Basically perfect. I mean I guess I could talk about what happens in this volume and the emotional ride it took me on but pretty much everything I'd say would boil down to this story is perfect and Dengeki Daisy is officially one of my favourite shoujo manga ever.
Ugh, you still want to know what happens? Fine, fine. Basically this is the extended flashback volume where Kurosaki's backstory is revealed. It is full of tragedy but also amazing beautiful found family scenes with Soichiro and Riko an...more

I was nervous to read this volume. Dengeki Daisy is at a crucial point in the story where we finally get an answer we've been waiting for since the very first volume. What, exactly, did Kurosaki do to Teru's brother? By now, the reader should have been able to piece together the general gist of what happened, but in these chapters, we're given the final pieces. The emotional intricacies of the characters laid out in these chapters saves the day from the cop-out explanation that I was fearing.

So we finally learn why Kurosaki thinks he killed Teru's brother. The eighth volume of Dengeki Daisy is largely set in the past. Starting in Kurosaki's childhood going through Tasuku's (Teru's brother) death just as the series was beginning, the tale of Kurosaki's past is long and twisty.
Rest assured, Kurosaki is innocent. Not entirely - he did create a very powerful virus that did a lot of damage - but his fundamental nature was always good. His criminal tendencies predicated in a desire to ave...more

I really like this series. It’s one of my current favorites from Shojo Beat, and I’m not happy about the fact that we’re pretty much caught up with Japan and so will have to wait longer between volumes.
It doesn’t really even matter if something exciting happened or not, I’m still enjoying it and looking forward to the next one.

Bisa dibilang ini volume yang paling menarik dan membuat penasaran untuk membaca kelanjutannya. Cerita tentang masa lalu Kurosaki dan Souichirou, kakak Teru, ternyata menunjukkan banyaknya intrik dan pengkhianatan yang dilakukan kawan sendiri.
Yah, kali ini hampir tidak ada kelucuan yang nongol, tapi cerita memang lebih seru dibandingkan sebelum2nya

A manga series that gets more and more good with each volume.
In the eighth volume, has Kurosaki dealing with guilt in the past, and of what happened to Teru's brother.
And we learn where he got the name Daisy and what had happened to Teru's brother.
This was a sad volume but also good too. Looking forward to the next one.

In Volume 8, you finally find out the mystery behind why Kurosaki couldn't tell Teru he was Daisy... This book was more informative and no interaction between Teru and Kurosaki... It was a lot to take it, but I enjoyed it still...

Dengeki Daisy is a favorite of mine for not only for its beautiful artistic characters but also for the romance that just tantalized me through and through but also for the tight-knit relations that the characters have. Through a darkened past, they all stick close to each other because they are more of a family. That is what I find beautiful about this manga.

The darkest and best one... the friendships of the team... ><><>< can never be again.... gah.... so unfair... Sou was so freakin' awesome... ><><><
3.5ish. Very technical chapter. My eyes might have glazed over a couple of times...( :-[) But the humour and sweetness will return in the next chapter!
Awww... I really hate to say this because I love this series so much, but this volume was boring! I mean, I understand knowing past story lines is important, but maybe it would have been less boring for me if it had been something done sporadically through a couple of volumes instead of all in one. Oh well... life goes on. I'll wait for the 9th volume in high anticipation as it'll get back to the main story and will be awesome!

This volume was a lot of "telling" which was kind of annoying. At least we finally got to learn of Kurosaki's past.
This review is for the Italian Edition.
IT'S FINE I'M NOT CRYING I JUST HAVE SOMETHING IN MY EYE, GOD.
Well played. *slow clap* Well played indeed.

poor Kurosaki!!
I'm glad that Teru knows his past. I can't wait for their reunion.

Kurosaki's secret is out! In this volume, the gang's past unfolds.
It starts off slow, and then it just builds and builds until everything is revealed and everything hurts. I just, wow! This is just great writing! I'll probably end up re-reading this volume just to make sure I got everything. The amount of heart, humour, and political dealings is intense! This is not what I thought I was signing up for when I first started Dengeki Daisy, but this is turning out to be one of the most interesting stories I've read in a while. I must know what happens next!
I think this was actually one of my favorite volumes in a long time. We finally get the full story behind Kurosaki's guilt complex and what really happened with him and Soichiro, as well as the back story on the infamous "Jack Frost" computer virus Kurosaki created. As the computer hacker intrigue was one of the things that got me hooked on this series to begin with, it was really nice to get back to that as a change of pace from all the angst and drama--ha!
On découvre enfin toute l'histoire de Kurosaki. Tome passionnant !!!!
This book belonged to the best shoujo manga ever! Actually, there are lots of factors that bring out it's awesome-ness, (1)With its strong heroine, (2)conflicted hero, and (3)story -- OF COURSE that does both humor and emotion well, it is still most definitely a series worth reading.

There are very few books that can make me cry. This is one of them.
The story is riveting: simultaneously intense, action-packed, poignant, and bittersweet; yet even amidst the drama, Motomi-sensei sneaks in a bit of her distinctive comedy.

I really liked this volume a lot. We got a lot of backstory about how Daisy came into being and about the characters lives. Still keeping me very interested!
When I fist read this manga I was not all
A bit slow but this book explains everything.
LOVE IT A LOT
