Like a Butterfly, Vol. 9

Would you rather wait for love like a flower, or fly toward love like a butterfly?

Suiren Shibazeki is often compared to a beautiful flower—but one that grows on the tallest peak of a mountain, forever out of reach. When Suiren develops feelings for the quiet Taichi Kawasumi, however, she doesn’t want to be a distant flower. She’d rather leave her lofty perch and fly toward him like a butterfly.

Suiren and Kawasumi love each other, but they also hurt one another—to the point where they mutually decide to put some distance between them. As they work through their uncertainty, maybe the summer festival that got them together in the first place can provide a magical spark!

suu Morishita is a creator duo. The story is by Makiro, and the art is by Nachiyan. In 2010 they debuted with the one-shot “Anote Konote.” Their works include Like a Butterfly and Shortcake Cake.
