It's worth noting that along with its hysterically funny "romance" descriptors, this volume of Peach Heaven also takes time to address outdated notions of teenage and female sexuality - that Momoko should be expelled or ashamed of her work as a published author simply because of her age and gender is handled impressively well, especially for a humorous romance series.
I was pretty disappointed by how anticlimactic it was when Shina and Ranmaru finally get together. The whole series is about erotica and we get like one page of almost nothing...! I liked how it had her comforting him as the lead in but it would have been nice to see more erotic kissing or stuff like we’ve seen in other volumes. There was no heat at all.
Also, while I did appreciate that Shina didn’t get punished for revealing her secret at school, it did feel a little hard to believe, and also a bit anticlimactic.

Hmmm I am entertained but I don't think this series is necessarily anything outstanding. I think the MMC is still so skivvy towards not just the MFC but other women.
Read 1-13, except for volume 9. 1-5 I read the scanlation, but starting 6 I got the hardcopies. 1-6 were hillarious, especially the excerpts of Aihara sensei's work. And the flirting between those two are quite delicious :-)
Too bad, starting volume 7 it becomes just like thousands other shojou manga. Volume 13 is separate story.
Wow. Last issue I got the first part of their relationship progression that I wanted, and now I get the next thing in this volume.
I'm actually enjoying this a lot, it's not drawn out and there are usually something interesting happening in every chapter.
There are only 26 chapters posted on the site I'm using, so I don't know when I'll be able to get the next volume posted, but oh well. I'll update when I can.
