review 1: Take a moment to look at that gorgeous cover of Prince Soma. Wow. It's one of the best parts of this volume. It started out good then sort of took a right turn into ho-hum.It picks up back at the school. Desperate to see the boys the Queen has sent him to check up on, Ciel needs to find a way into the Purple House (as part of Blue House he's forbidden to enter a house of another color). His solution? Psychotic. He sets the joint on fire but it didn't really help. Now he needs to find the elusive headmaster.A new plan arises: play in the intramural cricket match which is a BIG deal. Ciel manages it thanks to Sebastian (since Ciel and all of blue house have zero athletic ability). Everyone turns out for this including Lizzie and her parents. Her brother is on another team op... moreposing Ciel.At first I thought this is very uncomfortably close to Harry Potter with a sports match AND each house parading in showing off in a grand way then I thought wait a minute, maybe this really IS how things go in an English boarding school. I would have no idea. I'm hoping it's that and not a HP rip off.That said, other than seeing Soma being excellent at cricket (since he's usually the comic foil),it is extremely boring to watch sports in a graphic novel (seriously, I don't get sports manga at all). Of course that's my opinion as someone who pretty much like football and that's it. Hopefully this part will be over soon come next volume.
review 2: You can't help but fall in love with the covers. I thought they were okay in the beginning, but as the series progressed, the later volumes, got even more eye catching and in a way, beautifully drawn, well colored in.In this one, I'm liking the series again. I liked it before yes but I was like eh, then oh okay this is good, to wow that was really good.Makes me want to see the anime again, even if it got a little, a lot different later on. Still, its a good volume. less
