Snow White with the Red Hair, Vol. 3 by Sorata Akiduki
3.0
3.5 Stars
Izana tries stirring up some real trouble for Zen, but luckily he has things handled. And, despite his attempts, Shirayuki isn't easily rattled or swayed, either.
Izana is a bit of a jerk, but honestly I feel like he's being put on as a lot tougher than he is. We get a glimpse of his and Zen's past, and it makes Izana look even worse. But also, he's not much against Shirayuki, really.
In the second half of the volume, things get a bit more easy-going. Shirayuki has caught some public attention, and so she gets a bodyguard. It feels like a triangle is being attempted here, but I'm not really into that, and it's also not very strong at this point.
We get to meet a new girl, there to fight for her land and birds against a new viscount taking over her land. She hates nobles, but hits it off with Shirayuki. Their meeting is a bit one-dimensional, which I think this series has suffered from a few times.
This volume was okay. I've warmed up a little to Shirayuki and Zen, but still some of this series just hits meh for me. I really want to like this series a lot more than I do.
