As Yaya's feelings for Moriyama increase, she feels torn between him and her love (infatuation) for Shohei, the lead singer of the now defunct band Juliet. If only she knew that Shohei, sans make-up and entourage is now pursuing her alter ego, Nana! And who is Nana pursuing, you might ask? It seems like the long ago dreams of Yaya, as she tries to muscle in to Moriyama's band, the Black Dogs. Shohei tries to convince her that he wants to manage her career and get her a break into the business, but is he sincere? Maybe you should ask his pet alligator who acts like a woman scorned! And not all of the fans of Moriyama's fans are happy about Nana hogging the stage. Enter Megumi Hano, Black Dog super-fan and Moriyama-stalker who slaps Nana in the face over it and replaces Moe and Seri as Nana's #1 enemy.

While the first and second volumes of Othello were charming and funny, I'm beginning to wonder where this book can go now. Hopefully, it will develop a bit more than it did here. It seems to be playing awfully close to "average" manga level. It's still a good book, but it could be better.
