manga: Kekkaishi Vol 16

I hated the arc with the predatory girl after Yoshimori. I do not read good shounen to have it invaded by bad shoujo. There’s plenty of time for Tokine to figure out that Yoshimori is growing up, and she can just do it without the help of obsessive girls who fall for and stalk anything that’s male and moving. At least I have my guard up for that when I’m reading shoujo.

I was hoping Tokine would find her way around the doorway guy’s place, but I guess they had to save him for the council. I really like Misao (who looks like a younger Rue) and hope she doesn’t just disappear. She was especially cute with Masamori. I thought the dragon arc was a hoot. Tokine may think Mama Sumimura is a lot like Yoshimori, but I think Masamori is the one who takes after her, based on this. It must be painful to be Yoshimori and have those two for relatives.

I’m curious to see what happens with the gates, but a bit concerned with how Masamori seems to be acting different.

Maybe she loves him because he's nice and normal and doesn't mind that she's a hereditary mmystic warrior who takes off for years at a time?

I don't think it skipped so much as Yoshimori suppressed it in a fit of pique, and the little one is still little.
