Synopsis

After their classes are dismissed, Okuto Nakamura and Aiki Hirose decide to travel back home together. While walking on a quiet street, Hirose insists that they kiss, with Nakamura succumbing to his request and returning the ardent passion. As it turns out, this is all but a dream—and Nakamura wakes up being sucked on by his pet octopus instead!

Since the start of the school year, 16-year-old Nakamura has harbored feelings for Hirose. His timidness results in him having few friends and unlikely to profess his love. However, he has made progress, and the pair are now proper friends. With an eventful summer season looming ahead, Nakamura's pursuit for love continues!

More of the same, kind of does not go anywhere, but not bad at all! I still highly recommend it for everyone!

"Motto Ganbare! Nakamura-kun!!" does not disappoint, but also does not give the "ending" we expect. It is still the same: a funny, comfy and interesting BL love story. There are new characters that are as interesting as the others, but they are just... there, you know. 
I loved the first part, and this, as much as it did not give us much of an ending for their relationship, it kept the idea and vibe of the story. 

Now the problem is that, indeed, it does not ...

Story: 6 | Story is simple, a closeted gay who wants to confess to his crush one day, and the manga revolves around that premise along with some enjoyable side-stories. Since it's short, not much has happened since it's prequel. When it comes to romance, I prefer progress so points taken off here.

Art: 7 | I like the art, reminds me of old manga, no complaints here.

Character: 6 | There are no notable characters in the story imo, they're generic but good enough. I only remember Nakamura and Hirose, and that weird teacher that Hirose kept hanging out with. I don't like how the mangaka ...

I was originally excited for this sequel because of all the possibilities where the main pair's relationship could go. After reading it though, I was left with disappointment. Simply, the main pair's relationship doesn't go anywhere from where the prequel left it off. This sequel feels unnecessary and Nakamura somehow feels even more of an outsider to the love interest, Hirose's life than he was in the prequel as this book barely offers the main pair genuine moments of connection between them.

There are so many points in this book that just fail me to root for Nakamura and say “go for it, Nakamura!” because he ...
