this just gets better and better . . .

in the midst of all the darkness and intensity (Kyutari is SO intense) the chapter breaks with "What's Up in Queen's Quality This Month" is unbelievably hysterical, and there is the occasional comment ("can we not talk about boobs") that reminds us that, yes, these are just teenagers. Of course, then there's Nishioka's toilet brush ("hitting with it is so satisfying!"). Seriously.

The villains that Motomi makes are never quite villains. They can be awful, but they have their reasons, and slowly we get to see the humanity in each of them. As we see, so early on in the series, when Fumi unknowingly runs into Ataru. There's some conflicts as things are becoming revealed.
Fumi makes a step forward in her journey to understanding herself and the Queens inside of her. So far we've only met the evil queen, who is strong but ruthless. This time Fumi gets to see them, and we get to meet the “good” queen, only she doesn't seem to know what is too far. Things are clearly not quite so black and white here, as they're learning. Thankfully, we're also seeing what a strong pull Kyutaro has on Fumi, as he gets to pull her back to earth each time.
I'm probably being more hopeful here, as I'm seeing Kyutaro's agreement with the adults crumbling. It just doesn't seem to make sense—ever, but particularly in this scenario. It won't help anything if he's keeping things from Fumi. And as Fumi starts remembering and figuring things out, that's become apparent to him, as well, I think. I hope, at least, because I hate those plot devices.
I can't wait to read more.
