I really liked how Kaguya-sama: Love is War vol 12 started with Shirogane making a decisive decision when he’ll confess to Kaguya. only Chika, their secretary and Ishigami, their treasurer, seem ready to innocently mess up their careful machinations. and neither wants to be the "loser!" As both are geniuses and quite proud they spend each day laying in wait for an opportunity to get the other to confess without losing face.
Received an advance reader copy in exchange for a fair review from Viz Media LLC, via Edelweiss.Kaguya is the vice president of their prestigious academy’s student council and she's in love with, Miyuki, the president, and he with her! BUT both are well aware that in love there is always a winner.
I must say, the artwork in these chapters was weird – usually it is normal for manga artists to extract lineart from pictures for backgrounds, but doing so also for people? Yikes! It felt so mismatched and othering to see the Indian characters in ‘realistic’ style and then there’s Maki and her brother in a typical manga style, not to mention the proportions in one scene were so weird and awkward! Finally, we have Maki going to India on vacation with her twin brother, because she is ‘seeking englightenment’. Miko, meanwhile, is feeling jealous and when she gets a chance, she ties Ishigami to her, while he guiltily goes along. To be honest, I was a bit uncomfortable with Tsubame’s reasons – I like, though, that Ishigami realized and called it out. Meanwhile, Ishigami and Miko are invited to a party at Tsubame (Kei is also there), and while Ishigami is getting romantic vibes from Tsubame, he is surprised when she makes advances too. Like, Miyuki and Kaguya are stressing out over whether or not to hold hands on their date, and how forward the other might think them to be and what date are they technically on, and which relationship milestone has passed by. Since Kaguya and Miyuki are now dating, they have toned down the competitiveness a bit, but they have a whole other war going on in their minds about how to behave now. Warnings: underage drinking, physical injuryĪ Christmas-centric volume, it goes over how they all spent their winter-break, from Kaguya enlisting Ishigami to help her buy a gift for Miyuki, to where Ishigami and Miko are in their awkward friendship, and Ishigami’s feelings regarding Tsubame. India is the land of spiritual enlightenment. Will Kaguya and Miyuki ever go beyond making out and get around to officially going out?! What game is Miko playing when she interferes with Yu and Tsubame’s fledgling intimacy? Meanwhile, Kaguya tries to choose the perfect gift for Miyuki, Yu tries to choose the perfect gift for Tsubame, and Miyuki’s dad goes into the fortune-telling business!
