Skip Beat!: Volume 25

by Yoshiki Nakamura, 179 pages

Last volume's misunderstandings cause Sho to do something unexpected, but Kyoko's angry clarification of reality (she sits him down in front of a chalkboard and draws him a picture!) causes him to do something positively shocking, dropping a very calculated bomb on both her and his competition (i.e., Ren). And it works, too. But Ren's not a man you want to mess with....

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! I'm laughing out loud just trying to write this. I don't want to spoil the fun with details, but, oh, the games these fellas are playing. :D And poor, normally resourceful Kyoko is caught in the middle without understanding what's really going on. At least Ren's looking out for her as well as his own interests (actually, the reader's kind of excited to see him pursue his own, too, for once--progress!). The same can't be said of crazy Sho. I feel a little sorry for him, actually. He has yet to realize how his audaciously clever ploy has been countered and to what degree. In fact, because of him, perhaps a wee little something has at last been set in motion? Maybe? *squee*
