Tsukushi realizes that she would have Rui to herself if Shizuka left for France as planned, but she doesn't want to be like the other scheming girls at her school. So she begs Shizuka to stay in Japan for Rui's sake. Domyoji asks Tsukushi for a date at the airport that Shizuka is leaving from, but his sweet words are drowned out by the sound of jets passing by.

Oh boy...need an editor for this volume,
By Cat Chow "rebeckie44" (Still in front of my computer) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Boys Over Flowers, Vol. 4: Hana Yori Dango (Boys Over Flowers: Hana Yori Dango) (Paperback)
While the series continues to be my favorite, I have to be fair and say that this translated volume was a bit diappointing. Maybe I am nitpicking, but wording is everything in a story. First. at the party, Tsukushi runs into Tsukasa after he brushes of two business associates of his father's. She is quoted as saying "I apologize" for the attack that happened in Vol. 3. She's not the one apologizing in the Japanese volume. It should've been translated as: "apologize" a request, because let's face it...why should she apologize to him for that? Next error I found in the book: at the airport Rui appears after Shizuka left..then all of a sudden the page that follows is about the date that happens with Tsukushi and Tsukasa...Maybe again, it was just my volume, but the sequence where Tsukushi tells Rui bluntly to go after Shizuka is completely missing. After one page, the story continues on like normal. That was annoying. The last error I found was Sakurako calling Tsukushi Tsukasa! I mean their names are similar, but I think Viz can afford an editor to avoid these errors. I'm really disappointed with this volume and hope that Viz don't mess up Volume 5 which is one of the most important volumes in the series. This is a great series that has a lot of emotional up and downs, but we don't need disappointment added due to poor translations and editing. Come on, Viz. Pull your act together.

Boys over Flowers(Hana Yori Dango): Volume 4,
By
This review is from: Boys Over Flowers, Vol. 4: Hana Yori Dango (Boys Over Flowers: Hana Yori Dango) (Paperback)
One thing I have really noticed while reading Hana Yori Dango(currently on Volume 31), is the progression of the drawings. If you look you can even see a fairly big difference in the quality of drawings between volumes 1 & 4. And the drawings just keep getting better and better, Domiyogi eventually loses his "Marie Antionette" hair, and of course the early 90's styles get the boot too(hehe). So even if those are things that bug you about HYD, stick with it, not only do the drawings get better, but so does the story. :DIn Volume 4 we come back to where we left off in Volume 3, Shizuka announcing her leaving Japan forever AND cutting off her georeous hair at her own birthday party (I suggest NOT reading this paragraph anymore if you DON'T want ANYTHING spoiled. Otherwise, read on. :D). Because Shizuka is leaving Tsukushi is torn between her feelings for Rui, she knows if Shizuka leaves, she have him ALL to herself, but she also really likes Shizuka because she's been nothing but kind. Meanwhile, as Shizuka leaves Domiyogi ask for a date, but Tsukushi can't hear over the airplanes, he the tells her later when and where to meet him, but he's like "Ummmm What is he talking about?". This time Tsukushi feels obligated to meet him, yet she doesn't really want to.... I'd like to tell you more, but it would just ruin it. So I wont.! All I can tell you is, that for the next 20 Volumes or so, you'll be riding the roller coaster of your life.! If there is one thing I hate about Hana Yori Dango it is this: Once you stop reading, YOU DON'T WANT TO STOP.! And at this rate Viz wont have all the volumes out for 6yrs, so if you can't wait, like me, I suggest finding the Japanese books(you can find them pretty cheap on Sasugabooks.com) and looking up some translations, or finding scanslations(or going on Ebay to get them). Because this series leaves you hanging in pretty much EVERY SINGLE volume. So when I think that Japan had to wait 10yrs for the series to finish, yipes(36 Volumes).! So really, all-in-all I would rank Boys Over Flowers(Hana Yori Dango), as my absolute fav manga, and quite possibly my favorite romance tale of all times(Ranking up there with Jane Eyre and Pride and Prejudice). Tsukushia and Tsukasa are my favorite couple. Not only that but reading this manga has also made me think a lot, especially in the later volumes. So *enjoy*! God Bless ~Amy

This review is from: Boys Over Flowers, Vol. 4: Hana Yori Dango (Boys Over Flowers: Hana Yori Dango) (Paperback)
ok so im not gonna write a page long essay about the story, cuz that defeats the purpose of others reading it. i had read this story years ago, loved it, and had to own it... problem was that i was having trouble finding them in stores. found this used, for such a cheap price. had no damage to the cover, binding, or any of the pages inside. very happy with my purchase! :) recommend people buy this series of manga. :)
