So, the much awaited anime could be a go? I feel sad that this series is wrapping up, it really has been an awesome adventure. I have a feeling the series will end with vol. 20, but it seems to me there is still so much to wrap up.
This time Ashirogi deals with a lot of scandal involving Mashiro and Miho. They've barely interacted over the how many years they've been secretly dating and now Azu-kyan fans are horrified and quite angry to hear about it. It makes me wonder if all fans of voice-actresses are gross otaku. A glimpse of a frightening world! The plot also re-introduces an old enemy of Ashirogi, a failed artist they've known since middle school who seems to have become a hikikomori. He's also very rude to his mother, which is terrible.
One thing I've been wondering is what about some of the other artists, especially Iwase, who used to be such a rival to the pair, but seems to have all but disappeared. I also noted a lack of my favorite manga-ka Hiramaru...what could he and Aoki be up to these days...
Can't wait for the answers in vol. 20

This is by far one of my favourite volumes. Bakuman is coming to an end, the second last volume of the series, and boy, was it good. The plot is so well carried out and it is refreshing after the last few volumes, I haven't been this excited since what went down between Moritaka, Akito and Miura.
Overall, great plot and theme. 5/5

The only thing I have to say about this volume is that sometimes I really hate otaku and how the anime industry works. Some of their actions and beliefs are so creepy that they make me ashamed to call myself an anime fan.
