Yay, finally the relationship circles stop and the story advances! I do like this series a lot, but I was getting tired of the constant soap opera. There’s only so many times the main couple can break up and get back together before I start suspecting there isn’t much else to the story.
There is quite a bit of relationship-y drama at the beginning of the volume. The first half involves a rough patch between Yuniko and Ryu and a brief entanglement with Maki. Later, the volume focuses on Ryu’s trip to Hollywood and how Yuniko copes with that. Lots of comedy and the quirky, good romance, all things that this series does best.
I don’t actually have that much to say. I’m just happy that the ridiculous romantic hitches didn’t continue through the rest of the series. I’m sure there’ll be more later, but boy am I happy to see the characters going for a change of pace. I’m looking forward to seeing what happens in Hollywood.
