Description:
Marriages ought to be based on trust and understanding, but lately Kazura’s engagement seems to be nothing but secrets and mysteries. First, Shintaro Aguri, a substitute teacher who is really a member of the Magahara family, challenges her to find a former classmate’s mysterious parting gift or else break up with Mizuki. Then Mizuki performs a soul return on a friend’s husband, leaving Mizuki in the hospital, exhausted and wracked by fits, and poor Kazura clueless as to why!
—–From Back of the book,Published by Tokyo Pop, Authour is Maki Fujita——
Art: Nothing to complain about here. Maki does a tremedous job of drawing! I didn’t find anything wrong with her drawing in this volume.
Plot Development: Their were many plot developments in this volume. Mainly in Kazura wanting to offically not leave Mizuki alone,deciding to not give up and have her destiny be changed. We also get to learn what Mizuki thinks and how he feels at the end of this volume. Even tho I do believe he’s in love with her he’s very in denial about it. I hope next volume we get to hear more of his thoughts,because it was nice for a change. Another plot event is Kazura was able to see a bit of the future threw Miya’s eyes,and be able to hear her voice, when only a few people can (cause she speaks telepathically). So that little turn of events shows that Kazura might be closer to the family or something then they all think. The last two things I noticed in plot events are ,a)Kazura&Mizuki are getting way closer. Kazura’s depending more on him when she’s scared,and wants to be more in his life. I sometimes feel threw this series that Mizuki is quite selfish in the fact that Kazura seems to be the only one working at the relationship. B) Mizuki finally did a soul return infront of Kazura,tho I wish this scene was more in detail,cause I kinda got confused,we finally see him doing it. Now Mizuki is very exhausted,and he’s finally going to show what he did out of town,meaning he’s going to show Kazura what happens after a soul return,but not till volume 8.
Overall Thought
I thought this was a good volume. I mean I quite enjoy this series, I mean I’m still reading it after seven volumes of it. This story reminds me of two things. A) Fruits basket. Maybe this series hasn’t gotten as dark as Fruits basket has,but it definatly reminding me of Fruits basket. Mainly with all the secrets and everything.Maybes that why I enjoy this series. I think anyone who likes fruits basket would definatly enjoy this series. B) Edward Cullen from Twilight. I mean has anyone not read Midnight Sun, off of Stephenie Meyers website. In Edwards view he feels like the biggeist moron, and Mizuki kinda feel that way. So Edward And Mizuki.Maybe we should get them to have coffee together,lol.
Tho I definatly enjoy this volume,I do wish their was a bit more. I mean, I wish we could have a more detail look at how Mizuki did the soul returner. I was quite confused at how he did it. I think the only problem this volume had was it had bits of confusion. I mean at the beginning I was quite confused. In the last volume, volume 6, Kazura was only talking to Aguri (the teacher) on the phone, and then in this volume she seems a bit closer. I also forgott who Miya was. Manga volumes only get published every few months,depending on translation and something after four months you fogett alot of things, so when you read the next volume you might be confused, I reread the ending of volume 6,and was a bit less confused. So yah confusion was the only probelm for me. Other then that,this volume was enjoyable,and I definatly can’t wait till volume 8. Hopefully this series will be a long lasting one like Fruits Basket.
Rating:A-


Next review will be of Tsubasa volume 2 *anime*, and The Queens Knight Volume 13
