Hee, the best Gabriel Dropout volume in a while! And I've been liking all the volumes a lot. But this time there was a lot of Gabi: majority of the book was about her sister Zeruel's visit to Earth to see how she's doing and Gabi trying to cover up her lazy ways. And the couple of chapters that weren't about the sis' visit, featured Kurona who I always wish more panel time for.

I feel this volume had even more awesome reaction faces than usual and cute Gabi smiles when she tried to assure her sister she's being angel-y. Very funny volume! And there were heartwarming moments too when Gabriel's schoolmates etc. were worried about her, and of course when Vigne came to her "rescue". Well, it's still gag manga, so it's not going very deep into things like this but it's nice to have sweet moments like that too.

Everybody looks of course cute af. :3 And Finnish translation is funny too.

I'm out. This series just isn't for me.

1st one I've ever quit. I just don't find it interesting. As a Christian, I am slightly offended by it's anti-Christian stance. At least that's what I thought at 1st. Then I realized the manga comes from a country where Christianity is not well known, and what is known & spread in their pop culture is mostly inaccurate. But I can't stand Gab. She is annoying. I much better like Vig & Satanya. If there was a series about those two, I'd likely read it.
