Posted: March 5, 2007 Filed under: W Juliet 1 Comment »There’s a really, REALLY cute story at the beginning of this volume that was a relief after having to sit through stories about other people’s relationships, some comedy relief, and that long training camp arc where Mako and Ito didn’t get much of a chance to hang out. This one was about Ito making Mako flan caramel for his birthday and not knowing it was the only sweet he couldn’t stand. It was adorable.
Unfortunately, it’s followed by a story about Tatsuyoshi and his girlfriend. Thankfully, it’s only one chapter long. Unfortunately, it’s followed by a chapter about Yuto and Akane, then another chapter about Sakura and the Narita father. Then a chapter about Yoshiro and Misaki. Bleagh. Again, I like all these characters (the chapter about Yoshiro and Misaki was especially cute), but MORE MAKO.
We also get a boring chapter at the end where Takashi tries to sabotage the drama club one last time. He gets one more go around in the end, but this is the last instance of drama club interference. These plots have gotten tiresome… Takashi was a great villian at the beginning, but these have repeated themselves so many times that he no longer poses a threat. Go make sure your sister doesn’t pass out, instead.
So we get a grand total of one Mako/Ito chapter. Urgh. One chapter, a handful of cute moments, and a cute note at the end where Ito says she’s growing out her hair for a gankake. Cute, but I want more because I like both those characters, and they are THE MAIN COUPLE thank you very much.
Thanks for the nice review
