Kiss Him, Not Me Vol. 9 (Kodansha, 2017)

Once again, it's me, Kae! It's so great that the whole group is staying together, and even Shinomiya-kun is opening up more. These friend are more than I could ask for, but if I had to say what I want for my birthday…I'm sure there's plenty of exclusive anime merch worth wishing for. It looks like the whole gang is fired up to throw the otaku party of my dreams! But the birthday festivities lead to a heartfelt confession from Igarashi-kun, and it's too big to ignore! Things are also spurred on by the arrival of a gorgeous senpai from the boys' past……This cool beauty, Kotoha-senpai, has some blunt words for me about dealing with everyone's feelings. Everyone puts their heart into making me feel special, so I can't leave them hanging. But can I figure out how to deal with 3D love?!
