Komomo Confiserie Vol.5

*sigh* It is finished.I am happy (though I wish we could have seen more of an epilogue of sorts at the end).I feel a little sappy because I teared up in a few places. I feel in many ways we see this series go full circle and it was refreshing, rewarding, and heart clenching.Natsu I will say is stubborn and sometimes acts NOT smart, but I am glad that we learned more about his feelings and got an overall "insight" into his history. It made up for the parts where you just want to shake him for saying something so insensitive.Komomo really wrecked my heart in one spot. Man, that was hard to see and read! But she is such a brave young woman! It made me happy to see the mangaka mention in the sidebars how much she loved Komomo because she is such a special heroine. I have deeply enjoyed being on this journey with her and very happy she got a happy ending! <3This is a solid series and would recommend to those who are looking for a more "mature" shojo manga and deeply enjoy seeing character growth while they bake and serve sweets.

It was just under a year ago that I bought the first volume of Komomo Confiserie. With this new volume, the series wraps up and it has all the charm that made the saga of Komomo so special. We see Komomo learning that her family's fortunes have recovered and she is expected to go back to the mansion prior to her wedding to a prearranged fiancee. As for Natsu, he seems in denial about just how deep his feelings for Komomo really go. We are shown scenes from Komomo's and Natsu's early years, which tells us a lot about them. A romantic triangle forms, but without giving too much away, the ending is just perfect. Probably the best part of the series was watching how Komomo, once out of the cocoon of her family's money, emerged as a sensitive and caring young woman. Komomo Confiserie may not have been a huge title in the manga world, but this series can be highly recommended to anyone looking for a great romantic story.

I loved this story so much.. The final development between them happened a bit too fast in comparison to the previous developments in the story but... That is life, I guess.Over all, very sweet (haha) and gotta say Komomo is still a boss <3

just what we wanted
