Great volume. At the end of the last one, Ogami suddenly reverted to his true adult body in the middle of a double date with his school friends. Luckily for him, it’s only temporary. Less luckily, while he was indisposed, someone kidnapped Noren. And they turn out to be pros. Ogami has his hands full trying to save her. And it isn’t without problems. Tenma figures out Ogami’s secret—and Noren is hypnotised to fall in love with Ogami. At least Ogami’s ex-wife finds everything funny.

This was non-stop action from start to finish. No cliff-hanger ending this time, but they’re not closer to finding cure for Ogami either. I’ll have to keep reading.

I received a free copy from Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review.

Liked this more than the last but I didn't need the last little bit of this volume, I know it was not reality but still.

In this one a real danger has appeared again and we get a big fight in hired killer vs hired killer and it was an interesting battle. His new unicorn friend got involved cause he wants the girl of his dreams to fall for him. Her brother is a little overbearing but unicorn is a bit odd. No pacifier so loved that.

Onto the next!!

4/6 stars

This is one of my new favorite manga series, I am loving each volume so much. All of the characters we're getting feel so developed and unique. We're getting intriguing overarching plot points as well as exciting contained mini-plots/adventures. I have so much fun while I'm reading it, and it goes by way too quickly. I can't recommend this series enough.
