Skip Beat!, Vol. 1 by Yoshiki Nakamura

4.0

Rereading Skip•Beat! from the beginning. I think I got as far as the Momiji audition in Volume 42 back when I was reading scans. Makes sense that of that was 7 years ago that I'm only behind by 7 volumes. But still! I'm gonna try my patience starting at 1. I'm already second guessing my decision.

But okay, the set up that Kyoko is devoted to her childhood friend Sho to runaway from home and follow him to the city for his dreams of being a celebrity. Abandonment trauma, locked up evil curse spirits, pet rock ... shes a disaster child.

Kyoko also doesn't have a deceitful bone in her body. Shes straightforward, naive, and passionate. Love to see the agency Director take an interest in her. Its the start of the start.
