Then Ken searches for Rin and Bat and after Ken loses his memories, they have to help him. This really feels like the conflict doesn't start or actually matter until the main character gets there to fix it.

Haruki has confessed his feelings to Saku but she thinks Hazuki would be a better match for him because she's certain he still has feelings for Hazuki and not herself.

(Image Source) I doubt I'll ever have anything I've made hit it that big so, I may be living vicariously through her right now. I'm fairly certain I can count my fans and have fingers left over but it is so awesome to see Viv made it big.

After Waka was kidnapped by Volov - who is demanding something from Alura - she attempts to escape only for Alura to awaken against Waka's will. Alura's design is amazing. A real eldritch nightmare and gave me a real feeling of wrong, and is so very disconcerting.

Man, with all the family drama mixed in with the action, this was a fast-paced and entertaining read. Hakuri has a tragic backstory and it was amazing to see him rise above his shitty family's criminal background and get in tune with his abilities.

This prompts his family to send his older brother, Shotaro. At first, it seems Shotaro is going to be a kind of punishment for our couple as well as a rival for Keiichiro, but this volume keeps the comedic tone, and he's more of a goofball.

Yayoi has begun her assault on Yin Jiao while Eiko and Keitaro fight the god's shikigami and recover the scattered graduates. Yup, The Courtesean is still my favorite. It would be so interesting to have her and The Soldier working in tandem, given the unique suffering between them.

I'd read an entire side series where Kanaeno is just being a badass. The absolute highlight of this volume.

Yeah, I'd expect Kyoya to be a dick about this. There are plenty of characters who can balance cool, aloof jerk with a soft spot but Kyoya comes off as overly cruel then has to walk it back so the story can keep the couple together.
