Ôoku: The Inner Chambers, Vol. 9 by Fumi Yoshinaga

4.0

'pon my troth

can it be true? do mine eyes deceive me?

was there now a volume of ooku of light heart with no tragedy to be seen?

tis a miracle. a miracle i say!

though i did see ominous tidings towards this volume's end

shun them yoshinaga, i beg you. let hiraga gennai continue upon the world, a blessed grain of merriment and splendour. let tanuma remain that shining rarity, a politician working for the good of her people. let this golden age of few deaths and much character splendour amble on

at the very least let gennai have another kiss if she so desires because her reaction was cute as heck

4 stars
