Dear diary,

I purposely made myself sad today, despite being fairly and properly spoi... i mean warned how this would end in the very first chapter.

The whole jealous younger sibling thing, which I've seen in manga after manga . . . I'm an only, so maybe I just don't get it . . . but does that ever really happen? It seems like one of these notions that superficially looks like it could make some sense but is pretty much nonexistent. Like, in real life does anyone ever give a damn about their older sibling dating unless they're with a total douchebag?

The younger sibling seeing their older sibling's new friends or a potential lover as a rival for the older sibling's affection, is more likely if the sibling are close knit.

I'm close with my young niece, and she gets a little possessive when I hang out with my friends when she is around.

at this point in the story, i'm convinced the only person that likes to be around shizuku is kaori

ugh this series will be the end of me :')

Well her sister too (probably? Although perhaps they’re not that close)

Well she officially realized she has feelings for Kaori... But this little chapter made me cry far more than it should have T_T. I'm still hoping for a cheesy happy ending where somehow she magically gets saved.. Especially after this chapter. Damnit I can't stop crying and it's almost 2am not the time to be doing that @_@

its tears time

Why are we still here.... Just to suffer?

Well this hurts.

God the pain....

Istg i be crying every chapter

I just woke up you can't be doing this to me this early in the morning, it hurts

This story is turning out quite well, so far at least.

I love Narcissu novels, so it's great to see a romance author tackling a dramatic subject that actually is a thing. Not some weird disaster or strange bad circumstances, but just having to face fragility of human life, head on.

Unlike in old Class S stuff, romantic feelings are real, acknowledged and accepted.

Fucking same. First thing I did when I woke up this morning. I don't know what I expected.

Why are we still here.... Just to suffer?

yes

Dammit, who's cutting onions ;_;

I am not going to handle the ending well, I can tell. I want a deus ex machina or some hidden obvious solution we just didn't see but I know we aren't getting either of those. Better get ready to cry a lot.

Maybe they should go visit her together.

when you found out the title of the english licensed version of this series you'll know we will be having another your lie in april feels trip. T-T.

It seems like Kaori wants her little sister and Shizuku be there for each other if she was to...
This fate is too cruel.

Damn this chapter hit hard. How can it be so beautiful and sad at the same time? I also thought the "I'm still a child" line was quite powerful and showed the degree to which Shizuku has come to understand that she's kind of become stuck since elementary school

Holy shit what a way to kick off Volume 5. I'm consistently amazed at how good this is. The characters are all so real and the emotions so raw. I'm preparing myself for a tragic ending even while hoping there won't be.

This manga feels like a trainwreck I can't look away from. I know there'll be misery and sorrow but I want to see the end.

Glad she's at least figured it out for herself.

Looks like Shizuku has finally realized her own feelings. Took her longer than one would have thought...
