Nizaki Nobuko is introduced. She is going to be one of the main
characters starting with this volume. Too bad she cuts her hair. I
liked her with long hair :p
Ai reappears, but she's not quite the same. To commemorate(?) her
return, I picked this image.
Oh, and starting with this volume, Gokuraku Club is featured at the
end of each book. It features postcard messages sent in by fans and
response by the author, sometimes as one of the characters. I think
it goes well with the manga story because many of the things they talk
about are from real-life experiences that relate to the ideas
presented in the manga.
