^ I understand what you're saying about breaking Kyoko's image of Kuon.

I was just wondering not why he didn't tell her at that moment but why he has not even contemplated.



I guess Ren is a very conflicted character not only about his past. But even when he thought of seeing Kyoko as someone other than a colleague he worried about age.



Sometimes I feel I have to re-read the entire manga to get into Ren's thoughts, he switches completely! From being an incompetent actor, to feeling jealous/angry, to being torn by his past.



I'm really really curious on how Kyoko is giong to play a part in changing "Ren" the workaholic and "Kuon" the tormented character from her past.

Sometimes I wanna read thw whole manga again as well! 'cuz Ren character is really, as you say, conflicted (this is my opinion, anyway XD) and sometimes things from his past that I've needed to remember just pop-up and I like :"What the heck?"...

I always get the feeling the kyouko isn't really into the character of setsu. Maybe it's 'cuz the manga-ka chose to show what she's thinking, while she thought on :"how should I react?!" and so, I mean when she was acting koun (the son of Ren's father...) I didn't saw what she was thinking about and it looked so real, she was really into the character, but now as Setsu she's not that good...

Also, in the end of the chapter she've called Ren Tsuruga-san, so I didn't really get it, maybe she let her guord down but I think it's more 'cuz she saw something wrong and chosen to call him in his real name, not as Setsu but as Kyoko.

I think it'll get intresting more and more now. I actually have a hunch that when Kyoko called to Ren Tsuruga-sun someone have been there (not thedirector) and heared, I mean, it can be really ntresting that way, even though there's actually not many chances this'll happen 'cuz it'll be hard to continue with.

I think that if Kyoko will find out about Koun soon it'll be by herself or by the manager of the agency  (forgot it's name XD).

I anticipate as well to the time she'll find out, and to see how she'll mix the Ren she knows to the other Koun, and if she'll stop belive in fairys (lol XD) and if she'll be dissapointed the there's no magic. I also want to see her reaction when she'll find out.

BTW, we didn't see Sho for awhile now, right? I'm curious when he'll pop-up again (if he will soon), at which point..

I just read the summary from here before full scanlations are out.



Ending with seeing Ren outside the room when Kyoko coming back...  Ren was in sad expression.  He does worry about her.

On Mangareader , it's a full chapter ..

but when you're on page one it shows you that it's 28 pages ..

and on page too the number decreases to 15 pages!

so I returned to page 1 and went to page 16 from there .. :\\



That was a good chapter .. but I really miss the old gentle Ren .. <3

I think mechgouki released half chapter without notice on their blog and i guess it's because it turned into speed scanlation race with other groups.

oh man.. when will the next part be ouT? I can't wait for it. DX

owwww it´sso exciting, i really liked all the posts here on possible continuations of this chapter so i´m gonna post my worst nightmare continuation and the one id like to see most  : )



haha well my first thought was really pessimistic lol, figuring ren is a character that even when he's lost with himself snaps out of it immediately if it would worry kyoko so the question is how far has he reached his limit, i think it can only go 2 ways, either the moment he realizes kyoko is worried he fakes it by calling her setsu ( which would immediately confuse kyoko to wondering if maybe she was thinking wrong) and plays out part of his troubled emotions as cain to get it of his chest and to assure kyoko that he was acting it, like getting angry about her leaving the hotel at night or something ( since he can cover it easily cause he gave cain a sister complex, which i dont believe cain should have but he made it to be able togive the affection he really wants to give kyoko as ren)



or he really really will snap and whatever he will do i'm so looking forward to seeing kyoko's not understanding and complete confused state lol,

personally i think he will hug her, just walks towards the elevator where kyoko is standing not saying anything and just holds her tight unable to say a word, shaking.



and i remember the boss saying to kyoko to call if anything happened whatever it is so i have a feeling he might get involved cause i doubt ren will speak since it really is something i think he's scared of losing kyoko if she'd find out, and even if not, how the hell do you explain this to someone lol : )



oww one more thing, i dont remember who posted it, about kyoko's thoughts as playing setsu and finding it kyoko isn't one with setsu like when she played kuon, i think it is because ren isn't really playing cain towards setsu, he keeps teasing her alot like; i have a feeling that cain bought all those tops after being forced to return 7 jeans because he'd really like to see how they look on kyoko, and he even plotted it so that she couldn't refuse, because kyoko thinks ren's acting is always perfect, therefore she will doubt herself if something un-cainlike happeneds (i mean i have the feeling she feels like she keeps getting the interpretation  of cain's character wrong because in her mind ren's acting is flawless so the problem must lie with her and that's  where kyoko's thoughts come in ), i think thats why she thinks so much because ren is messing with cains character to still play his own pranks on her while at the same time having kuon taking over some parts

^ I understand what you're saying about breaking Kyoko's image of Kuon.

thank God.

I thought that it was short, with Ren returning to being Koun  a really good progress in the plot...
