What can I say? This must be my favorite volume so far. The way it progresses the plot, lets us explore Ayanokouji’s skills, shows Ryuuen’s wild genius, and even enables character developments like Horikita’s—I loved all of it!
Firstly, Ayanakouji’s genius really shines through here. The way he was able to manipulate his grip strength to whichever value he liked is scary as hell. Plus, the way he predicted Ryuuen’s strategy and the traitor amidst Class C. Scary as hell. But at the same time, he’s still a big dork who just wants friends and blushes around girls. Point in case: when he drew “ten friends” and “someone you love” during the scavenger hunt, ya boi was panicking. He isn’t perfect, just a genius. And of course, who can forget the bomb that Sakayanagi dropped in the last chapter? The White Room, huh? Interesting, interesting.
Second, all I can say about Ryuuen is he is batshit crazy but so far, his schemes are getting the results he wants. All that scheming and manipulation really got on my skin, much like it did Horikita, which is a good thing because it means Ryuuen’s character is an effective “antagonist”. Props to the Syougo Kinugasa for that.
Lastly, Hirokita’s character development, yes !! In the beginning, I was so annoyed at how stuck up she still was even after how many novels. I see now that it was for the better. She finally realized her limitations and decided to rely on others, too. It was refreshing to see her brought down from her high horse, albeit it was hard to witness, too, seeing it was at the hands of Ryuuen. Ayanokouji scolding her was also a highlight, TBH. Her showing vulnerability to Sudou was also unexpected but refreshing. It’s admirable of her to finally open up, to Sudou no less.
Loved all of it so far! I am very intrigued with the White Room, too. On to the next!
