This is a really good book, and you should read it. It looks into Toya's and Aya's relationship and Yuhi's affection for Aya. A girl who looks just like Aya shows up, apparently Toya's girlfriend from before, and Toya gets hit by a car while in shock from seeing Miori again. He regains his memory from before... but he loses all memories of his year with Aya. There's also a teeny bit of comedy from Yuhi's 'emotional breakdowns' concerning his jealousy, enough so you don't end up screaming or crying at the end, or something.
However, if you buy this volume, you MUST buy the next one. This one's last few pages are the most intense part in the whole book, with a bit of build-up, but not that much. It also gives you a huge cliffhanger, and I pretty much ran around in a panic trying to get the next volume. Save yourself the pain :D.

Yu Watase never fails to deliver, and this book is no exception. Dramatic, enticing, eloquent, heart-wrenching, beautifully tragic. What more can I say? Yu Watase does push some emotional buttons here, taking her well-developed characters to the max and putting them in situations that show their true colors(especially Yuhi...read the book, and you'll see what I mean). If you've seen the anime and think you don't need to read the manga, you're completely wrong...So much was left out of the tv series...The characters really are taken to a whole new level(especially Shuro,in my opinion(but that's another book, not this one...). Please check this out. I can guaruntee you will NOT be dissappointed, maybe a little depressed...Just prepare yourself for angst and turmoil^^;!

Talk about a blast from the past, in this case, Toya's past as he encounters a girl who was with him before he lost his memory... of course, this can only lead to problems between Aya and Toya... definitely not a volume to miss! Be forewarned, the last few pages are intense, and you will WANT to have the next volume on hand before you finish this otherwise you will be screaming from the cliffhanger!

Ceres volume 8 is too... everything. This crazy volume is a pivotal one (well, they all are) in which we meet Miori, Toya's `girlfriend' from before he had amnesia. An OK read, this volume loads a little too much on sex and not enough on the Ceres-Progenitor factor.

If you're a Ceres fan, it's a buy, but not a must buy.

I love Ceres Celestial Legend. In fact, I love all of Yu Watase's work. This book was a little intense though. If your a Ceres Celestial Legend fan, its going to be upsetting to read. It also has so many things happening in it that its hard to grasp everything the first time you read it. Even if i knew the what would happen in this book before i read it, i would still buy it. Its a good book...just intense. So even though its intense, upsetting, and has a lot of info crammed into it--- I still recommend buying it. If you skip this book and then read the next one, you might be completely lost...
