Ren and Kyoko are busy becoming Cain and Setsu (on an unrelated note, I wonder if "Setsu" is pronounced Set-soo or Sets, since the "u" is often silent in anglicized Japanese words). Kyoko gets hit on by a bunch of scruffy looking hoodlooms who want to take her home and have a good time. Kyoko as Setsu says she doesn't have a problem with that, but they'd have to get past her big brother first.

I fell in love with this manga immediately.
It drew me in and kept me there. Sadly to say i have been reading it from the internet and hate to wait in between chapters.
I've also been watching it's anime and I've seen the first episode of the TV show extravagant challenge based on this manga.
But nothing beats the manga because it has all the extra details that are not shown elsewhere.

Uhhhhh....I don't get it? (<--she phrases this as a question). I really...don't. In regards to Ren's watch, I mean to say. I mean...it's a watch? (<--still phrasing this as a question, mind you). What is the significance of this? He essentially behaved as if the world were ending when he forgot the watch in the bathroom. Because he was reluctant to return the favor that Kyoko-chan had bestowed upon him (by which I mean walking in on her shower, heh-heh)? Do...more

I'll admit it, this whole Ren is Cain and Kyoko is Setsu thing is confusing me. I mean, is the point to get them to spend more time together? But what good is it doing when Kyoko is trying to figure out what acting lesson she is supposed to be learning, and Ren is becoming convinced that Kyoko is indifferent to him? Add to that the strangeness behind Ren losing it, beating up those guys, and I am definitely lost.

This is the most freaking amazing and hilarious manga I've ever read!!
Ren is yummilicious and Kyoko is so adorable (yet I want to shake her hard sometimes for not seeing Ren's feelings toward her). I can't wait to see them together, it sure will be one explosive love story... *dreamy sigh*

この巻では連と京子のハードメタルロック的なコスプレ（笑）がたっぷり楽しめる！連が演じるBJのだめ兄ぶりが笑えた。シャワーシーンでの連の「一緒に入るか？」には京子ならずともドキッとすると思うが、それに対する旅館じこみの京子の対応がお見事・・・でその後床に転げまわって、じっくり見ておけば・・と思ってしまう彼女がかわいい。
たまねぎをむくように徐々に明らかになる連の過去、雑誌もたまに読んでいるけど、早く単行本にまとまってくれるとうれしいな。
ところで、社長さんがしゃれじゃなく連よりハードロックな尊大な格好が似合ってかっこよくて、しびれたWW

You know what's the excellent thing about Skip Beat? Nakamura knows exactly how much romance to dole out to keep things engaging. Skip Beat has romantic comedy elements but it's primarily a story about Kyoko and her growth. Because the manga never forgets that when I read a very Ren/Kyoko-centric volume like this one I'm delighted because it doesn't disappear her character at all. It's just an opportunity to laugh at Ren too! (Ren's sulking over Kyoko being seemingly unaffected at seeing him in...more
Finally, she's starting to awaken! Things are about to get really interesting in the next one, can't wait.
What is not to like? Girl falls for guy, guy takes advantage of her feelings, he leaves for the big city, she tags along, but as soon as he starts to become famous, he throws her out. She vows revenge on him by beating him at his own game. It's like American Idol, only Japanese and not a game show, but I do have to wonder what it is about J-Pop? There are quick a few series about girls wanting to break into show biz by becoming an idol. I think I'm getting off track, though. Anyway, Kyoko has a...more

I love these characters (Kyouko's reaction to [spoiler] = HILARITY), but sometimes the meandering plots and huge supporting cast gets confusing. Like, all the drama with Ren's watch made me pause and go "Are we supposed to know about the significance of this watch? Or is this dramatic foreshadowing?" (Is it foreshadowing if it's about the past? Whatever.) But then Kyouko didn't know anything about it, so I guess this is the first we've seen that it's important at all.

As Kyoko works to get into character as Cain Heel's younger sister, Ren struggles with getting too much into his. While it's really an episode more focused on the Ren-Kyoko relationship, which I'm sure has the various shippers (a term I wish I didn't know) all atwitter, I more enjoy Kyoko's struggles with her own career. Still, a continually enjoyable ongoing guilty pleasure.

From the very first book I knew that Ren and Kyoko were for each other. the intensity of their emotions, even when Kyoko doesn't understand her own feeling for Ren, it's what makes this manga so innocent. I love the drawings, especially when Kyoko is being silly. I'm waiting for #28!
I love the tension between kyoko and rean. Their new roles are taking them a great effort. I wonder what happened in ren's past. He nearly lost it in the fight. Kyoko was the only one who could stop it. Now I know why the director sid it was going to be dangerous.
In this current arc, the focus in on Ren. He's accepted a role that may bring back memories of his past, which we see a little bit of in this volume. He's kept his history under lock and key, but it's about time that we learn a little more about him.
Hele şükür ...
Ren ve Kyoto bir rol için birlikte kalacaklardır. Kız kardeş ve ağabeyi canlandıran ikili kardeşten çok sevgiliye benzeyince işler karışır.
Hele şükür işler heyecanlanmaya başladı.

Awesome as always, and so cute as Cain and Setsu! I wonder if Ren will start having competition from Kijima? That would certainly be interesting! I hope Ren doesn't get hurt, though! I don't like that foreshadowing!
chibi Ren. shower-scene Ren. even pov Ren, which i think is a new development, at least to this exent. this volume is All Ren All The Time.
amazing book... i absolutely adore this series, and its heating up. it is getting even better and i cant wait for more!
I'm probably too old for this, but I still love it.
That weird little stint as brother and sister has ended and Ren and Kyouko have gone back to their day jobs (thankfully, even if it's only temporary). Dark Moon and Box R end up filming down the street from each other and Ren gets his first glimpse of Kyouko as Natsu (and he likely ^. ~). Then there's an Incident(!), things are revealed, and stuff gets heavy. Luckily, Ren has a special talent: eating fear. Both literally and figuratively.

My favorite manga
Loved the entire series!
this is getting better and better and better!!! I wish Y.Nakamura continues to do this manga faster. Its sooo hard to wait for the next volume to come out. I'm loving Setsu and Cain Heel! They are so good together. It helps Kyoko know Tsuruga more. I LOOOOVVVEEEE it!!!!
