One of my favorites so far in the series. Aqua really developed and I loved being introduced to new characters and reading them as they developed too!

Finally! Finally some hardships for Jinwoo! I was getting a little bored with all of the wins after wins after each battle, but now there seems be a bigger pot that is being stirred. We get hints to the overall plot and learn more about the system. This was what I have been waiting for: amazing fight scenes plus some info on how and why Jinwoo is "a player" in the system.

Exciting! Aqua and Ruby are getting ready for a new school that has an entertainment department, but Aqua isn't actually focusing on entertainment anymore????
A really good sequel, it brings us to the present while keep some characters from the past like Kana. I don't think we're going to see the interview panels anymore. But my favorite character is still Aqua and I'm curious to see what he's going to find as he looks into AIs past.

5 stars because I sooooo glad that Yuki and Naruae are finally learning about communication and realizing how important they are to each other. We are blessed by her neighbor who finally talked some sense to her! Also that extra chapter at the end where Naruse was serious for bit!!! So cute!!!

This was soooooo good! I was not expecting a murder mystery to come out from such a cute cover! I absolutely loved it; the storytelling and the interviews interspersed within the story were really good. It was chef kiss when it all came together at the end. I can't wait to see what Aqua discovers and if Ruby will become an idol!

Not my favorite vol as it was a lot of exposition, though necessary. We're basically introduced to all of the S Hunters from Japan and Jinwoo gets stronger and meets a new character Esil a demon who's super cute and I wonder if we'll meet her again??
