Reino being so viscerally terrified of Ren is the best end to this arc I could imagine. I mean who would be scared of Sho? Me... I would be... But not Reino!! That is the point, so Ren is perfect. Annnnd we start the Koo arc!! Yeeeees. 

hmmmmmmmm what the hell is up with ren’s past?

Reread this series for the second time in March, though taking the time to document this now. Funny it's on the first of April. And i am not joking. In a matter of 2 weeks i caught up with everything that is currently available.

2022 Skip Beat Re-read:

I HATE the Vie Ghoul plot lines they're so unnecessary and unsavory. This volume is only saved by the beginning of the Koo arch!

I had some real issues with some previous volumes lately but this one felt a lot more even keeled. Great chemistry and some development with both Ren & Kyoko, let's hope it keeps on in the next few volumes!
