This review is from: Psychic Academy, Vol. 6 (Paperback)

As Volume 6 of Psychic Academy begins, Ai is locked in a fight with an agent from ADC, an organization that experiments on humans with aura power in a bid to give psychic abilities to ALL people. While this might be a worthy cause, the scientists have no qualms about ruining the lives of their subjects and making them outright captives. ADC has come to Psychic Academy because of the stories of Ai possessing a "light aura". If he loses the battle, he will have to leave his friends behind and go to America, where he will become the prime test subject for ADC! On a more romantic note, Ai is still dealing with the fact that the girl in his long ago dream of his first love was not Orina, but Mew! And she's starting to regain some memories from her own dream.

Psychic Academy continues it's more adult take of a Harry Potteresque adventure which is heavy on fan service but always remains firmly rooted in action and good-natured comedy. Don't get me wrong, it's not a harem comedy. It's more shojo, focusing on the triangle between Ai, Mew, and Orina. Ai loves Orina, but feels a bond beyond words with Mew....or maybe he loves her too. Hopefully, by the end of the series, this will be settled. The characters are intriguing and likeable and the art suits the manga with its more sexy take of a Tezuka-like cartoon style.

This review is from: Psychic Academy, Vol. 6 (Paperback)

This is one of those series that has the poor main character grabbing the girl's breats all the time even though he doesn't mean to! By this point of the series, Ai is realising that it may be Mew that was on the beach with him in the dream, not his girlfriend. So he's wondering now what he should do. Read and enjoy!
