Gigant volume 6 - Hiroya Oku

 The story continues of the lovely Chiho, and hopefully this volume satisfies a bit more then the previous tome.


Still, I`m a fan of the series, and now I`m already over the halfway mark.  I guess it's about time to pre-order the next volumes as well.

And this volume starts with the four strange travellers... discovering cup noodles!  But Chiho and Rei don`t let it get to their head, as they go on a romantic holiday together.  But with Chiho being recognised everywhere, it's hard for Rei to ignore the people and relax completely.  And then comes the stress of a ripped condom...
 
When mobsters pick a fight with the four travellers, we get to see that they have different abilities though then Papico, as one of them disolves a guy with her tears, while another gets larger and bulletproof. 



It is however rumoured that Rei and Chiho are a couple, making her punishable by law for having a relationship with an underaged schoolboy.  The media jumps on this, and makes life hard for the couple.  After Rei gets beaten up at school, he decides to temporary break up with Chiho until he comes of age.

In the meantime, America even failed with nukes to stop the satan demon...

Well, this book picks up again after the for me rather weak previous volume, with some nice in depth storytelling. Even though it is by far the most "cultured" book in the series so far...
