Myung-Ee confronts the student council about their intentions toward Yu-Da, despite further proof of his unusually cruel and malicious dark side.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth the wait... [UPDATE for Volume 6 review], November 12, 2008

By	Tomogirl (NJ, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Moon Boy, Vol. 5 (v. 5) (Paperback)

I made a more spoilerish review in Live Journal, but for the non-spoiler side.

+ We find out a bit more about Sa-Eun.
+ Sa-Eun is going....spoilerspoilerspoiler...
+ We find out a bit more about Yu-Da.
+ Something happens with the lower-level Foxes.
+ New characters show up.
+ Yumei does more than just showing up and looking bored.
+ De great "Ha-Eun-NIM"....spoilerspoilerspoiler...

- Some of the translation needs to be re-edited. You try to make sense of the sentence when you realize, yeah...the sentence used more words than needed.

+ Character development in this series is really going to be everywhere with all these characters running around. Each of them have these little issues or hurdles. Hehehe... Ah, but I'm looking forward to Yu-Da's the most.

Keep it up, Yen Press!

Ok, since Amazon recently installed that one review per item set system, I'll have to add my Vol 6 review into here.

It took only two days for my order of this volume to come through the mail. Great delivery as usual, Amazon/UPS! Thank you very much!! (Although, I find your ultra thin packaging a little too much? Maybe cut down the sides a bit more.)

*Spoiler warning (plus a lot of spoiler dots)*

+ We finally see Sa-Eun going crazy on his feelings for......
+ Ha-Eun going to school and coming face to face with..... :) :)
+ Yu-Da is talking more now in front of Myung-Ee. What I'm curious about is that he mentions that his memories are..................even though he talks about................. Oh, and we also find out that he does indeed have feelings for.............
+ Chi-In and Jin-Soo get a lot of spotlight in this volume. You'll learn more about them. Especially, at the end where there's an unexpected bonus chapter. The first one I've ever seen in a manhwa (or in general, a non-Japanese comic). Also, their relationship makes a drastic turn as Chi-In makes a decision to............
+ Besides learning a bit more about those two members of the student council, you'll also learn a tiny bit more about where Sa-Eun was prior to being in the Fox Tribe. Now, if you ever read Fruits Basket, this concept is a little similar, but that's about it. I don't think Lee Young-You could write that any other way. It makes complete sense.
* You really don't want to make Yumei mad. O__O That girl is...woah. If you thought the bloody scenes in the previous volumes were mild, heh... Yumei can make a bloody impression. Lee Young-You must love using so much ink splatters and splash screentones.
* Poor Jin-Soo. :(
* Ya-Hoooooo!!
* So far, I haven't actually come across any weird wording this time except for that one particular page with Yu-Da thinking to himself and Myung-Ee acting clueless. The end of the sentence could've been adapted a bit better, I think.
* A lack of Master Yang in this volume explains why he's on the cover. ;)

Hope you continue to proofread and edit well in Volume 7, Yen Press!
