Heine and the princes have overcome many a difficulty together, deepening the mutual trust between the teacher and his pupils. But even though Heine has walked closely alongside the princes as they slowly come into their own, the royal tutor himself still remains a mystery to them. When Count Rosenberg claims to know who he really is, could Heine's secretive past become public knowledge?

Opět vtipné epizodky ze života princů, ale po ukončení předchozího dílu jsem doufala, že se konečně na scénu dostane dědic -

Gibt hier wieder nicht viel Neues zu sagen - ich habe Band 6 wie die Vorgänger super gerne gelesen. Die Mangas lassen sich auch sehr schnell lesen, also perfekt für Zwischendurch!

3.5/5 (My average of all 6 chapters was 21, so it’s exactly 3.5!)

It was good - but not as good as the early ones. I am finding it’s losing some of its charm with the repetitive nature of how the brothers act. And at this point I need a little more of the overarching story/Heine’s back story and more about Prince Eins (and the count who is in the mix) for it to be satisfying.

Right when we think we’re getting some of those details in the first chapter, it goes nowhere fast. I can’t imagine having to wait months (or even years!) for the next volume and then we get nothing out of their conversation. It was frustrating reading it even in quick succession.

Also why is there never any mention of the Queen/their mom (or moms? I’m not clear on if all have the same mother…)

Seems like maybe their mother may have passed since their dad is always so emotional about them all the time but in a flashback to when Licht was very little he was the same with them and Adele wasn’t born yet so I don’t really know. Maybe Adele has a different mother? She’s always with their grandma so I guess their mom is gone?

Either way, these abundance of questions right here tell you how little detail we’ve got and it’s annoying me that we never hear about the women in their life! Adele gets a little time in this one but it’s starting to feel a little too male heavy and I need some more diversity of characters in here. At least bring back Kai’s fiancée sometime? (Unless I’m wrong looks like maybe she’s in the next volume?).

I did like the story about Bruno teaching the kids at the church the most. At first I was annoyed again with Bruno sulking over needing to be better but then it took a pleasant turn into that story.

Anyway… I hope we get more. The end suggests this is like a 2010s HBO show with the way they drop a massive cliffhanger and then don’t do much with it.

In Summary

This volume begins with what looks like big trouble for Heine and his four students in the form of Count Rosenberg. However, the steward of the eldest prince quickly recedes to the backdrop after throwing around vague remarks, and Volume 6 winds up a series of fluffy, filler chapters. Court Rosenberg does make another appearance at the very end of the book though, and it’s a tantalizing glimpse that makes me hope the next volume will actually shed light on his true agenda.

The Review

Volume 5 ended with what appeared to be the start of an ominous confrontation between the nefarious-looking Count Rosenberg and Heine. However, in true Royal Tutor fashion, Heine refuses to rise to the count’s baiting and almost immediately dispels his threatening air. As such, we don’t get much more dirt on Rosenberg or Heine, save for a pointed remark about Heine tutoring at a church prior to working at the palace. While it does rekindle interest in Heine’s true identity in Chapter 30, it mainly serves to highlight Leonhard’s childishness when he has a jealous fit at the thought of Heine’s other students.

And that’s it for Volume 6’s intrigue. Next, the mood alternates between endearing and comical as Heine continues to shape the princes into suitable candidates for the throne in four standalone chapters. While Kai’s and Bruno’s stories deal with the topic of school, Heine’s lessons have nothing to do with book learning and deal instead with building their character. Thus, Licht and Bruno learn (separately) to take consideration of others, Kai learns to speak up for what he believes in, and Leonhard accepts a task he’d rather reject. Regarding the Leonhard-centric chapter, Akai-sensei’s finally found a way to poke fun at Leonhard that doesn’t involve academics (for which I am grateful), but even so, he still winds up looking like the family idiot.

The volume wraps up with a final silly chapter in which the four brothers volunteer to clean Heine’s room. It is a task none of them are familiar with, and their team dynamics are already full of quirks so their efforts predictably wind up in chaos. However, their determination to please Heine and the objects they encounter in his room do make the chapter entertaining nonetheless.

Extras include bonus manga printed on the inside of the cover; three-page bonus story; and first page printed in color.

So this is the last volume my library has, so I will have to wait for a bit in order to read the next volume, until I can request books from another library.
This was a good volume and I liked the plot development, I also liked the last chapter and the character introduced at the end of the volume.
Good series, good pace, good volume.

A fun series. Cute boys being cute and trying so hard to be good. I enjoy the use of chibi and the character interactions. The mild drama is just enough to make the cute and pure weighty rather than flighty.

Yaaay, we got more Kai in this volume! I got to see my baby more, yaaaaaaaay!

*ahem* this was a good volume with some pretty solid character developments and moments from the princes. I wonder if we'll be seeing the mysterious Eins anytime soon...

Another great volume with some intrigue and excitement! I love the illustrations and attention to detail with each character design.
I love getting to know each of the characters a little more in each volume.

I liked that the chapters this volume were connected and ended in one concluding chapter. The story will probably proceed in the next volume, after this filler volume.

So good chapters in this one, but not nearly as entertaining as book 5 was. I have a feeling that book 7 will not disappoint based on the ending to book 6.

Are the princes' setbacks all due to the machinations of one man, working for their older brother?

The princes are growing into better people ever chapter. They all work very hard to try to achieve their goals of becoming king.

We find out a little more about who Professor Heine is. And we might finally meet Prince Eins in the next book.
