Real Bout High School #2

Rating:
Summary: Real Bout rocks!
Review: I LOVE Real Bout High School. It's fun, sweet, tough, silly, stupid, and cool all at once. The characters are awesome, and could give Ranma Saotome or even Kenshin a run for their money. Ryoko Mitsurugi is beautiful, arrogant, powerful, an accomplished sword master, and thinks of herself as a modern day samurai. Her rival Azumi Kiribiyashi is gorgeous, conceited, strong, a naginata master, and a devious witch. Together they fight for the affections of the kendo captain, who remains oblivious to their interest, even when it is applied with a sledgehammer (which it usually is).

While all this is going on, Ryoko is stalked by a boy obsessed with her and her adventures. He records every K-fight she has and takes pictures of her to sell to classmates. And Shizuma continues to taunt her and challenge her.

Another wonderful installment in a gem of a series.

Summary: getting better
Review: I wasn't sure how I felt about this series after reading the first volume, but in this volume it seems to be getting better. In this volume, Shizuma participates in a K-Fight with a teacher, and Ryoko and Tatsuya are in a play together. This volume gives readers a little more insight into Ryoko, although Tatsuya seems to become more mysterious. I'm still not sure how much more in going on in Shizuma's mind, other than his next fight, but I like him anyway. Daisaku, Ryoko's biggest fan, is around for a bit, being cute and more than a bit stalker-like. I'm still not sure if I would recommend this series, but at least is seems to be getting better. I'm looking forward to the next volume.

Summary: Azumi another fighter!!
Review: in this vol. they start a k-fight where all the samuri's og to fight, and of course the first is shizuma, he is honestly funny,but thne gets into a fight with a teacher which really lights the fire, and of course a new contestant eneters the fight, she keeps that smile on her face and never takes it off, that is azumi, while her fighting with shizuma she spots ryokos crush and hugs him and thati s what makes ryoko realll y fierce by saying"that gate crashing little harlot" really funny, and that is when her and azumi fight both are quick at speed and movement, but in the end ryoko wins the match and azumi'ds smile is wiped off her face, then we find out later that her crush is leaving and that is what makes ryoko really go down the hill.....
