BEACH CHAPTER BEACH CHAPTER BEACH CHAPTER
January 7, 2023
I love the focus on platonic relationships, and the boys just living life and learning stuff along the way. This manga is like a warm cup of soup, truly so good for the soul.

I have NO idea why I waited so long to read this!! I laughed SO much reading about these guys' goofs and was such a joy to read!!
I think it's interesting that Souma's story has increasingly had a little more "depth" to his chapters compared to the other guys in the sense he is searching and looking for how he can grow and contribute his skills for/with society. He definitely still has his goofs! But it's different when it comes to his chapters because I always feel I'm inspired to make a difference too. <3
It was SOOOOOO wonderful seeing Hayate in fangirl mode! Oh my goodness I loved it so much! He's been my favorite out of everyone and definitely still continues to be in this one, especially when it comes to our newest guy, Motoharu, who also happens to be his favorite author!
Mima-san was wonderful as always! I love how he is the father-like figure among these guys and even at one point says that he felt Shun was like his nephew. It made my heart happy. <3 I also especially love what he does to help prepare for his next PR job because it was hilarious! Can't say I wouldn't be the same! LOL!
Shun is as cute as ever (even if he wouldn't like me saying so LOL)! I really adore his character and love getting more of his chapters and just seeing him on page!
Motoharu is AWESOME! I confess I was skeptical at first of him (just because I already loved the four guys as it is), but he really brings our group of guys together and brings his own silliness that is perfectly right at home. Can't wait to see more of him in the next volume too!
Another absolute gem of a volume and can't wait for the next one to release!

This series is genius. Always makes me laugh so hard. I love those dorks.

This is fast becoming my favorite slice-of-life series. It's cute and funny and no one is dating a high schooler so it's better than most of the manga I've read.
May 7, 2023
So many relatable goofs! I really like that the characters are different ages and find ways to help each other out, whether that's tutoring, life advice, or getting away for a fun day at the beach.
January 20, 2023
Cute, however less engaging than previous volumes for me. I liked seeing Souma deal with imposter syndrome regarding his graphic design work. The concept of the crew going to the beach was cute, but the execution wasn't as fun as I was expecting. Still a cute series, though

This is a very chill series. There isn't any drama or much happening, just the clumsiness of the guys.
I don't find this series very funny either, it's just one of those series you read and then forget about once you're done.

This is such a fun series, very quiet and calming.. took me a few volumes to adjust, but I really like it!

Ich liebe die Jungs und ihre Abenteuer einfach. Richtige Comfort-Reihe!

I can relate so much with Shiki-kun when it comes to design work. This volume was just the thing I needed today.

Après ma lecture du troisième tome, je me suis aussitôt jetée sur le quatrième. Autant profiter de l’avoir sous la main pour le dévorer n’est ce pas. C’est évidemment, encore une fois, un gros coup de coeur. De toute façon, plus les tomes passent et plus je tombe sous le charme de cette histoire. C’est ma petite bulle de bonheur en quelques sortes, je me sens si bien pendant que je lis un tome. Ça apaise mon petit coeur, vraiment une bouffée d’air frais ce manga!
Dans ce quatrième tome, qu’est-ce qui réunit nos cinq protagonistes, aux âges et aux occupations divers et variés ? Eh bien, en un mot : les gaffes ! L’un d’entre eux, l’étudiant en arts Sôma Shiki, compte bien profiter des vacances d’été pour partir à la recherche de ses talents. Au fil des maladresses au festival et à la plage, quels talents éblouissants Sôma a-t-il fini par se trouver ? Toujours plus de bourdes de nos beaux gosses maladroits, mais toujours aussi cool, dans le quatrième volume de cette comédie d’étourdis !
Encore un tome tout simplement excellent à lire. On continue de suivre nos personnages, de voir leurs vies, leurs questionnement mais surtout leurs étourderies. Et ici on en a encore des belles. Ils ne cesseront de me surprendre ceux là. Je trouve que l’arrivée de Motoharu apporte un vrai quelque chose. Ce mec est pétillant, toujours le sourire, l’enthousiasme pur. Et je trouve que son arrivée dans le groupe est vraiment chouette. Puis bon, lui aussi quand il est étourdi il ne le fait pas à moitié. J’ai beaucoup aimé Sôma dans ce tome. Il a envie de tester pleins de nouvelles choses, de laisser sa créativité s’exprimer. Mais il se pose également beaucoup de questions. Le voir perturbé comme ça, ça m’a un peu peiné pour le coup. Mais heureusement, il réussit à rebondir et reprendre confiance en lui. J’ai adoré le voir s’épanouir comme ça en réalisant des pochettes de CD ou encore des étiquettes pour des paquets de cadeaux et j’en passe. J’aime suivre les autres également dans leur vie mais j’avoue avoir une petite préférence pour Sôma!
Il me tarde de pouvoir découvrir le prochain tome. Je sais déjà que je vais me régaler et surtout que ça sera un coup de coeur. Mon instinct ne se trompe jamais. Ce manga c’est vraiment un bonbon, l’histoire est si douce c’est hyper agréable à lire. C’est drôle, on passe du temps à rire, à sourire et rien que ça c’est merveilleux. Vraiment lisez ce manga il est si bien!

