Don't Be Fooled, November 3, 2007
This review is from: Pichi Pichi Pitch 7: Mermaid Melody (Pichi Pichi Pitch: Mermaid Melody) (Paperback)
Ok, as good as this book was, don't let the "Volume 7" part trick you. Pichi Pichi Pitch definatly ended with volume 6 (as i'm sure most of you suspected or already knew.) Anyway, all this volume contains (that is Pichi related) are two short side stories (One about the tragic romance of YuriXHippo, the other a short story about Luchia getting sick and having a flash back about the day she met Kaito. It's very short and simple and not the great big romance scene I had had in mind based on all of the other romantic parts in the books) and a 3-page tribute to Michal (who I personally can't stand, and I think coming in 30th in the popularity contest serves her right!). Anyway, these 3 small things don't even make up 30% of the book, and the bulk of it is taken up by 3 other mangas by Hanamori-Sensei. These are the three one shots "Get Nude", "Moon Goddess Diana" and "Cherry Blossom". In fact, the preview of volume 7 featured in volume 6 was actually an excerpt from "Get Nude". Now, don't get me wrong, these three manga are.... ok, but they are no where near the quality of Pichi. Also, i found it very dissapointing that the three male leads of these stories all look almost exactly like Kaito. I would have apreciated some variety, but Hamamori-Sensei has really pulled a Yuu Watase on us :P. In conclusion, if you were satisfied with volume six's ending, then this volume is rather superfluous. However, if you are completely addicted to Pichi, or are interested in Hanamori-Sensei's other works following Pichi, then it is worth it.

Glad I borrowed it instead of bought it, October 6, 2011
This review is from: Pichi Pichi Pitch 7: Mermaid Melody (Pichi Pichi Pitch: Mermaid Melody) (Paperback)
This final volume is 3 "after" stories. The first story is Hippo and Yuri. This was a cute story and I actually was more interested than I thought I would be. The second story was a very quick look at Michal and Rhito. I was glad it was short because they were likely my least favorite characters in the second story arc. The third story was Lucia's fate. I was hoping for a story that went more in depth into some of the other girls, but I still like Lucia and the story flowed well. Unfortunately, though, as after stories go there was nothing too conclusive about any of them. They were completely unnecessary but they were still good filler.
