Skip Beat! Vol 16

Summary:

Big confrontation at the door of Ren's room! Although it was Momose who was searching for Kyouko, Shou tag along as well. And he revealed all about the stalking & how he saved Kyouko! Ren got SOOOOOOOOOOOO MAD!!! In fact, he was so shocked that he asked all of them, including poor Kyouko, to leave him alone for a while. Kyouko who never saw him this angry before kept thinking that it's her fault for not telling Ren sooner. Back in his own room, Shou got worried as well because he did not expect this reaction from Ren. Shou realized that Ren really likes Kyouko, and not just as a senpai-kouhai relationship.

Next morning, Ren bumped into Kyouko & Momose. Kyouko profusedly apologized to Ren for what happened, but Ren with a smile, told her to avoid speaking to him from now onwards! Thank goodness it just a dream!!! (I really thought it might be real...haizzzzzzzzz). But the dream really got her depress....and so she decided to take a morning walk at the forest nearby. Guess who should she met, if not Ren himself!

Ren, who regretted his reaction the night before is worried that Kyouko would now be to afraid of him, while Kyouko was still thinking of the dream! It was one awkward meeting between our 2 leads. However, Kyouko again gather up courage to talk and apologize to Ren. She explained everything that happened and things seems to be back normal for now. They both return back to the hotel.

Ren had breakfast with Yashiro in the room & decided to walk down the stairs (instead of taking the lift) as exercise, but on his way, he overheard a confrontation between Kyouko & Shou!!! Shou seems to be on the verge of confessing to Kyouko that he still loves her, when Ren decides to intervene. Here again, Shou not only could see that Ren really likes Kyouko, but that Kyouko didn't realize his feelings!

Ren gave an excuse of not having breakfast yet to get Kyouko out of there, which means he had 2 breakfast that day! For Ren who can't eat much, this means indigestion problems! LOLZ.....In fact, Ren got so sick that he decided to skip lunch and rest. A naughty Yashiro decided to tell a guilty Kyouko (because she thought it was because she made him eat too much) to go comfort Ren in the bus.

Some really cute conversation between Kyouko&Ren, and it ended with a lap pillow!!!! Oo la la@#&$^* Kyouko's lap as Ren's pillow ~ he's so lucky ne?? And some very vague flashback of Ren's dark past is shown again here....something to do with murder??? Hmmm....

Meanwhile, we can see politics between Shou & the Beagles. Shou decided to leak some stupid pig song as well as a remake of the Beagle's own song to them, taunting them & showing that he realizes that they're stealing his songs. Shou decided to take things into his own hands, and confiscated all media devices so to prevent any further leaking! The legendary era of Shou begins?

Review:

Wow, eversince Ren realizes his own feelings of Kyouko, he is revealing more & more of it in front of everyone! But the blur Kyouko will definitely be the last one to see it, eventhough like the previous volume, Kyouko has, in a way, become dependant on Ren - she was so afraid that his anger will ultimately push her away from him (like in the dream). To Kyouko, an angry Ren who still speaks to her is better than a Ren who does not want to acknowledge her presence.

Here, we (i mean me, at least) finally see Shou in some positive light, especially in his fight with the Beagles. But I still hate this guy!
