Black Bird, Volume 5 by Kanoko Sakurakouji

4.0

Volume 5 of Black Bird has our adorable couple heading to Kyo's hometown to meet the clans patriarch and to introduce Misao to her future family. But of course this can't be a happy event...turns out the patriarch of the clan doesn't plan on letting them leave until he is sure that Kyo and Misao have consummated their relationship. Talk about pressure, and creepy pressure at that.

Not to make things worse or anything, but of course Sojo is being held prisoner in the clan's village and there are still some there that are loyal to him. And they will do anything to restore him to what they think his rightful place is.

This manga is continuing to be pretty intense and dramatic, but is sprinkled quite liberally with sweet moments for our hero and heroine.

Now time for the next volume so I can learn what happens at the end of this cliffhanger!
