That review's about right, unfortunately. I was at least hoping it'd lost momentum near the end. In fact, it's actually making Ikigami look good at this point, and that thing is even more manipulative now than when it started. Still, maybe the point of the volume is that it's supposed to be going on a down-note right now.

While I have really enjoyed this manga, this volume made me wonder if I should just stop. I found this volume very boring, and yes, it looks like something good might be coming, but I have too much manga as it is. This might be one of the rare series that I just don't complete. I completely agree with this review; while it started off strong, and was really funny (love the anime; that was the right length), it's been getting kinda stale.

I'm ready to give it one more chance, especially since it's so short. But it needs a rebound.
