Manga Review: Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun, Volume 7, by Izumi Tsubaki


Rating (Out of 5): ~4
Publisher: Yen Press
Release Date: May 2017
Volumes: 10+
Spoilers?: No.
Volume: 1. 6. 8.

Goodreads Synopsis:

Is there love in the air, or has everyone just gone plain loony?!


Has Chiyo's affection for her brusque shoujo manga-ka beloved finally soured?! She's suddenly extorting Nozaki...and plotting his destruction in the tournament ball game...! The absurdity doesn't end there, as Wakamatsu confesses his love to Seo, the person he dislikes most...! Even Yukari starts an "adult" relationship with hilarious consequences...! Is no one safe from the crazy going around?!

Review:

In this volume, the main three attempt to stay in shape, for a short stint. We see how Seo is a hindrance to the basketball club. There's a lot of mangaka and editor issues, and Nozaki attempts to research what bullying is like—it doesn't really work well with Sakura, since she likes Nozaki too much.
I love all of the interactions in this series, to be fair, but I particularly love when Seo and Kashima show up. They're very different characters, and I love their reactions. They're definite scene stealers.
These volumes are a really nice break at times, and just what I need some days. They're so much fun to read.
