 **NOT MY CUP OF TEA**

Read this review with a grain of salt because this is not my cup of tea. I read it twice but no love tingles were detected. I don't remember the story that much while editing the review. 

-Has an overarching narrative
-Nitpick: no table of contents inside :(
-My favorite characters as of this volume are the twins due to their backstory and as comedic duo in the story.
-Nice setup
-Characters' personalities & quirks were more pronounced due to improvement of facial expressions.
-Some of the central characters in this story are based on some actual celebrities here in the Philippines. They just jumbled their names.
-A twist on the Captain Barbell story
-Introduction to possible main villain in future stories. If she will be the main villain, I'm hella interested for future volumes.

Overall Thoughts: I think the reason I did not like it compare to the Darna story is because I was never interested in Captain Barbell.
