Inu x Boku SS #9
Inu x Boku SS, Vol. 9
At first, the residents of Ayakashi Hall are baffled by the discovery of a time capsule containing letters in their own handwriting, apparently from their future selves. But Natsume's ability to see beyond confirms the truth, and he is overwhelmed by the future he glimpses. The others aren't sure they want to know the full extent of what is to come when it has so obviously rattled Natsume and their later selves. Even with that knowledge, what can they do differently to face the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons?!

This is so good, I am loving it even more than ever before. I'm sad and scared for the characters, but I am super excited to continue this series. It is exciting to see what is going to happen next. I have been surprised many times during this series and did not expect this to happen after the anime. The manga has a more powerful plot that takes place after the anime. It is fun to see the characters I love but it is scary because I don't want any of them to die. I'm sad because of one of the characters and hope nothing happens to the others.
Ririchiyo is a girl who was born into a wealthy lifestyle. Although she had everything she wanted, she was never loved. Whenever she made friends, everyone ended up getting hurt and in order to avoid this, she disguises herself as a cold-hearted girl. She lashes out on people and says the opposite of what she was meaning to say. Later, she moves to Ayakashi de Maison and meets so many people who are just like her. And slowly, she begins to realize that it might not be so bad to surround herself with others.
I love this series so much, even though I was so confused in the middle. It was so much fun reading about all of my favourite characters. Karuta, Banri, Ririchiyo, Kage, Onii-san, Nabu-chan, and Soushi. There were so many characters that I read about and I love how unique and different they are. There aren't many mangas that I read with crazy characters like these ones. I love the plot, it is filled with suspense. I didn't expect this series to be filled with so many feels, I thought that I would have a light and fun read. This was an emotional roller coaster but it was super enjoyable.
I recommend this series to everyone, but you gotta be a patient reader in order to finish this series. It is a little confusing in the middle but everything will work out, trust me, (I learned the hard way) I can't wait to read more and I'll be off!

3.5 stars. I love Zange¡ªthere were too many interludes in a row in Volumes 8 and 9, but his interlude in this volume was really good. I also love Sorinozuka¡ªlike, a lot. And I'm REALLY GLAD the final arc is finally back to the storyline I actually *like*¡ªI feel like 90% of volumes 5-9 could probably be skipped without losing much. They would've worked better if they'd been massively condensed, imo.

(stejn¨¢ recenze u v?ech d¨ªl?)
...??? C¨ªt¨ªm se naprosto zmaten¨¢. V?bec nech¨¢pu, co se asi od 15 kapitoly d¨§lo. Sice jsem to potom n¨§jak pochopila, ale i tak tam bylo spousta v¨§c¨ª matouc¨ªch. A absolutn¨§ jsem netu?ila, pro? se to d¨§lo.
Kresba vypadala kr¨¢sn¨§. I kdy? spoustu ?asu tam byly zjednodu?en¨¦ "chibi" postavi?ky, co? byla trochu ?koda, ale i ty vypadaly vzhledov¨§ hezky a hlavn¨§ roztomile. Hodn¨§ se mi l¨ªbilo oble?n¨ª a jeho r?znorodost, na druhou stranu mi moc k n¨§jak?m charakter?m nesedlo, p?edev?¨ªm k hlavn¨ª hrdince, jen? se obl¨¦kala pom¨§rn¨§ vyz?vav¨§ a p?itom byla dost stydliv¨¢.
Vlastn¨§ skoro v?echno oble?en¨ª bylo "fanservice" :D. A toho fanservisu tam bylo dost, co? mi tro?ku vadilo. i kdy? n¨¦ zas tak moc, jeliko? m¨§ ten p?¨ªb¨§h moc nezaj¨ªmal. :D
Te? u? k samotn¨¦mu p?¨ªb¨§hu. Prvn¨ªch 15 kapitol m¨§ celkem bavilo. A od tohoto momentu m¨§ to p?estalo bavit, jeliko? jsem absolutn¨§ netu?ila, o co jde.
Takt¨¦? mi p?i?la divn¨¢ Soushiova posedlost Ririchiyo, jeliko? mezi nimi byl sedm let rozd¨ªlm a ke v?emu musela vypuknout o dost d?¨ªv¨§, kdy? bylo Riri o kolo osmi let. D: Ale na druhou stranu mi to v?bec nevadilo, jeliko? nevypadali na sv?j v¨§k. :D
Mimochodem jsem si asi nikoho z postav neobl¨ªbila neobl¨ªbila. Jako ze za?¨¢tku jsem m¨§la sympatie n¨§jak tak ke v?em, ale po t¨¦ 15 kapitole, kdy vypukl naprost? zmatek, se m¨¦ sympatie za?aly vytr¨¢cet.
Konec p?¨ªb¨§hu mi p?i?el taky divn? (jak p?ekvapiv¨¦ :D). Ale h¨¢d¨¢m, ?e byl na sv¨¦ pom¨§ry pom¨§rn¨§ dobr?. I kdy? absolutn¨§ nech¨¢pu p¨¢rov¨¢n¨ª a vztahy mezi v?emi, jeliko? na tom konci to bylo v?e divn¨¦ (jako tahle v¨§ta, kter¨¢ ned¨¢v¨¢ smysl :D).

