This volume was extremely well put together. The play was fascinating, especially the impact that it had on Soichiro. The ending was downright ominous! I can't wait to find out how Soichiro's personal demons are going to throw a monkey wrench into their lives. ( )

Most of this volume is the play which is an allegory for the story of the manga itself. Which is fun but after a little while I wanted to get back to what was really going on in the story. That said I really enjoyed the play. But I enjoying watching Tonami and Tsubaki come together with what they both need and want from a relationship. The things happening the background of the festival were fun and funny to read. Yukino and company do not get much character growth but with more sinister overtones around Soichiro; I am sure that is coming. What is a little drama in a high school manga? Totally needed that is what.

I give this volume a Four out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I bought this manga with my own money. ( )
