@Von Himmel, you might be looking at v4, which is close to the thickness of Horizon's thinnest books

.

For me, I hate the explanations of stuff that's useless to plot or offer hardly any character development. For physics of magic, just bring it on

Shizuku does a move -> long explanation several times longer than the description of Shizuku's move -> Miyuki counter move -> another long explanation -> Shizuku does an unexpected move -> another explanation -> Miyuki's finishing move -> another explanation. Granted, Miyuki's move explanation isn't that long, but it still break immersion considering those moves are supposed to be done in short intervals between each other.

IMO, the flow will be much better if the author just finished describing the match first, then write the commentaries of what just happened on the match. Well, it's just anopinion of mine though so feel free to take it with a grain of salt

That would work so well on the eventual Anime adaptation

But still he will be known throughout the world as the never aging technician if his real identity isn't found out.

young miyuki once fearful/unattached to tatsuya

the visit experience most importantly the near death encounter caused this change

Mentar · 2012-12-10, 05:37

Aww, sweet

And as far as I know, this is the first time ever that Angie/Sirius has been drawn, right? (Even though we only see her from the back)

Well, I will read vol.8 in... 4 hours, without sleeping if necessary. Btw, are there any pictures of those nice illustrations?

The Shiba siblings' mom is such a hottie. She must be a very unpleasant woman to live with to make her husband long for his average-looking former lover though...
