Gakuen Alice: Volume 15

by Tachibana Higuchi, 193 pages

Mikan and her classmates are in the midst of a huge athletic festival. She throws herself into the various team-based competitions, hoping to forget her problems in the process, but two-faced, malicious Luna won't let her.

Still too much screentone and too many similar faces with the added issue of lots of unnecessary filler comprised of silly competition minutia that just distracts from the real, and more serious, plot. Buried in the excessive campy festival focus are nefarious schemes and a sweet story of friendship--but you'll have to dig pretty patiently to find them.
