| THIS IS A MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER. ---------------------------------------- I loved this manga! One of the best yuri I have ever read! |
    |
| This is the second yuri I've ever read and I really enjoyed it. I couldn't stop reading it and I was sad that there wasn't more. |
| After reading Octave a second time I think it would be so much better if it didn't have as much drama. It seemed like it never ended. |
| I loved this manga also! I do agree it did have a lot of drama but I think it worked. I felt so terrible at certain points and hated a few characters.. I enjoyed that this was not a high school thing. (I like the high school ones also but.. I think Octave goes to show that life outside of school can be very very interesting also.) I was pleased with the ending but wish I could have seen when they actually got home. |

| It was an alright read. The drama was a little tedious sometimes. I love Setsuko though. I need a Setsuko type in my life right now, please. |
 |
| not the best manga but it wasnt bad either. setsuko was great and i dont know why but i liked shiori too. yukino is without a doubt the character i hate the most and i dont get the hate for the concert guy, it was yukino's fault after all :P |

I need a Setsuko type in my life right now, please. i would agree with the setsuko thing. i've read in some commentaries how they hated setsuko when she already started being too "dramatic" but i cant think anything else but that it's a proof of how she was changed by loving Miya-chan so much and i still think she's really cool despite everything she's gone through. very mature in their relationship most of the time (with a twist of some childishness thats very lovable). i'd totally kiss and date someone with any resemblance to her. |
| I was really afraid to read the last two chapters, I thought it was going to have a bad ending but I'm glad how things worked out. I do empathise with Yukino's character, she has made some pretty bad choices and lacked confidence but now she's realised her flaws and is going to take a chance - sometimes you have to do just that to achieve things. I like that they are going back to Yukino's home town to explain their relationship. Now I absolute love Setsuko, I kept wishing she was my girlfriend. I like the different sides of her that were revealed as the manga went by. This is the best Yuri manga I've read, I don't care forthe overly cutesy type. This felt real and life goes on for them, it ended perfectly. *added to favourites* |

I wish the author wrote more revolving around these two :( I miss Setsuko <3 Every now and again I can't help but reread a few chapters. It's sinfully good no matter how (imo) annoying Yukino can get. |
| Well that was mundane. Didn't feel like much was actually resolved. |
| This was a great little heart warming story that made me worry from time to time. |
 |
| liked the manga overall, but it was not THAT good. main cause is Yukino, honestly, bad main character is bad 6/10 |
 |
| I really love this manga. Proof that I read it in two days haha I really loved Setsuko's character, but I think Yukino was pretty lame. She was whining non-stop and when she "finally" accepted reality and realized what she did wrong, I still felt like nothing changed in her at all. I also disliked how Yukino always needed someone to encourage her, to "force" her to change or do something good on her own. While Setsuko was always independent, knew what she was doing, yet she still had a very caring personality. And she rarely ever needed someone's help. I also feel like this whole Sakai dude thing should have been resolved. So, now Setsuko works with a guy who banged her girlfriend and she doesn't even know? It just feels so bad. I also wished Yukino and Miya reconciled, like, talking about their past, how Yukino was jelly of Miya and how they both always depended on each other. Yet all I got was the two talking about Yukino's love life. And the two (Setsuko and Yukino) never visited Mari :D I was also disappointed in that lesbo model-singer-something who had a thing for Yukino. I thought it would have been nice if the two became good friends and give tips to each other and stuff. And in the end this girl turned out to be an envious b*tch. Anyways, it was a very nice manga, but I wish more things should have been resolved. |
| W...wait. THAT WAS THE ENDING?!? |
  |
| Great manga. I loved how mature and serious the overall tone was. I didn't like Yuniko, though. Setsuko deserves someone much better. |
 |
| Overall this was a pretty cute read. Yukino is confusing in terms of character growth but i feel like she'll get there eventually. Setsuko is great ugh loved her. Wish that they didn't drop all of the other side characters because her idol friend was pretty interesting and i wish they delved into the brothers character a little bit more but Quick, enjoyable, a little overdramatic (and lot os face palming at Yukino's decisions) but really a solid piece. |
 |
| Not going to lie, I feared the ending and the possibility of yukino ending up with someone else. mainly because of a commenter who said yukino should have dated mari Like others said, the drama felt like they would never stop coming at times, but in a way I think this is true to real life. Especially if someone was in yukino's shoes. I wish we could have seen more of the other side characters by the end as well. Like Yukino's reaction to Mika singing the song Setsuko wrote. |
 |
| The ending bumps my score up to an 8. My thought: What this ending makes me feel is that, there may be lots of problems that will come their way, but Yukino is finally willing to take the first step forward. It's not necessarily the 'right' choice, but from now on, one day, she will be able to look back and laugh, and think, 'ah, I've had a good life'. This ending is not the end point of their relationship, unlike most manga's ending like to insinuate, this entire 36 chapters were just a part of their journey, and for sure, there is certainly more to come. Though, I still have to say, I don't really like Yukino, but I am at least happy for her. This series at the beginning could have been a 9 or 10 I feel, the potential was there. After the cheating chapter, I just feel so disgusted, the series fell off my ranking. It was an ups and downs experience after that. It is a series I probably will never read again, but certainly unique for what it was, in a sense. |

| this was really nice to read for the most part, it was definitely not a perfect manga but i liked it for what it was and was surprised that things were so resolved/ happy at the end. the drama got really repetitive mostly because of yukino's character flaws but i like where they left off with her and setsuko. |
 |
| Yukino is horrible and encourages me not to be like her on my bad moments. |
| overall, decent manga. probably some of the better yuri manga out there, much more realistic. however, my biggest issue is that it's very incomplete, to me at least. there was a few things that could have been resolved, so now its feels kind of anti-climatic |

| I've re-read this manga... and now I'm kinda bothered about Yukino's friends relationship. I mean, so they'll never get in contact with each other again? Ah... this things left unanswered or "feel free to think about it" do not please me =( |
 |
| Yukino gets bitch-slapped is still the best part of the manga. God this girl Yukino... Setsuko just had to knock some sense into her skull. |
| It was my first yuri manga and it was a good read. I still don't like miya. Setsuko is best, miya doesn't deserve her. |
 "All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost." |
| it was a decent yuri but i have to say i was unsatisfied with the ending as i felt it could have used at least a few more chapters i wanted to see them tell her mom and to see her reaction to it i wanted to see more of what their future would have been like in the end just felt it left us hanging wanting to know will they be happy ect cause honestly the end felt like they finally reach the point where they finally changed not to mention it also felt like they lost pretty much everyone else that was part of their lives idk it just felt like it wasnt complete at all felt like it was suppose to continue a bit more but just ended but it is what it is nonetheless it was a pretty interesting yuri series but is one id not like to read again tbh btw Yukino had to have been the most annoying mc in a yuri i have ever seen so far like it was not till the end that she even felt even a little bit likable but yeah all i had left to say about this series |

| "one step at a time" |
| I agree that the ending felt too abrupt there were some things left hanging that should have been resolved. Was still a good read though not a great one. Yuki was a character hard to support, seemed to be good at destroying relationships with others given her hesitancy to be honest with herself and Setsuko. Given the path this took I was worried at something coming along to break them up at the last moment but glad that didn't happen. Can settle on high 7 for score. |
