Knight of the Ice, Vol. 4

Today’s post is on Knight of the Ice, Vol. 4 by Yayoi Ogawa. It is 176 pages long and is published by Kodansha Comics. The cover has Kokoro dressed in his new costume for his new program. As it is the fourth in the series you need to have read the first three volumes in the series to understand the story. There is no foul language, no sex, and no violence in this series. The intended reader is someone who likes sports and romance manga. The story is told from third person close of mostly Chitose. There Be Spoilers Ahead.

From the back of the book- ON THIN ICE

Chitose and Kokoro start to take baby steps in adjusting from childhood friends to lovers, but their newfound relationship soon finds itself on thin ice. After the paparazzi catches model Liza Shibata leaving Kokoro's apartment, rumors begin spreading that the two of them are a couple. Chitose knows that the rumors are groundless, but still can't help but feel a pang of jealously. Meanwhile, Kokoro tries to show Chitose that he only has eyes for her, but for an otaku like Kokoro who doesn't know the first thing about romance, that may be easier said than done... 

Review- We are starting to get romance complications between Chitose and Kokoro, like his family wanting to marry him off to an heiress, still unknown, and a model who pretends to be his girlfriend to get into his apartment. His family is going to be a problem for them but how will Kokoro handle them? Does he love Chitose enough to not put up with their actions or is he going to be wishy-washy? I’m afraid that he is going to be wishy-washy but I could be wrong. That is pretty much all that happened in this volume with the addition of two cheek kisses but no other movement either plot or character. But a slow volume is not bad. I hope we get more plot development in the next volume. 

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