Getting more of Usui with each volume and I love it! He’s such a mystery, it’s unfair. It’s understandable when Misa gets frustrated— he knows everything about her lol. Misa getting flustered when she has to talk about her feelings is so real. I loved the bonus story of the Idiot Trio. Ikkun is so precious and their friendship is much more than we get to see. I always thought they were all still badass even though they dont act like they have sense half the time. I can’t wait to see where this goes, but I’m not ready for the series to end.

~4/5
(Contains light spoilers.)
So much happens in each book, since there's two volumes. I don't know what to focus on.
There's some light stuff, like Misaki and Usui helping out Sakura with her misunderstood rockstar boyfriend. Aoi gets to make the maids costumes for the first time, and that turns out very pretty. We get a couple moments of sexual tension around Yukimura, and how anyone could possibly not see the possibilities between him and Kanou is beyond me. This is one of the only not-actually gay couples that gets to me. I mean, come on.
Aside from that, there's an ongoing tension between Misaki and Usui. They're not labeling their relationship—Usui believes it could lead to bad things from his family that he's still hiding from her, but she's too embarrassed to tell him how she feels. It's nice to see her realizing how she reacts to him and accepting that she might want to react differently and be more honest with him. Then we meet Usui's brother, and his ninja stalker bodyguard, who's honestly fantastic.
There were also a couple extra chapters, one where we get the characters in an opposite-gender world that's quite fun; I like Usui as a girl. Then we see the idiot trio in a realistic chapter about their friendship, which is also nice.
I can't wait to start the next one. I love the depth we're getting to the characters.
