Tahun baru selalu membuatku semangat karena itu artinya jilid terbaru komik Hai, Miiko! akan diterbitkan! Setelah dikecewakan dengan volume sebelumnya, aku berusaha keras mengatur ekspektasiku saat akan mulai membaca buku ini. Sinopsis di bagian belakang buku ini berhasil membuatku penasaran dengan adanya kalimat "Tappei pun mulai bergerak" 😂; tapi mengetahui kemajuan hubungan antara Tappei dan Miiko selama ini, aku meragukan akan ada pergerakan yang signifikan 🤣. Walaupun aku agak sedih dengan harga komik Hai, Miiko! yang terus naik setiap tahunnya, aku tetap tidak akan melewatkan kisah kehidupan Miiko dan teman-temannya ☺️.

Seperti tahun-tahun sebelumnya, ada satu bacaan wajib yang harus dibaca setahun sekali, yaitu komik Hai, Miiko! karya Ono Eriko. Aku sempat lupa kalau biasanya komik ini rilis di awal tahun karena banyaknya kesibukan di bulan Januari, tapi akhirnya aku bisa membacanya di bulan kedua. Aku yang awalnya semangat untuk mulai membaca jadi agak kaget saat mendapati volume kali ini lebih tipis dari biasanya 😭. Setelah aku cari tahu lebih lanjut, ternyata ada satu cerita (yang terdiri atas 3 bagian) dari komik aslinya yang tidak diterjemahkan ke versi Bahasa Indonesia karena mengandung unsur LGBT di dalamnya. Meskipun aku agak sedih karena jumlah ceritanya yang sedikit (padahal harganya sama 😂), aku tetap penasaran dengan kisah kehidupan Miiko di jilid kali ini 😊.

Setelah menunggu selama hampir setahun, akhirnya Hai, Miiko! Vol. 34 ini terbit juga! 😆 Bagi yang membaca review-ku untuk Hai, Miiko! Vol. 33 atau kalian yang juga mengikut serial komik ini, pasti tahu kenapa jilid ini sangat dinantikan. Setelah sekian lama, Miiko dan kawan-kawan akan lulus dari SD dan menjadi murid SMP 🥲❤️. Rasanya ikut terharu dengan kelulusan mereka karena aku sendiri sudah mengikuti komik ini selama bertahun-tahun 🤣. Seiring dengan bertambahnya usia karakter-karakter yang ada dalam cerita ini, aku menantikan banyak pengalaman dan kisah-kisah menarik yang akan mereka lalui bersama.🥰

"I regret how timid and meek I was back then... always telling myself that I couldn't do anything, never even daring to try. That's definitely something I regret."

On the day that Naho begins 11th grade, she receives a letter from herself ten years in the future. At first, she thought it was a prank; but as the letter's predictions came true one by one, Naho suddenly realizes that the letter might really come from the future. Naho's future self tells her that a new student named Kakeru will be joining her class. The letter begs Naho to watch over him—saying that she's the only person who's able to save Kakeru from a terrible future.

Review for Marmalade Boy Little 1 by Wataru Yoshizumi.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

In the second volume of Marmalade Boy Little, the story continued after the 'double date' event that happened in the previous one. Rikka started to notice that Saku is slowly becoming different from the little boy that she knew from her childhood days. Rena, who decided to join the tennis club to get closer to Saku, was hit on by a boy named Noboru Rokutanda, and she was flattered when Saku came to help her. On the other hand, Aoi is suddenly not as cheerful as he usually was; which Rikka found peculiar. She discovered later that Aoi recently broke up with his girlfriend, making him sullen and broken-hearted. But after his conversation with Saku, it seems that Aoi has made up his mind about something.

Rikka was charmed by a boy named  Aoi Namura, who lent her an umbrella. And a really cute girl called Sasamiya Rena is clearly showing her interest towards Saku.
