Hana Wants This Flower to Bloom! - Vol. 3 Ch. 12 - Chapter 12

[justforthelulz]

The whole universe really had it out for FMC, huh? In any case, thanks to the scanlator!

He sure had it easy while our Hanakawa went through A LOT. I loved this and at the same time, hated it.

Anyway, THANK YOU SO MUCH One Garbage Gal for introducing this series to us. Looking forward to Kotou Buchou's update and your future projects!

Oooookay he confesses after MC's spirit is broken by life, like what the hell is that. WHAT THE HECK

I hope they at least get married

First of all... Damn, we didn't even get a kiss. Not even a kiss on the cheek! 😭 Okay, now that that's out of the way, phew. Thank heavens that the guy Hana was seeing wasn't a cheater or some such, though that breakup was just a wee bit too convenient. Though it does certainly feel somewhat rushed, the ending was satisfying in its own way with its own merits. Having Akikazu tell Hana honestly how he felt about her and them working through their relationship awkwardly and slowly is a storytelling beat that I like. Even if there wasn't a conclusive end where the two of them marry or consider marriage or what have you in a relationship milestone, I think that for the purpose of the story, seeing them just start out dating and see where this takes them, with both of them having a good feeling about their relationship is a fitting ending to the story.

I've always appreciated how the state of Hana's garden mirrors the status of her love life and I love that this parallel was kept strong all the way through to the very end. Her strawberries still in the process of ripening and not having ripened all the way through is reflective of the fact that this new love is just starting and there's still a lot of work ahead for the two of them if they want it to "bloom," both the plants and their relationship. I guess if you look at the story in this way, you could say that the story ended the way that it began. This all started with Hana's unsuccessful attempts to grow her garden, and although she hasn't yet succeeded, she's still trying, and now she has one more "garden" to nurture, that being her relationship with Akikazu. This time, however, she's not the only one nurturing her gardens (both figuratively and literally) and she has someone working with her to make sure that those gardens bloom beautifully. And it's already borne fruit! The lone ripe strawberry is a good omen and wonderful symbolism for the good things to come for the two of them! It's quite cute! I like these kinds of stories where we end with characters just trying their best, looking to the future, because very rarely in life do we have something that's absolutely conclusive. It's a nice change of pace... but I still would have liked to see them kiss... even a little peck on the cheek. 😔✊

I'm sure @Satansslut669 is, by this time, sick of me commenting on every release, but once again... Thank you for your hard work on this series! I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and it was a delight to watch our not-so-awkward lead and our very-awkward lead navigate their feelings and do a little dance around each other. The quality of your work has been consistent from beginning to end and I am excited to see how your future work evolves. Thank you so, so, so much for this release! 😊😊😊 I'll be reading your new project, and I'm excited to start that one, too! I'll see you in the comments of Island Manager! 😁

That's it?! I mean it would've been better if we get a kiss scene from them but anyways nice manga... Thank you for translating it

 

[joosiicaa]

hmmm i feel unsatified but thank you garbage gal for finishing another series! looking forward to anything else you decide to work on

 

[starlordabs]

Okay damn. This is one of the most accurate depictions of love I've seen in a manga. You don't get over someone that easily and you don't fall for someone that easily too. Life's complicated.

 

[pokeito]

... that’s quite an underwhelming ending...


BUT THANKS GARBAGE GAL FOR ANOTHER SHORT FLUFFY MANGA! I’m impressed at how you do this alone tbh 😂

 

[Msaid08]

I think this is the best ending we can get. Im curious what happened on that trip but It looks like it doesn't matter to MC so It doesn't matter.


Thanks for the series 🖤

 

[DexDexDexina]

That was pretty nice.
Thanks for the translation!

 

[Fluffypiffy]

Dammit the guy dumped her because of the iron will of PLOT ARMOR

Very realistic though, the ending was a bit anticlimactic but that's life hey?

 

[Moodyz]

Was alright, I guess.

 

[JCrueco]

ML easy mode unfair af

 

[izanamii]

Kind disappointed with how this went but thanks for your hard work translating onegarbagegal!

 

[Dan1249]

I wonder what's going to happen if he goes to Germany... they just skip over that lol

 

[big67]

Hana san definitely went through a lot...
Author san was though on her.
Translator san did an amazing job 🙂 thanks OneGarbageGal !

 

[Slinkype]

What a dull ending lol. No kiss or anything. I honestly stopped liking ML a few chapters ago. Urgh. Thank you for translating though, it was done really well.

 

[Fluffypiffy]

Do y'all remember when he let her stay over and then made her breakfast approximately 1000000 chapters back

Why couldn't it continues on that note...ahhh irl sucks lmao

 

[Ath_mry]

Just that? Where's the kiss?
God, they're so pure
