Basically perfect. I mean I guess I could talk about what happens in this volume and the emotional ride it took me on but pretty much everything I'd say would boil down to this story is perfect and Dengeki Daisy is officially one of my favourite shoujo manga ever.

Ugh, you still want to know what happens? Fine, fine. Basically this is the extended flashback volume where Kurosaki's backstory is revealed. It is full of tragedy but also amazing beautiful found family scenes with Soichiro and Riko and Boss and all the older characters connected with Kurosaki we've known for awhile. Lots of movement on the hacking plot too if you're into that kind of thing. (I'm into that kind of thing). Also Motomi continues in her quest to make me ever more distressed that this manga started off with Soichiro dead. Crying about Soichiro: the Dengeki Daisy reading experience. ;_; But he was so perfect! I can't deal with these Terebayashi siblings, with their goofiness and intelligence and kindness. How can you write someone so entirely delightful who has such fantastic dynamics with pretty much every major cast member and be like he's dead, you will only ever get to see him flashbacks. How do you sleep at night Kyousuke Motomi!? 5 stars

This volume was a lot of "telling" which was kind of annoying. At least we finally got to learn of Kurosaki's past.

I think it's my favorite volume... Ok, no romance between Teru and Tasuku (and I missed it) but.....C'mon, we finally learned about Tasuku's past. And this was such an emotional volume [still crying over it]. I loved the moments with Shoichiro (why are you goooooone i would have loved u so much it hurts) and yeah. I just loved this volume even without the romance.

3.5ish. Very technical chapter. My eyes might have glazed over a couple of times...( :-[) But the humour and sweetness will return in the next chapter!

It starts off slow, and then it just builds and builds until everything is revealed and everything hurts. I just, wow! This is just great writing! I'll probably end up re-reading this volume just to make sure I got everything. The amount of heart, humour, and political dealings is intense! This is not what I thought I was signing up for when I first started Dengeki Daisy, but this is turning out to be one of the most interesting stories I've read in a while. I must know what happens next!

Dengeki Daisy is a favorite of mine for not only for its beautiful artistic characters but also for the romance that just tantalized me through and through but also for the tight-knit relations that the characters have. Through a darkened past, they all stick close to each other because they are more of a family. That is what I find beautiful about this manga.

Definitely something Shojo fans should look into. You'll fall for the characters in a heartbeat (especially Kurosaki) and the artwork grows on you. Dengeki Daisy is a heartthrob and that is no understatement.

In Volume 8, you finally find out the mystery behind why Kurosaki couldn't tell Teru he was Daisy... This book was more informative and no interaction between Teru and Kurosaki... It was a lot to take it, but I enjoyed it still...
