The big old shrine scuffle continues between Rom, Mitsue, and Miko and… whatever the heck that thing is. When the dust settles, the big danger might have passed, but… if they’re out of the fire, well, that frying pan still has lots of heat left and Miko’s apparitions might have a little more heft to them than they used to.
Yes, the long-running matter of the shrine and Miko’s guardians of dubious intent comes to a rather explosive climax. It gives you enough to understand what happened, both now and in the past, without letting you know what happened. There are panels of moments, which you can make a reasonable guess about, but the story is deliciously shy about giving it all away.
And while that would normally drive me nuts, the way this series has been about the supernatural has been one of its best strengths. You can tell somebody has an idea what the rules are, or they fake it like they do, but this is the unknown and it is, indeed, unknowable. Too many series pull the curtain back entirely, this one leaves enough to still cast a shadow.
That doesn’t preclude it from having appropriate weight and pathos, mind, especially with how it wraps up the ongoing story of Rom and Mitsue. It also gives Miko a hero moment, even though she is far from an active participant in this fight. She has ever been an unfortunate observer and that is what makes her such a tragic heroine in her own series.
The second story is definitely lighter, if such a thing can be said to exist for this series at this point, but it’s also very clever because it also upends the established rules of the series to good effect while reminding us that loligoths are essentially evil (I kid, I kid).
Miko has always been attractive to spirits, but now it seems she might be really, really attractive to a particular spirit. The twist here is that Miko sees what she always sees, but everybody else can see this new character, and they see a normal girl.
Even if the story feels much less intense, which isn’t strictly a bad thing, this whole thing is now extra creepy because of how Miko’s avoidance strategy has been tossed out the window. Everybody gets to see her acting super weird around the new girl. It’s terribly clever.
And the story pulls no punches about how flipping unsettling this new… thing… is. Her design, the eyeballs, the “hair”. Now, it’s entirely possible this is about to be a cautionary tale about othering, the narration is definitely playing up the danger angle a bit, but that’ll still be fun. Right now the nebulous nature of it is, again, a nice touch.
It’s great to see Hana and Yuria back in action too, although poor Yuria seems to get sidelined so much that she’s practically a third wheel at this stage. I did laugh at how she once again gets the exact wrong idea about how powerful Miko actually is.
Actually, there are a few wonderfully low-key jokes to help leaven the horror. The entire art class section is a genius exercise in awkward cringe comedy and I love Miko’s deadpan at the convenience store just before that part. She’s so wonderfully put-upon, and who can blame her?
Overall we get a very satisfying conclusion to one storyline and the rather strong start to the next. I wish the side cast was featured a bit more and I almost could have done with a short break before the next big arc, but that’s a small complaint.
4.5 stars - this is such a wildly inventive series that has come a long way to be more than just ecchi with wild drawings of gross stuff. This has been impressive and, indeed, continues to impress.

The resolution of last volume's cliffhanger isn't quite as good as the build-up was, but it's still quite satisfactory . . . and explosive.
The tone switches from drama to creepy humor in the second half of the book with a new storyline about a mysterious transfer student (the white-haired girl on the cover) catching Miko's eye with her distinctive look.

Nice ending to the previous arc, the art has always been amazing!
This new arc is rather intriguing, and I can't wait to see what happens next!

Petualangan di kuil gaib berhasil diselesaikan di volume ini setelah Rom berhasil mengalahkan si monster dan Miko masuk ke dalam kuil kemudian menemukan sebuah tengkorak dengan banyak kertas jimat yang terpasang. Kemungkinan besar, tengkorak tersebut adalah milik seorang perempuan yang dijadikan tumbal pada zaman dulu kala.
Setelah itu, Miko kembali ke kehidupan biasanya sebagai siswa SMA. Tak disangka, ada anak baru yang masuk ke kelas Miko. Anak baru tersebut bernama Ichijou Michiru. Michiru yang dilihat oleh siswa-siswa lainnya sebagai gadis cantik dan memiliki tubuh langsing (karena ia adalah seorang model), lain halnya oleh Miko. Miko melihat Michiru sebagai sosok yang menyeramkan karena wajahnya tertutupi oleh monster tentakel. Jadi, sejak Miko bertemu dengannya, ia sama sekali belum pernah melihat wajah Michiru yang normal. Selain itu, karena sikap Miko yang dirasa berbeda kepada Michiru, Michiru malah jadi terobsesi kepada Miko.

