Diary of a Female Lead: Shujinkou Nikki Vol. 5

THE NEXT STEP After confessing her feelings to Sena, Aoi is elated to have them reciprocated. With the biggest hurdle—getting Itsuki on board with their relationship—now cleared, Aoi's feelings for Sena deepen each day. Yet she’s not ready to go public, leaving room for awkward moments and new doubts. As whispers swirl through the halls about Sena’s so‑called “girlfriend,” Aoi confronts the pressures of high school romance and the ache of keeping love private. Yuu Yoshinaga continues to blend warm character moments with sharp observations of adolescence, as the trio navigates friendship, loyalty, and the consequences of care too loudly spoken. This 168-page fifth volume of Diary of a Female Lead: Shujinkou Nikki delves into how trust forms, how rumor can test it, and how a quiet couple might find its footing in a crowded schoolyard.
