Kobato. Vol. 5 Kindle & comiXology

4.9 4.9 out of 5 stars 53 ratings

As the seeds of love begin to bloom in her heart, Kobato's attentions are diverted from giving solace to strangers and filling up her magic bottle in order to finally earn her mysterious wish! Now it seems all Kobato has eyes for is the dour Fujimoto-kun and putting a smile on his face. With this turn of events, Kobato is fighting to save Yomogi Kindergarten more than ever before, all at the expense of her magic bottle. But as time runs out for her quest, is Kobato unwittingly endangering her wish, her life, and the lives of Ioryogi and his erstwhile allies (read: cronies) by choosing to follow her heart?

Clamp, stylized as CLAMP, is an all-female Japanese manga artist group that formed in the mid 1980s. Many of the group's manga series are often adapted into anime after release. It consists of their leader Nanase Ohkawa, who provides much of the storyline and screenplay for all their works and adaptations of those works respectively, and three artists whose roles shift for each series: Mokona, Tsubaki Nekoi, and Satsuki Igarashi. Almost 100 million Clamp tankōbon copies have been sold worldwide as of October 2007.

Super fast shipping and exactly as described, thank you so much!

I have been reading "Kobato" since vol. 1, patiently waiting for CLAMP to get to the heart of the story. And here's where it pays off. We finally find out who Kobato is, and get more on her relationship with Ioryogi (it's more complex than you might have guessed). All I'll say is that the whole thing somehow makes CLAMP's concept of the soul even more convoluted.

I liked "Kobato" before, but mostly for the artwork. This time, however, I was really invested in the story and wanted to find out what happened next. Best volume yet!

Definitely a must read for any fans of CLAMP manga. It is one of the cutest titles that they have created, and although the storyline follows their typical tropes, the main character is hard to not love, whether it is for her good willed innocence, or her adorkable antics.

Siento un ligero cosquilleo en mi corazón. Se me olvida que con Kobato siempre me pasa esto. En este punto se percibe que la historia va a culminar pero sigue con su esencia adorable, en donde Kobato se da cuenta de lo que siente y cuál es su verdadero deseo. Los personajes siguen sorprendiendo e Iorogi-san es mi favorito. El dibujo es hermoso y, a mi parecer, es de los puntos más fuertes de este manga.

Un poco menos acaramelado pero más honesto. La edición de Yenpress es hermosa y el servicio de Amazon.com.mx de calidad. Encantada con la compra y con el manga.

5.0 out of 5 stars No! Kobato! It's dangerous!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 14, 2011
Kobato volume 5 contains chapters 33 to 36.
It is rated Teen due to language and violence. (although I can't see any in this volume, I'd say it is rated T due to emotional distress or something)
If you are new to Kobato, start from volume 1.
There are 6 volumes in total.

All CLAMP stories are hard to summarize. Kobato is a girl with a wish. To grant this wish she needs to heal people's hearts and fill up a bottle with candy that represents the healed hearts. Helping her is a little blue stuffed animal called Ioryogi who was apparently changed into that appearance and banished from heaven for starting a war. Kobato works at a kindergarten where, by the looks of it, she seems to have fallen in love with her colleague. The kindergarten is heavily in debt because of the previous owner so Kobato is trying her best to stop it from being closed down.

In volume 5, we find out why Ioryogi is helping Kobato and who or what Kobato really is!
This volume is more serious than the others. Kobato puts herself in danger once again to try to help the kindergarten and we see her break down for the first time! It's heartbreaking to see!
The art is fantastic. I can't praise it enough! The detail, the emotions, they are perfect!
Yen Press has done an amazing job on the translation once again and the paper is excellent quality.
The next volume is the last but I really don't want it to end!
