My Review:
The interesting humor and banter continues between Teru and Kurosaki which keeps your interest and want this couple to really get together.
Kurosaki continues to tease and boss Teru around but never in a mean way like some characters do! Kurosaki continues to watch over Teru to make sure she is safe and keeps her close for personal reasons!
Teru has become a stronger person and she grows more in this manga but still down to earth and optimistic. She dishes out whatever Kurosaki throws at her.
Teru and Kurosaki are growing closer. Teru now knows that he is her beloved Daisy. She realizes that Kurosaki must have a strong reason not to tell her he is Daisy - which makes Teru fearful that if she confesses she knows his identity, he would disappear. But it is difficult now to continue to write to Daisy and pretend she doesn't know who he is. In an interesting twist and turn, Teru did tell "Daisy" that she likes Kurosaki. So in a way, Kurosaki knows she has feelings for him but can't do anything since she told "Daisy".
Old rivals are and they aren't forgotten in the storyline. The Class President and her ill fated relationship with the computer teacher and Teru's other friends have more parts to play in the storylines in this book (they are also even told about Kurosaki's secret!). As well, Kurosaki's group including Rio and the chief continue to develop their history and storylines. There's still a lot of mystery around Kurosaki's group.
I really enjoyed the scenes where Teru had to remind herself she had to act normal around Kurosaki (but she was acted all weird and stuff - not herself). I was waiting for Kurosaki to call her on it, LOL!
This series continues to make me laugh and wish that Teru and Kurosaki would finally admit they love each other!
4/5
Thanks Maylene from Simon and Schuster Canada for sending me this manga to review, greatly appreciated!
