Kiss Me at the Stroke of Midnight, Vol. 6

Today’s post is on Kiss Me at the Stroke of Midnight, Vol. 6 by Rin Mikimoto.  It is 176 pages long and is published by Kodansha Comics. The cover is an illustration of Hinana and Kaede looking cute together. As it is the sixth in the series, you need to have read the first five volumes to understand the story. There is no foul language, very mild sexuality, and no violence in this book. The intended reader is someone who likes modern, sweet love stories and mild celebrity drama. The story is told from third person close of the main characters. There Be Spoilers Ahead. 

From the back of the book-A Bold Move
Shu has captured photographic evidence of Kaede’s relationship with Hinana and threatens to expose it to the entire world- unless Hinana breaks up with Kaede! While Hinana attempts to convince Shu otherwise, she faces bigger challenges and is at the mercy of Shu’s every demand!

Review- Hinana and Shu get to know each other and Shu learns why Kaede wants to be with Hinana. Shu in the end deletes the photo and even supports them. That is most of this volume, character growth for Shu and seeing how Hinana will handle Kaede’s old friends. There is some about Hinana feeling that she is not pretty enough to be with Kaede but that is handled quickly and done well. A very sweet but slow volume that is building up to a major plot dump in the next volume with Kaede telling Hinana that he wants her to know what happened in his past. I am very curious about what he is going to reveal. 

I give this manga a Four out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I bought this manga with my own money.
