Re-read 2021: Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, this was such a good volume! A date between Kasahara and Dojo (which was just so sweet, even though I was sad that they had to go back halfway in), lots of deredere actions (they are so cute), our second couple finally kissed and that made me squee in happiness because that was SO NEEDED. I love Shibazaki and how she doesn't give up and makes some diabolic smart plans. Heehee. There is also some excitement as an author has to hide (and I love seeing Dojo fanboy around him). And there is plenty more. I cannot wait to read the rest of the books that are left. I will be sad though, because this series is just too good! Guess I will just have to re-watch the anime again then. :P
Review for vol.10/11/12.
Wow, what an action-packed 3 volumes these were. And not only action, but also a lot of romance that finally happens (no, not just between Dojo and Kasahara) and I really enjoyed these 3 volumes. I was pretty sad to hear that this manga will soon be over and that we will have to do with just re-watching or re-reading and to continue hoping that the novel will get an official English release.
Kasahara was really wonderful in this volume. Lots of typical moments, but also some stunning, beautiful moments which made me love her even more. She has grown up so much if you look at volume 1 and then compare it to this one. I really love it when a character grows. I always hate it when a character stays the same throughout the whole thing.
I am also happy that she is finally realizing about her and Dojo, finally seeing in something that everyone saw since the start!
The date between them was soooooo adorable and I was so happy to see them both in civilian clothes, enjoying lunch and dessert + the most important thing of all: Chamomile tea.
The other characters are also great and all get their spotlights. Sadly we barely see Marie, I would really see more of her.
There is lot of story and plot twists. At first we have the battle about Barber, then a museum that has a very controversial piece of art and then we have the whole terrorist + ban books/authors thing. I really can't wait to see what will happen in the next few volumes, since I am sure things will get rolling and we will get some interesting conflicts happening soon.
All in all, 3 volumes that I really loved and I can't wait until some more volumes come out so I can buy 3 volumes in one go again.

Amazing
I like seeing the development of not only the characters but of their skills as well. They work hard to do what they believe to be right.

Volume 12 was one of the better ones. Think there are only two more left. It's been a fun little series.

~4.5/5
I’m just in love with this series. I don’t even know what else to say at this point. I love everything about it.
This volume has the group guarding a writer being pushed to censor his work, and then a problem with Tezuka’s brother, which Shibazaki takes care of very nicely. Shibazaki is brilliant, and so very smartly manipulative. I love how she takes care of things.
The main points in this volume, though, are the “date”s between Dojo and Iku, and the chemistry coming to a head between Shibazaki and Tezuka. Also all of the hilarity, but those are always there. Dojo and Iku seem to possibly be heading somewhere, maybe, but it could still easily be dragged out for several more volumes. Either way, I'm happy. Then Shibazaki, who I love, I think is a perfect fit for Tezuka, and I really enjoy seeing them get closer.
Just thinking about this series makes me smile, and I grin through every volume. I love every bit of this series, and this volume is another blissfully exciting one. I love it.
I can’t wait for the next volume.

Man, oh man. This is the volume we have all been waiting for! Iku and Dojo go for chamomile tea! I enjoyed the hell out of this volume especially with the interest twist and push for an expansion of the MBA due to an attack on a nuclear plant with a connection to an author. Loved the political twists and romantic twists near the end. Can’t wait for the next one!
