A review by saluki
Dengeki Daisy, Volume 6 by Kyousuke Motomi

4.0


This really is an unusual shoujo manga. There is *unrequited* love so far and humour, but the plot is getting darker and more graphic with each volume. Daisy (screen name), former cracker, now computer engineering genius has still not confessed his true identity to Teru and there are a few individuals who want to expose him and his hacker incidents. Each volume unravels mysteries and as soon as some questions are answered, other questions are raised. It's also quite emotional, with character depth and growth. And, sinister events are underway that put Teru in a life-threatening predicament. The almost cameo appearance of Akira seems to set an ominous atmosphere for things to come in future volumes.

It's been years since I've had a manga spree so I'm glad I succumbed to reviews of this series and struck lucky. Though one thing I have noticed is there is far more dialogue in these panels than I've been used to in the past. Still all good but the print can get teeny and I suspect I need new reading specs!!
