Loveless 6
Posted: December 17, 2007 Filed under: Loveless Leave a comment »Maybe it’s because it’s been so long between volumes, but I really enjoyed this volume of Loveless a lot more than I have the previous volumes. I understood a lot more of what was going on too, though I still have a lot of side characters and their roles confused.
A huge reveal is done right at the beginning of this volume though, and there’s no longer any mystery surrounding one of the biggest questions the series has had all along. The question of motive still remains, but we do get to see some character reactions throughout the volume, which was well worth waiting for.
Things between Ritsuka and his mother look like they’re about to come to an end too, as Ritsuka has to deal with being tied up and imprisoned in his own house and how to deal with telling his mother this… is not something she should do. There are also many things that pass between Ritsuka and Seimei, and this still makes me feel uncomfortable… but you gotta get behind something here.
It seems like things are going to quickly wind down, and I would guess that there may be two volumes left, but it looks like volume 8 is coming out in Japan and the series is still running, so maybe more will happen. I’m pleased with the coherency in this volume, though.
