Reviews

[Ray Rappisi]

Break out the tissues, because this volume brings on the tears. Another great volume as we get closer to the end.

[Laurene Allibert]

Aoi starts to show her feelings for Kaoru to everyone which is nice

[Ella]

I couldn't bring myself to hate Tina knowing that she's been through a lot and is struggling with the fact that she has to tell herself and her friends that she's going back on. Knowing that she had a simple crush on Kaoru. I was pretty relieved when Tina figured out that Aoi and Kaoru make a perfect match, but I was disappointed on how Tina kept building up walls to hide her true feelings. Just like how Aoi did when Mayu, Chika, and the other girls tried to flirt with Kaoru when they're unaware of the relationship between Aoi and him.

[Peter]

This was definitely one of the better volumes. I felt it stayed on the primary plotline without too many annoying and irrelevant diversions, and served to further the plot, unlike some others that if you didn't know you were skipping them the plot wouldn't suffer at all. But let's face it, if you're looking at reviews of volume 14, you've pretty much decided by now whether to finish the series.

[Miss Ryoko]

Oh Tina! Poor Kaoru....it must be hard to have so many women in love with you when you're a nice guy and don't want to break anyone's heart!

It also must be hard for Aoi to have to watch it all happen! Oh dear!

On to the next!
