Oh this was purely delightful! I loved it so much! Just the duality of his character and how much he loves Panda! And making friends which probably only counts on his day off but stil!!

The aunties are such a ride in this! Being on their home turff and anything! It was a hoot to have them around and damn did the narrator do such a good job! I am excited and hopeful we will get to see another installment of their shenigans!

Oh GOD DAMNIT!! C'mon you guys!!! This was the best kind of mess !! But they are all falling apart and without their normal fuck around and find out session they are all floundering. It's literally falling apart at the seams and honestly I am living on hope of a prayer for it all!! But honestly the scene at the gala is going to be living rent free in my life... like I almost cried!! Just such a perfect balance of angst with a dash of spice!!

OH hell to the  yes!!  This book did NOT back down !! It went full throttle and I was so here for the ride ! Goddamn I love this kinky culty world!! Like blessings all around !! But the angst is perfectly balanced and the smut is so tasty that I continue wanted to ask for MORE! The twist was something that I had picked up on half way through and I am intrigued to see how it plays out!!! Can't wait for more of Thronechapel!!!

Welll helloooo rom com!! Damn did this volume have it all!! Locker slamming scene--Check! Fixing an injury---Check!!! 10 SECONDS!!! That's a double check and something I didn't even know I needed to see and now i have THOUGHTS about how I would like to see this go through!! I was worried when the test results came back!! But now I am just so excited to see how their relationship continues to grow!!!! Just the sweetest of beans!!!

Oh Hirano!! I loved that he finally realized he feels somethings towards Kagiura!! I mean his actions certainly speak for that... not that his brain or heart have fully caught up to that because damn he doesn't realize what the heck he is doing to poor Kagiura! But damn do I love a good little drama over chocolate!! Tasty is a word the describe both the situation and the gift!

Well this was fantastic!! Kagiura is down bad and is just so honest about his feelings!! Hirano doesn't fully comphrend what he is feeling! I doubt the boy knows what being in love truly is! But waking up at the butt crack of dawn to ensure your roommates gets to practice on time.... COUNTS!!! Also he CALLED him to ask what he wanted as a gift!! And ensuring they are roommates!?!? Man it is going to be an absolute disaster when he figures this all out! And I am so looking forward to it!!!

Okay but why am I squealing at these two!!! They are simply ridiculous!!! Hirano and Kagiura had my attention in the other manga but NOW !!! I was woefully unprepared by how much I was going to buy into their romance!! Even though it is going to a be a slow burn to end all slow burns! One for the ages that I am buckled up and ready to take on!!
