Was that a motherfucking Food Wars reference?! Sorry, I couldn't resist!

Seriously, the fried rice battle was hilarious and really did feel like a riff off of Food Wars, which I'm ALWAYS down for. The chapter where Kashiwagi thinks her boyfriend's cheating on her was pretty funny, but seemed too safe, like it went exactly where you think it's going to go, which is kind of disappointing. However, Kaguya and Ino's reactions to Kashiwagi's claims was funny and definitely worth it.

That final chapter, though...I was not anticipating getting hit in the feels that hard, but HOLY SHIT, it practically ran me over with feels. I really do love this group of misfits and how they band together to help others. Despite all of their failings, they are genuinely good people who will do what they can to make other people happy. Damn it, I'm tearing up now, gonna go cry beautiful, joyous tears!

Somewhere along the way in this series, Kaguya and Shirogane have kind of accepted their feelings for each other. They're still worried about what the other will think if they confess this, but a lot of their trials now involve trying to make the other person think about them or react to them. They still want the other to confess first, but it's clearly because they're too afraid to do it themselves.
So far, Kaguya has figured out a trick to make herself not react to Shirogane. And poor Shirogane has to deal with Ai punishing Kaguya through him.
There's a few big chapters for Kaguya in this volume. She has to see Shirogane with other girls, she loses her precious photos when she gets a new phone, and we get to see how terrible of a girlfriend she could be regarding boundaries. We also get a fun cooking-competition parody episode in this one—as Chika thinks she's a smart food critic.
This is a really fun series. It's nice to see where the characters have gone so far and where they'll be pushed to next.


A review copy was provided by the publisher, VIZ Media, for an honest review. Thank you so, so much!
