Much like my feelings about the previous volume, we find Akiko Higashimura more settled into the story, characters, and the world she has created. Watching relationships blossom, principles challenged, and businesses thriving, the dramatic pulls here are far more calm, collected, and measured, and may I say that reading through has been a pleasurable ride. The stakes are more significantly established without resorting to an aggressive gradient curve of its plotting for the sake of generating interest. It is here at the series' median that I feel I have been made to swim in the same emotional waters as these characters.

A fun comedy featuring nerdy women, this manga was exactly my taste. The artwork is beautiful. The story is funny and touching. The translation notes at the back of the book are very helpful in giving additional information.
