Sensual Phrase (Kaikan Phrase) Vol.3 (edition 2004)

The ending of volume 2 left off with one heck of a cliffhanger and I was really looking forward to finding out the resolution. I was a little disappointed that although it started off very dramatically the situation seemed to be resolved in a rather anit-climactic way. The newer storyline finds Sakuya acting opposite his first love which heightens all of Aine's already high insecurities.

I'm still really enjoying this manga. Even though in parts Sakuya can be deliberately crude, mainly because he is always trying to shock Aine, it really doesn't lessen his appeal over all. This is an interesting rock star fantasy with very mature themes. ( )
