Moko and Kyoko are really starting to have their friendship blossom, and it's just so beautiful and sweet to see! I especially loved the scene where Moko defends Kyoko from that rich brat, even though she refuses to stand up for herself usually. It really shows that she cares a lot about her, even if she won't easily admit it to Kyoko herself haha.
It's also just really fun to have an unapologetic antagonistic character, who is constantly stirring up trouble for people we actually like. While the idol girl from the previous storyline was sort of like that, she wasn't quite as awful to me as Erika was, and I think that has a lot to do with that fact that Erika continuously targets Moko, and tries to take everything away from her, while the idol girl (I am so sorry, I completely forgot her name lol) was just a bit selfish and self centered.
I'm also SO happy that Kyoko has finally gotten a part that she'll be recognized for, her and Moko will do so well, I just know it.
Volume 6, here I come!

I realized this manga is still ongoing. I thought I was revisiting and finishing a manga I started in high school, not restarting a still unfinished story. Maybe I'll come back in another couple years 😅

Kyoko and Moko establish a strong working relationship that is leading into a friendship in this volume. They both end up auditioning for the same commercial. It turns out that the commercial calls for two actresses and Kyoko and Moko are paired for the audition.
They fight a common enemy. Erika is a filthy rich girl who buys her way into acting jobs. Moko beat her for a part in the school play in 3rd grade and Erika has sought revenge ever since. It's ironic that Kyoko is celebrated in a way for her eternal grudge against Sho, while the reader immediately demonizes Erika for seeking vengeance at Kyoko. The key difference is that Kyoko is an essentially kind person and a hard worker while Erika is a snob. Plus, trying to get revenge at a guy just doesn't have the same level of cruelty as girl on girl meanness.
Kyoko grows as an actress in this volume. Not only is she able to play off Moko's lead (who has a lot of acting ability), but she shows the ability to lead others as well. Kyoko can get into the head of a character and make the emotions feel real. She even surprises herself I think. I like seeing Kyoko's talent. It shows that she has the potential to be Ren's equal as far as acting goes.
Ren plays only a small role in this volume and Sho plays none at all. Ren only appears in the first Act (this manga breaks each chapter into acts). Kyoko and Ren's relationship is still uneasy. It's made even more awkward by the fact that Ren showed a kinder side of himself in volume 4. Kyoko is started to be attracted to Ren without even knowing it.
From my review this volume doesn't sound that impressive, but I really liked it. Kyoko clearly grew as a character and I like that Moko is playing a bigger part. Erika was hilarious in her stuck up rich girl role. A clear caricature, but fun nonetheless.

So I think this volume was really important to the story and plot, and to the characters. We get to see Kyoko’s and Moko’s relationship get stronger and friendlier, which is definitely important to Kyoko’s slow change of personality. Kyoko gets to see Ren’s softer side, and this time not from the inside of a hen’s costume, and that is due to Ren’s discovery from the previous volume.
So overall this volume was important to the continuation of the manga, it wasn’t the best volume in the series but it was still quite amusing as always with this series!
