Probably my favorite Skip Beat arc is the Prisoner Music Video arc with Kyoko reuniting with Sho for the first time in the business. I love how much she gets under his skin and the whole story in general.

I just am thinking. I do not like this manga series anymore. It just isn't appealing to me anymore. So with that said, I am officially stopping to read these manga volumes. It is nothing against the author or anything, I am just not invested in this series as I was before.

Thank you.

Another favorite volume!! All the happy feels of the last volume come to a halt right away with what Ren does when awarding Kyoko her points. What a turkey! Kyoko must face Sho when she is hired to be a part of his latest promo video. Her co-star and classmate is a brat that I highly dislike. Ugh! But when I see Kyoko in her angel costume-what a transformation. She looks quite different. It was interesting watching Kyoko trying to hide her identity and Sho trying to figure her out. While is is insanely childish and annoying he isn't stupid. I love how she really starts to shine and SHo starts to get an idea of what she could be.

Finally an issue which really gripped me, Kyoko is forced to show some real development and depth, despite her desire for revenge and her anger. Her talent really shows up.

It takes me some effort to get into the volumes of this manga, mostly because of the writing style (with the tiny little notes all over the place that slow me down). And the pacing is a bit slow: it'll take a few pages to make one concise statement, but that's important to the ambiance. What's awesome about this series is the messages. I especially appreciated the way we learned about how she dedicated her childhood to pleasing others and how important it is to become self-serving (in terms of quality of life and self-care). It's interesting to watch her become more self-involved.
