Library Wars: Love & War: Volume 5

by Kiiro Yumi (story and art) and Hiro Arikawa (original concept), 189 pages

Instructor Komaki gets arrested on suspicion of abusing a person with disabilities, but his colleagues--especially the insightful females--know better than to believe that.

Ok, so this volume goes a little overboard with the cheesy. I'll forgive it, because it just is what it is, but I hope future ones don't swing quite so far into embarrassingly fluffy melodrama as this one. I still like it and want to see how the librarians with guns fend off the censoring feds and their servile minions and how Iku and Dojo work out their little unacknowledged romance, but I can do without the awkward attempts to take obvious schmaltz seriously.
