This one was okay. Basically the story is about Fukumaru wanting alone time with his daddy and a break from all the kitties. Still adorable and love the graphics.

The outlandish fun continues. 🤪
Highlights for me in this volume include:
Cat chase while errand running- the ending! 😍
Volleyball rematch calling on the power of princess and wife 😉
Bonus story where Miku critiques her own dream's internal logic/premise for a magical girl transformation story 😆
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“The Apothecary Diaries: Volume 1” wasn‘t what I was expecting, but I think that it‘s interesting enough that I‘ll end up picking up the next book!
The over-the-top ridiculousness continues, to my great joy.
Highlights this volume for me include:
-Reconciling the characters battling in a performance for children with a tea ceremony of Tatsu's making, who are swayed from their planned performance out of sheer terror of Tatsu
-the retired mob boss who's a big softie for dogs
-the former mob boss's wife, now diligent grocery store employee, playing peekaboo with a kitten
🥰
Yes, that is a retired mob boss losing it over how cute his dog looks in its new sweater in the top panel, and kicking his feet up in the impromptu photoshoot in the bottom left panel. 😍
The wacky shenanigans with the history/threat but not the reality of violence, more absurd parody of it, continues.
The highlight for me this volume were the chapters focusing on the sweetest father-in-law ever.
The dessert competition with social media engagement stakes is runner up.
I'm noticing some traditional gender norm judgements on display, but its limited to antagonists spouting such nonsense, and unorthodox-ly contested by our 1/?
Tatsu, the original cornball.🥰
Such an adorable screwball time! An even more appealing mix of endearing effort on the part of a male family figure with an ultra-violent past that somehow winds up in slapstick situations with uncanny facial expressions than Spy x Family. [If there are any more manga in this vein, please tell me! ]
I will definitely be continuing in the series.
Lookit! Gangster with the warm gloves! 🥹
This one was okay, not as good as Vol. 10. Less kitties and more adults, blah. The pianist goes to visit his father-in-law and thinks a lot about how he met his wife when he was a kid. Hopefully more kitties in the next volume!!
