiting for next volume to be published already :3 (i collect those in German and they are a bit ahead.)

It’s a nice change to see new developments and Hiiragi is such an interesting character. It’s nice that we can see more of other characters.
I realised the pacing is slow and we really want some doki doki moments between the protagonists but this is nice so...

I don't really like the fact how much romantic realationship in Given. In some way I am satisfied when romantic and sexual tension has increasing, but most of the time I want to look more after members of the band from music perspective.
But still I like the manga. It's kind of cute and cozy.
