I love how mixed everyone feels about this story. Personally, I really love the story and the couples, but it's interesting to see how other people don't and why. I love Yuna the most, so I was really happy when she got what she wanted and be with Rio.
Although I am a sucker for wholesome romance, I really want a story where Yuna moved on by the time Rio realized his feelings and Yuna didn't get swayed by his confession later on. Or Akira got back with her ex. Or the distance of being in America caused Akira and Kazu to break up. Sometimes a bit of realism is nice in these stories, because it shows the readers (especially the teens) that just because you break up it doesn't mean you won't ever be happy again. It also shows that you don't need to be with the same person to feel happy again, or you don't need to be in a relationship to be happy.
While I love this genre, sometimes I wish there was slightly more realism at least so it can teach these lessons to the youths or make these lessons they are bound to learn easier. In the end, I'm glad all the characters are together and happy. This will always be a five-star read for me ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~ <3
