Very good volume. No stupid romance and lots of manga publishing stuff going on.

It's crazy to me how interesting this team can make a really mundane story. This entire volume is just about the Ashirogi team coming up with a new idea for a series after their first one gets cancelled, but it's a real page turner. More female characters show up in this volume as well. I like Miss Aoki a lot, but I am not a huge fan of the romantic comedy cliches that start showing up.

As usual the story and artwork work together like genius. I love the expressions, they are exaggerated, yet realistic and just great, and the body language is spot on.

I like how the story is developing, they have spring forward, then fall back, but they never lose their enthusiasm and are always thinking up new schemes to get what they want.

It's very funny as well.

...Honestly, this volume was complete shit. I don't think I stopped rolling my eyes once during the last chapter. The stuff with the editor was interesting, but the rest was too bad for me to give it a higher rating.
