The second volume was just as amazing as the first one. I absolutely can not wait for more volumes of this.

Still really enjoying this series! I appreciate Taka's openness with Ema about her past feelings for her, and I'm hoping this means things will pick up in the next books. Nothing feels rushed and I find the dynamic of the two women to be sweet and intriguing; there is some palpable tension and a potentially very complicated situation, so we'll see how things continue to blossom between these two!

Amy Uozumi's story of two women reunited a decade after their friendship ended in middle school, is touching. Taka has never before thought about her sexuality, Ema has thought about nothing other than Taka, even though she is married. The story takes time to make this lesbian x married bisexual make sense,and even allows room for lesbians at a lesbian bar to find Taka's emotional development cute, rather than ridiculous.

Uozumi's art is pleasant "Josei" style of manga that focuses on emotional impact over detailed backgrounds.

Overall, a solid volume of a classic-feeling manga about adult women catching feelings.

Pink Candy Kiss picks up where the last volume left off both literally and in my sentiments about it. It was as likable as the first volume, and the tension between the two characters was amped up. Their chemistry versus the reality of their circumstances makes for a very compelling narrative.
It was nice to see our lead Takara with the help of a friend dig a little bit deeper into understanding her sexuality, and I'm really interested to continue this series. I enjoyed the introduction of some new supporting characters, and I'm excited to see where the story takes them as well. Definitely a great read for June!

This is volume two of this series and I'm even more in love with it than I was with the first volume. It's so deeply romantic, with a hint of tragedy because of the nature of this romance (love triangles are always a little bit tragic). I'm also a fan of the main character learning a new thing about themselves after their an adult. As people, we're always learning more, even past when we think we know everything. I'm excited to see where the story goes.

Thank you NetGalley and Viz Media for the digital ARC of “Pink Candy Kiss” vol. 2! I was a big fan of the first volume, and I was pleased with this next installment. Ema and Takara’s romance is slow burn at this point, both of them dancing around fully confessing their love, so only a bit of progress is made unfortunately. I was happy we got a little bit of Ema’s perspective and could confirm that the feelings are mutual! The art and paneling is beautiful, and the character interactions are so cute. There was a bit of a cliffhanger, was that Ema she spotted? I can’t wait to read the next volume to find out! If you’re looking for a thoughtful yuri manga that isn’t just another high school romance, I recommend giving this manga a try.