This volume deserves nothing less than a 5 stars rating. I loved it. Three of the 5 chapters are "fillers", to show us the bond between the characters. One is about Riricho, who has to sleep 2 nights out of home (school-trip) and has to be apart from Miketsukami for the first time since forever. Miketsukami is hilarious, but he is also TOO clingy and sometimes pathetic (there, I've said it!). I love him, but sometimes his clingy-ness is a little bit (a lot, really) too much. Other "filler" is about Natsume's past, when he wasn't as smiley as he is now. And last filler is about the bond between Sorinozuka and Nobara... so nice <3
The last 2 chapters are about the Night Parade, which is the final arc **sobs**. Minna, gambatte!

More than half of this volume was filler/bonus story magerial, and the filler was of varying quality. I really liked the story with the merboy and the bit with Zange's backstory. I wasn't as wild about the school trip story (or more accurately, Mitsukami moping while Ririchiyo goes on a school trip).
When it gets back to the main story, not a lot happens, but you can tell it's beginning to ramp up for the final arc.
So, for the most part, good. A few thing I didn't like, but I feel like that's what I think about most of this series.

Los yo del futuro le escriben cartas a los yo del pasado
Y volvemos a ver a las reencarnaciones que conocimos desde el tomo 1
Aqu¨ª todos se tendr¨¢n que enfrentar a la decisi¨®n de si hacerle casos a esas cartas ocultas en la c¨¢psula del tiempo, y enfrentarse a aquel que los asesin¨®
Y ese final...
Mi amado Miketsukami, ?cu¨¢nto m¨¢s tendr¨¢s que sufrir?

~4-4.5/5
(Contains some spoilers.)
The first half of this volume continues the interludes. While I would have liked more main story, I do love everything in this series. There¡¯s an adorable chapter about Ririchiyo and Soushi, where they¡¯re separated for a short while and how they handle it. But the one that stands out is about Natsume and his past, what he went through as a kid and how he came to have the attitude he has now.
After that, we get back to normal setting and time. And this time, we¡¯re thrown back to the original time, before everyone died. I don¡¯t know if I believe it¡¯ll stay there, but it appears that things are going different now that they¡¯ve received those letters. Things have changed, and I¡¯m not sure if it¡¯s good or not, because now they¡¯re being separated.
Everything is different, and I don¡¯t know if I like it. We¡¯re heading into the final arc and it¡¯s only going to get worse, I feel, until the end.
I seriously cannot wait.

As much as I enjoy Inu x Boku SS, I get frustrated that oftentimes half of the volume is taken up with side stories. Sometimes those side stories are insightful and serve to further develop the main story, such as the case with Zange's short story in this volume. But, more often, these tangential stories interrupt the flow of the main story. When we finally do return to the overarching storyline, the volume is nearly over. It's frustrating. It's annoying. And, it detracts from my enjoyment of this series. I want to see what happens, and volume 9 ends on a compelling cliff hanger, but I really hope that volume 10 doesn't serve up another half volume of side stories before we return to our characters' current plights.

Another good volume so far in the series. 9 volumes in and the series is a pretty good read.

These interludes are magical. I haven't laughed out loud at a book OR cried at one in a while.

It was nice to read about each characters' personal lives) But I am more interested about what will happen to Soushi...
