I thought my publisher censored page 6, so I went here to check. Glad it wasn't the case

they changed a lot of parts in the anime huh...

Yeah, they re-arranged the order of some events. This went at the end of the first season, but then they jumped back for the second season and had stuff involving the teacher romance and hot springs trip that introduced Tokiko properly in the second season (really love her, one of the best old women in anime/manga). It's mildly annoying, but it's not the worst, I guess? I dunno. I do like the order of events that the manga has, here, better, but I guess I understand them wanting the summer festival for the first season's finale, just in case they didn't get to do a second season. But then they did, and even got to do a four-part finale thingy after the second season, so that was cool.

Now I'm reading through this and it's been a real treat, to be honest, and seeing a more proper order to events, too.

Re: the moon... people, they've been doing that whole 'showing the moon after something that'd normally be flags' shit for most of the manga. It hasn't meant much of anything. Stop spazzing out. This is basically just a fluffy manga. I mean, that might change in a hundred chapters, but if it's still mostly the same adorable manga 80 chapters in, I seriously doubt it's going to be all that different in the next 80 or even beyond.

They keep revealing little tidbits at a time, they keep showing the Yuzaki couple becoming more and more comfortable showing affection with each other. There's progress. It's gradual, but it is still progress.

Just when people think drama is about to happen, it turns out to not be all that serious and turns out to be more amusing stuff. This is the way.
