And welp, this volume looks like it's wasting little to no time with the set up. Expecting to a see Kotori's role getting expanded in this story and hopefully worth something to remember about. As for Shidou, well...they better bring him back to his senses.

I can give you the link of full translation though... Baka-tsuki isn't exactly reliable nowadays and they're not only one who translates DAL.

Of course its quality is not baka-tsuki's quality, but still enjoyable, rather than waiting baka-tsuki to translate that could be 2-3 more months to finish.

From prologue to afterword

This volume was mixed bag, it was extremely enjoyable for the most part, Miku going lewding on both Shidou and the girls was great (best idol), Ellen got that cute moment, lol, and overall I did enjoy the concept of reversing the formula (Kaguya and Yuzuru ice cream scene was HOT), also Mana is back, nice!

My only problem is how they do the resolution, it was cool seeing Shidou going OP and gigolo making everyone blush, but how they handled the kissing felt forced, which sucks cuz all the girls trying to seduce Shidou had realy enjoyable scenes going on (Origami had the best art drawn for this volume O.O, we need more drunk Origami, also more of angel vs devil inside her head).
So the way it abrutly gets solved was lacking, it was going smoothly then time to finish this shit, and it just felt soo rushed & forced!

At least Tohka realizing her feelings was cute, in fact she kissed him twice this around and wanted to kill even more, at the end she really stole the show, even I was got fuzzy when she said she wanted to kiss him 7 times for sealing the other spirits, she is getting bolder and I like it!

As always it was still a very pleasant reading, and I cant wait to jump on the next one, wanna see the mettle that 2nd Spirit is made of!

(Kinda weird no one other than me posted out full reflections about the whole volume)
