Summary: While Viz is exceptionally slow at translating manga, I am glad volume 5 has come out in English for all of us to read.
This volume, by the way, features Chris, the Lotis Master partially seen in volume 4, as the cover, and is indeed called "Jealousy".
The title, I think, is aimed towards Mayura Seno, who, in this volume, is being eaten alive by the Mistress of the Maram words, Darva. (Due to contoversy, I'd like to mention Darva is female, at least in the English volume)
Since I don't want to spoil the volume, I'll just skim over it. Kyo & Alice move out, and Mayura (who has been completely possessed at this point) aims to do anything to get Kyo, hurt his family, hurt her family, & manipulate people.
Somewhere in this series Alice & Kyo become more open with their romantic feelings & have to deal with it when Kazuki, Kyo's friend, tramatically hurts Alice.
Kyo learns of the branded "mudoru" curse from Billy, one of two Lotis masters who have come to aid the others. They are the last ones who can help Alice & Kyo.
The volume ends when Alice & co approach the Tokyo Metropolitian Building, ready to face Mayura.
On a lighter note, Alice knows 6 Lotis words, Kyo, 5. There is a bio of Frei & a VERY cute picture of Nyozeka. It's a must buy for all shoujo fans! |
