This next manga in this series mostly focuses on Aya. Aya has always been a follower and a people pleaser. She is expected to get into a great college after high school and to be a good role model. Her feelings are hurt when Rei tells her that she needs to stop being a follower. Believing that Rei is only with Aya out of pity she takes time to herself and begins focusing more on her studies. She also meets Katase who's just like her. Katase and Aya study together, but nothing more happens. This quickly ends when Katase tries telling Aya how to dress and who to hang out with. Realizing what Rei said was true she decides to try and make it work with him again. I was so relieved when Aya bailed out of that situation as fast as she did because if she stayed it would've only gotten worse. Even though Rei is selfish he truly does care about Aya. He just never likes to show his feelings. Ran and Tatsuki also face their own dilemma. Tatsuki believes Ran and Rei like each other, but Ran is quick to reassure Tatsuki. Rei on the other hand might have feelings for Ran. I love this series, but I hate that every guy except for Yamato (for obvious reasons) ends up liking Ran. She has a great personality and is very pretty, but she's also sometimes annoying and doesn't take anything seriously. Not every guy is going to like those qualities about someone. So that part of the series is very unrealistic. But regardless this series is so funny and entertaining I love rereading it!

Honda Mami pacaran sama Asou Yuuya! Asou Yuuya yang patah hati karena Ran pacaran dengan Tatsuki akhirnya menemukan pengganti. Meski dia kerepotan karena Mami sangat control-freak, setidaknya dia merasa lebih dicintai dan diinginkan.
Sementara itu Aya merasa tersakiti karena Otohata Rei bilang dia cewek yang cuma ikut arus dan nggak punya keinginan sendiri. Di saat yang sama, teman sekelasnya yang sangat pintar, Katase-kun mendekatinya. Cowok itu bahkan membantu Aya memperbaiki nilai-nilainya agar dia tak lagi dimarahi orangtuanya. Ia pun terombang-ambing antara Katase dan Rei. Seperti biasa Rei nggak berusaha memperhalus cara ngomongnya pada Aya. Namun, Katase-kun ternyata nggak sebaik itu? Ia mengkritik kebiasaan baru Aya memakai aksesori. Lebih buruk lagi, dia menyuruh Aya menjauhi Ran dan Miyuki. Aya marah dan meninggalkan Katase.
Nah, lalu suatu hari Naka-sensei minta tolong Ran untuk menemaninya patroli malam di sekolah karena ia takut dengan rumor hantu di sekolah. Akhir-akhir ini sering ada sosok bayangan hitam yang suka melintas di sekolah. Ran pun memenuhi permintaan itu karena sang wali kelas berjanji akan membelikannya minum. Bwahahaha. Murah sekali hargamu, Ran! Namun, Ran ternyata bermaksud memotret hantu itu dan menjual fotonya ke majalah untuk dapat uang.
Betapa kagetnya Ran dan Naka-sen saat tahu bahwa hantu itu ternyata manusia. Apalagi setelah tahu siapa sosok di balik bayangan hitam itu.
Setelah itu cerita dilanjutkan dengan Tatsukichi yang insecure dengan hubungannya dengan Ran. Habis Ran sama sekali nggak romantis, sih. Dia pun berniat pulang ke Machida dan meninggalkan Shibuya untuk seterusnya.

As always, I love returning to this series. It remains a very balanced blend of lighthearted fun and emotional drama, and I can never be bored with these characters and the shenanigans they get up to.
A lot of this volume is focused on Aya and her insecurities in her relationship with Otohata and just in general. While I love and appreciate character development for her, the counterbalance to that is additional glimpses of what's going on with Otohata. I think this volume is the first time we ever have it confirmed even vaguely that Otohata (like Yuya aka Number Two, and Tatsukichi,) has feelings for Ran. It's frustrating, because I never feel like I can enjoy him as a character, no matter how much of a catalyst he ends up being for other elements in the story.
Still, I enjoyed re-reading this and I'm happy to continue on with the series! I really wish this got picked up by a publisher again for re-release in the states, it's a solid series and I feel like it still has a lot of value that readers can appreciate even today.
