Farewell, dear friend...

Well, today I purchased the final volume of Furuba in English. It's very surreal to me to be sure. The review I wrote on my GoodReads profile I think sums it up nicely:

The final volume. The end has come, and a bittersweet one it is.

My fondness for this series goes beyond just the art and story itself (although I love both), but for the wonderful friendships I made due to it. Friends I still have to this day.

Even though it's been over for awhile over in Japan, I always had the English volumes to look forward to. No more.

Needless to say, I almost cried when picking it up at the bookstore. I doubt I'll ever find another series that has the same impact this one had.

Thank you, Takaya-sensei.

This weekend looks to be small. That's fine. I'm not someone who needs to be on the go all the time. I'm more of a homebody anyway. Mom and I are probably gonna mix up a few drinks and watch a movie and kick back. Sounds like a fun time to me.
