story wise this one was a bit rushed but it had Tetsuya so I DO NOT CARE. THAT MAN DESERVES HIS OWN MANGA WHAT DO YOU MEAN THATS IT????

genuinely this series is only getting better and better. last volume I was ready to hate on amamiya but this volume…. Yeah that’s hubby. I’m just very intrigued to understand his motives.

Also reading this during pride month where it seems no character is straight is just the best.

Did I just marathon all the chapters, yes I did. I NEED MORE

[Lauren · Rating 4 out of 5]

and all too soon I’m almost caught up to the recent chapters with nowhere else to turn… what am I supposed to do with myself after I run out of stuff to read huh?? wait???? *cries*

[3.75] When Amamiya suddenly claimed he killed Akio, I just stared at the page like… sir, what? It didn’t even sound like a real confession, more like there’s some twisted detail we’re not being told. The Akira alien theory is starting to feel real. The way weird beings keep gravitating toward him makes it seem like he’s got something inside him he doesn’t know about. At this point I’m just flipping pages in full confusion jdksjdkjsf NOT COMPLAINING THO.

Co tu się odjaniepawliło…

Chciałabym pochwalić tom za Reiji’ego w akcji… ale znowu całe show kradnie Akira.
Akira, który choć ma serducho po odpowiedniej stronie, nie jest pustym idealistą… Akira, który pomimo częstego uśmiechu i śmiesznych sytuacji, w które ta fajtłapa wciąż wpada przypomina też, że nosi w sobie wiele żalu i wyrzutów sumienia. Akira, który w zderzeniu z brutalną rzeczywistością nie powie, że ,,wszystko będzie dobrze”, ale będzie robił swoje… bo czasem słowa to za mało. I mogą kłamać.

Kiedy ofiara może stać się oprawcą?
Sho i Akira dostają misję obserwowania kosmity podejrzanego o morderstwo ziemianki i jej dziecka. Gunji jednak od początku ma wątpliwości co do winy Tetsuyi. Kosmita wydaje się zbyt łagodny, aby być w stanie wyrządzić komuś krzywdę. Do tego najwyraźniej naprawdę zależało mu na ofiarach…
Ta historia daje prawym sierpowym prosto w czuły punkt. Tu nie ma dobrego zakończenia – bo nikt nie zwróci żyć ukochanych osób. Co więc pozostaje? Żal? Zapomnienie?
Zemsta…?

Akira i Sho jest uroczym duetem numer jeden, ale Reiji i Natsuki uparcie ich gonią. Choć między tą drugą dwójką jest zupełnie inna chemia – pełna napięcia i żalu o pewne sprawy z przeszłości… a jednocześnie Natsuki nie potrafi znienawidzić Reiji’ego, nieważne jak bardzo by chciał. Choć stara się to tłumaczyć obowiązkami służbowymi, zdradzają go małe gesty i chwile słabości – gdy nawet jeśli sam chętnie spuściłby wpie**ol Amamiyi ustawiając się do tego pierwszy w kolejce, to gdy Reiji’emu naprawdę coś grozi jest tak samo pierwszy do dbania o niego.
W drugą stronę działa to podobnie – nieważne ile Amamiya nabija się z Natsukiego i ile go perfidnie wykorzystuje, to gdy chodzi o jego życie i bezpieczeństwo Reiji potrafi zamienić się w prawdziwego demona…

Dare I say best volume so far?

(the way that my writing reviews keeps changing…but this is what I’ll say)

First and foremost, if what Amamiya revealed about himself a.k.a what he was going to tell Akira, then I love being RIGHT… because I have been feeling certain vibes… although I feel like the situation is probably more layered and complicated.

I have said in every single review that I am not the biggest fan of the comedic humor a lot of the time and I feel like this volume was serious…which obviously I was way more into. The case that Akira and Sho had to do and the conversations they were having with the guy were really impactful. Like I don’t know what happened in this volume, but the lines were going hard and the interaction Akira had with Sho after was heartfelt. The story touches on trauma and grief and violence and being in Akiras head, if there’s one thing I’ve learned about him is he has a lot of empathy and he tries to help people and aliens. And this story also touches on deeper conversations about immigration and the way that aliens lives are changed and impacted culturally, socially environmentally, and there’s just a lot of mysteriousness around the AMO and I do find it…”interesting” that we follow a protagonist who is empathetic and helpful when I’m suspecting and it’s also being implied that the AMO…well…you know.

We’re also getting into a plot now, deeper characters are resurfacing and there are just interactions that are happening that are making me wonder why repetitions are happening and why there are certain things being said while others aren’t. Amamiya continues being suspicious and making me side eye him but also wanting to know more.

[Vanessa · Rating 4 out of 5]

La dichiarazione di Amamiya è molto forte, però non sono per nulla stupita. C'è da chiedersi solo quanto letteralmente sia da prendere le sue parole... per quanto lapidaria, quella frase potrebbe avere molteplici sfumature di significato.

Hyogo in azione è una gioia per gli occhi (e anche il bonus sotto la copertina). L'alieno con i canini che porta scompiglio durante la missione della A.M.O. è fuori come un balcone, ma non vedo l'ora di saperne di più sul suo conto e sul pianeta da cui proviene.

Finale citofonato. Come si muoverà Gunji stavolta?

[Sara · Rating 3 out of 5]

This volume seemed a little more chaotic than usual. The chapters are still giving sprinkles of mystery and adding more characters (I like that it’s doing it gradually so it’s not as confusing as adding them all at once). The character designs for the aliens are ok but the action scenes with them are a bit confusing. The artwork for still images is excellent as usual though. I am pretty sure the mangaka wanted this to be a BL but wanted the more mainstream audience viewership. While I had a few issues with some of this volume it was still very enjoyable.

[Bryn · Rating 3 out of 5]

This was a little confusing in places but I think that's because of the Libby app -- I really prefer reading in my Kindle app, where it's easier for me to flip back and forth during action sequences until I'm sure I understand what's going on! But I liked the increased information about Amamiya, and the complexity of the world.

[munawhh.jpg · Rating 4 out of 5]

anddd..amamiya DID have something do with akiras dad. UGHHHH i knew it. thats so ass.

but amamiya does do some badass shit in this vol. BUT THAT DOESNT EXCUSE HIM FROM BEING MEAN TO TENKUBASHI AND AKIRA.

[Sofie · Rating 4 out of 5]

4.5; this manga really does keep getting better now that i feel like it's gotten into a groove and really established its tone. still leaving room in the ratings for it to get even better though and see if it can make me cry