This volume is hilarious. I love how telegraphed the escalation was and yet it still was unique and engaging.

Found this one a bit weaker than the others.
It wraps up the last arc in a satisfying manner and Mieruko growth is nice. But the new girl, while a interesting introduction and can be fun, didn't really grab me. I don't know really how to feel about her, and this volume felt a bit shorter than others having a lot of extra drawings in the back of the volume to make up the page count.
A 3 out of 5.

For whom the bell tolls
The truth is revealed about the mountain god and its servants clearly as Miko finds herself running toward the shrine as instructed and finding the source of the god's power. However regardless of the reason when one power is removed quite often a vacuum pulls other potentially dangerous things to fill the void as something stirs in that old forest while the trio who have released the mountain god from her imprisonment.
Meanwhile a new transfer student has come to the school who may have something to do with recent events but there is something strange about her as Miko only sees a mash of tentacles where her face should be. Being a living person (or so I hope) Miko cannot fall back on her usual tactics of ignoring the supernatural but when she decides the new girl may be dangerous her attempts to keep her from being upset may have raised some unexpected feelings in the new student for her. Let's hope these feelings are not to die for.
In the mean time Rom still has the bell he took from the mountain god and he might not be up to any good but he has always been a strange person so we'll just have to see what shenanigans he is up to in the future.
After the volume be sure to see how the cats Nyansuke and Mocha have been up to in the quick bonus manga and check out the bonus illustrations as well. I have always been impressed by the amount of creepy details that goes into the spirits in this series but there is also a guide showing many of them for the anime at the end of the book so get ready to recall some of the classics. :)

This continues to be an excellent manga, I just wish the Volumes came out faster, or were longer.
Highlights:
Story 1 - We finish up the shrine arc, where Miko, Rom, and Mitsue are fighting against the spirit of the temple. Miko is able to save them all by making it into the shrine itself and accidentally breaking a skull on the altar. This frees them, kills the monster, saves Mitsue's Master (who had been acting as a Shrine Guardian, and frees a spirit of a girl.
Story 2 - There's a new student at school: Michiru Ichijou. One problem, Miko can't see her face, only a huge black tentacled monster over the top of her body. She has never seen a monster that everyone else sees differently. Additionally, she is a popular fashion model Chiruru, and apparently obsessed with finding out more about Miko.
We are heading in a new direction and I'm excited to see how Miko handles someone both monster and stalker.
Love the chaos of this title. Recommend.

The final showdown against the Bell monster (called a Super Thrice, according to the extras in the back) kicks into do-or-die as help comes from an unexpected place. One of the Thrice happens to be the spirit of Mitsue's mentor who went missing right after Rom's first visit to this shrine.
But just because one monster is defeated doesn't mean Miko can rest easy. Because just as she gets back to school, a new student appears... with a face that only Miko can truly see. And she can't ignore it because this... thing could put everyone else (including Hana) in danger. Though it's starting to look like Miko is the one who is the most trouble.

I liked the interesting concept/plot artifact in this of a new BEAUTIFUL classmate being one of Miko's monsters. Also the eye contact was really odd but also fascinatingly cool.
I read this on a beach which was also...an experience. Not a bad one, and actually this one after the one section I didn't feel self-concious of it at all which was nice.
My rating is only lower than the typical 4/5 for this one because it wasn't super special by any means to earn a 5 star, and it was solid but didn't wow me too much at any point like a 4 would.
Solid read though, important step, excited for the rest of the plot!!

