atalinay's review against another edition
"If we lose what bound us together, what will be left?"
This volume focuses on loneliness, guilt, and repressing feelings. How relatable. The characters are going through a rough patch, but I have confidence they can work it out. They need some of Kaede's forthrightness, but it's tough for them.
I understand some ppl being irritated with the lack of communication, but to me it makes sense. If she doesn't think her feelings are valid, then confronting the person about it feels doubly guilty, because you are subjecting them to something you don't even think is fair. And so she'd rather stuff down those feelings hoping to eradicate them, but that doesn't really work. I've definitely felt similar to Konatsu, so I feel for her.

Thank you to Edelweiss and the publisher for giving me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Makoto Hagino is back with the next English-translated edition of a Tropical Fish Yearns for Snow. In the last edition, we followed Honami more closely and her emotions. In this book, we took the opposite route and followed Amano. Amano has seen Honami spending time with Kaede and it makes her nervous. When she once had Honami all to herself, she now realizes that things are changing.
This is once again a bit slow like the novel before it. However, I really enjoyed Amano’s perspective of the impending changes with Honami as she prepares to graduate. I do wish the girls relationship and the constant back and forth of not knowing how to communicate would start to grow, because at this point it’s starting to feel a little TOO slow.
I still love the story and find the art incredibly beautiful.
