This is such a cute series. I know some people don't like how slow it moves but I really enjoy that aspect of it. I love that the girls are taking time to get to know each other and actually feel their feelings before acting on them. Overall, a cute volume and I can't wait for the next one!

This volume is almost entirely from Koyuki's perspective, which, while it doesn't help us get a handle on Konatsu, does nicely advance the romance plot by showing us how Koyuki is truly falling in love with Konatsu. She's almost growing dependent on the other girl, which is an issue that the story will eventually have to work on, because ultimately they can't be just like the frog and the salamander - and neither would they want to be, because then the salamander (Koyuki) would have to kill the frog (Konatsu). That's an issue that Koyuki's beginning to become aware of, and I'm looking forward to how she handles it when volume five comes out.