Finally, we get the ACTUAL conclusion to the Cursed Shrine story arc, which, honestly, has been a little hard to follow. I wish this story arc had been a volume longer, to allow a little more room for explanation and getting to know who the hell all these characters are and how they connect. Still, we do get a satisfying ending here, when all is said and done.
But enough about that - this volume also starts a new storyline involving a new character in Miko’s school, and this one is fascinating and terrifying! Is she human? Is she supernatural? What’s her deal? Does she even know herself? Once this story got going, I couldn’t put the book down! Can’t wait to see where this goes next!

The last bits of the Shrine arc and BOY things got scarier but also sad! I am so happy with how this arc has ended, though I am worried about what came at the end, oh no! And we have a new arc, because there is a transfer student who looks normal to everyone, except for Miko. She sees a tentacle monster. Chiruru? Cthulhu? I am very curious about how this one is going to go, the girl is terrifying, even in her normal mode, which ever is the normal mode though, haha. But she is a stalker, a yandere, and I am terriiiiffieeedddd. NOPE. The way she exorcised that monster, WELP. Fuck him. XD

With the story progressing, we get something very interesting with both Miko wondering if she did the right thing with the shrine, but also a new character who has an interesting “quirk” about her. What starts as a jump scare for Miko, continues with a total mindfuck for her and us as we see just how bizarre this new girl is. Her motives are unclear right now, but I’m totally ready and excited to see what happens and see how this, especially with how it is will affect Miko / Yuria / Mitsue / Rom / Hana going forward.

I need the 8th volume after this one 👀
I wasn’t feeling it in the first half because all that goes down… went over my head, I have no idea what was going on. All I know was that Miko was just trying to protect Hana… I didn’t understand any of that other stuff.
But after all that this started to get intriguing and amusing because there’s a new girl in town. This became funny again, as usual, and I need to know who this new girl is. I’m liking the relationship between her and Miko even though Miko would say otherwise. LOL!

The seventh volume of Mieruko-Chan wraps up the story with the shrine and brings us into a new story arc and a new, interesting character with Michiru. Miko doesn’t know how to feel about her because she looks like she’s completely taken over by a spirit. This is going to set up a really awkward relationship.
I’m looking forward to seeing how Michiru plays out and whether or not she becomes a permanent character when all things are said and done!

La introducción del nuevo personaje creo que ayudará bastante a engrosar la dinámica curiosa que ya existe entre Hanna, Yulia y Miko. Me gustó que Yulia apareciera más en este tomo porque es un personaje que merece más desarrollo y presencia en la historia. Es un buen punto medio entre Hanna y Miko, así como, por lo visto, tenga un peso importante en lo que viene. Ojalá siga presente.

amazing volume
Somehow, this series just keeps getting better and better.
We now have a first: a monster with a human body that can interact with Miko in the real world.
The creepiness factor goes to 11 in this one.

Enter a new creepy factor!
I truly do not envy Miko's life! She's got to have a bladder of steel as well as nerves, lol. Poor girl, when things seemed like they were just starting to get better... Now there's a whole new element in her life that is so creepy and possibly yandere.

Es la resolución de lo del templo, estuvo bueno.
De ahí es el inicio de lo que supongo que será la siguiente trama, una chica nueva de intercambio llega a la escuela, pero pues para Miko eso parece que será un poco problemático
3.7 stars

Coś ciekawego zaczęło się dziać dopiero pod koniec
Cała seria jest dla mnie za mało horrorwa. Wiem, że to komedio-horror, ale no brakuje mi tu takiego uczucia niepokoju, bo duchy wyglądają strasznie, ale cała fabularna otoczka wokół nich nie jest straszna, a dla mnie wręcz nieciekawa :/

The storytelling was a little uneven in this volume. Definitely led to more questions than answers.
