The Savior's Book Café Story in Another World, Vol. 4

(Rating is a 3.5!)

Ah, and this is where the series staggers. At least for me, just a little bit. There's some awkwardness between Youta and Tsukina, which was expected. He keeps asking her out, but other knights keep pulling him away before Tsukina can explain that she's engaged. Of course, this is a bit of a blow to his self-esteem, which leads him to take "help" from a somewhat shady person. There are more sweet moments between Tsukina and Ill, and it's as cute as ever. The plot felt slow, until the big scene right at the end, which felt out of place and like a rehash of the second volume. The cliffhanger at the end of this volume makes me very curious about how this series will end because the fifth volume is the final volume. (I show more think?) Also, side note, can I say, I really hate the trope of when someone is already taken, but the person who has a crush on that taken person tells them "I won't give up!" in spite of them being in a loving relationship? Or when they go up to that taken person's significant other and say "I won't lose to you!" all smug? Like...bro...sit down. That's weirdo behavior, no woman alive likes an aggravatingly persistent man who won't take a hint. I know some girls find it charming, like "Ooh he's fighting for ~true love~!" but to me, it just makes that character look like a pest. Sorry, when a character does that, it just really sours my view of the character. show less
