Synopsis:As spring arrives, Hiroki's job hunt is in full swing. Nobuko, meanwhile, is thinking about the future - and in the process, must confront the truth of how she feels. When the choice is between the man she loves and the job she's grown attached to, there is no easy answer. The lives and loves of many now approach a crossroads...
The 19th volume of A Side Character’s Love Story by Akane Tamura doesn’t feature Hiroki very much, and even Nobuko really does feel like a side character at times. There’s so much focus in this volume on her new friends, and Hiroki and Nobuko don’t even see each other… which isn’t necessarily bad, but they also don’t interact very much, and I do miss that.
Hopefully the next volume will remember to spend a little time with the two of them, even if it means they have to have one of their discussions…
In the meantime, Nobuko’s new friends/coworkers have their own love stories going on, with different problems and different needs, and they’re fun to read about too.

My library has tons of manga, on paper and on ebooks, but not this one for some reason. I checked, actually 1 library in the whole of the US has it!
Huh, interesting! I read quite a lot of the series through Kindle Unlimited, though I don’t know if it’s on KU in the US/whether that’s something you use!