IT'S THE OBLIGATORY BEACH EPISODE.
Summer is here and the boys are going to the beach. And I think every beach episode from now on just needs a bunch of forgetful, kind of spacey characters to add a bit more....flavor to the beach-going experience.
My only comment is that I'm loving Souma Shiki's self-discovery journey along this series. He's really doing his best to achieve his dreams and the doubts he has along the way are just so relatable. Imposter syndrome is just such a real thing - you got this Souma!
10/10 this volume did not disappoint.
Please release volume 5 soon!

SO CUTE. I feel like they were even cuter in this volume than they were in the previous volumes. Also idk what's going on with me, but I'm feeling extra emotional. Motoharu discovering himself and trying to gain confidence in his own abilities made me tear up!! Like why are my eyes watering right now? Anyway this was a good read. I'm really enjoying all these characters and the relationships they're building. My only problem with books like these is like where do they end? What is the goal we're working towards? Maybe there is none. Idk guess I'm just along for the ride.

Every volume as well as fourth is as cute and charming as always. It was endearing how Motoharu acted with Hayate and I'm interested to see into what kind of friendship that will develop. But my favorite is still Soma and the relatable thoughts and worries he shares.
This series just warms my heart how it tells stories about the little struggles that everyone faces in their life and how to deal with them in a unique way.

More of a 3.5 star rating;
This volume shows how well Igarashi just really blends in with the group and his different dynamics with everyone. Shiki also struggles with some self-confidence issues, which was relatable but, also a bit sad to see. Also, everyone went to the beach which was amusing and very lovely to see since they really enjoyed their time at/near the ocean.

“the world is filled to the brim with nice things…
and all of them are carrying someone’s intentions and feelings.”
”when those feelings get across and manage to make someone happy…
…i gain little pieces of confidence…
…that i’ll gather together and carry with me as i move on.”
yeah, this volume was definitely my favorite so far. souma supremacy! ❤️

This series is too calming… I literally fell asleep reading this volume… This is definitely a slice of life kind of series. There’s no drama or romance of any kind (and that’s fine!). Just fyi.
I’m not sure if I’ll continue reading this series…

Very cute slice of life series, this volume touches on insecurities and concerns of the main characters and gives them more depth towards them and their goals and personalities. Really well done while still being light hearted.

Loooove how this book felt with Souma’s imposter syndrome and other things. I like that it’s just dudes hanging out and being completely platonic and not doing anything weird with the overage and underaged characters (COUGH COUGH GO FOR IT AGAIN NAKAMURA) really cute

I'm way more of a yuri or shōjo manga fan than anything else but this little series has kinda captivated and delighted me. It's very sweet without being over the top, and I find myself enjoying each of the viewpoints and little storylines equally. I loved the summer vibes in this one so so much.

A beach volume !!! Eeeh that was so adorable !! I loved it !! Also then all going to the movie !! And the reaction to meeting his favourite author was so on point. It was like I was looking in a mirror !! And I’m so excited to see what new story comes from the 5 of them hanging out !!

3.70 - Average
Less clumsy moments and more everyday interactions that enforce epiphanies. Characters have similiar thought patterns with different personalities. Focused yet subtle character development. A theme of coincidences and youth.

Ok… I enjoyed the second half of this one more than any of the others. The first half though still didn’t hit for me. Will I pick up the next one… we shall see. If I find it at a good enough deal, I may think on it, but it’s not one I can see myself continuing if paying full price.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ - it was good.
