this was a quick volume. I'm not really a fan of how abrupt everything is in this series. the relationships just seem to begin or end suddenly without much thought put into it, as if it simply happens to move the plot forward. Nana (the blonde) is still annoying me. I thought I'd get used to her but she gets worse by the volume. I don't see myself falling in love with the manga but it isn't terrible. I can see myself consistently reading it until I catch up to the pre-hiatus chapters, which is more than I can say for a lot of manga.

Re-read 2022: Couldn't finish it before I left, so here we are reading it during my vacation. XD This was a good volume, emotional, but also fun because we see some other characters. Shoji can still drown in a tar pool. And I am still not sure how I feel about Nana's other friends, Junko and such.
I loved Ren x Nana together, so sweet. So cute!
