Volume 14 - 1st printing.

Written by Wataru Watari. Art and cover by Ponkan 8. Translated by Jennifer Ward.

At long last, spring is here again. Although the routine is much the same, each day is always new. After all the hardships, struggles, and mistakes, all they can do is ask the same question as always and search for new answers. Hachiman has struggled to answer that question truthfully, and his relationships have suffered for it-but it's time for that to change.

This romantic comedy has gone wrong enough times. The story may be coming to an end, but youth lives on.
