It's great to see Esther successful academically, as well as being able to let bygones be bygones. Having said that, I hope it won't devolve into an episode of Invasion of the Body-Snatchers...

And Ed. Please, please change your clothes.

A fantastic issue that focused more on Esther <3

Gothic-Kinsley-Amis-Chic! I mean, it's so hard to hate Emilia! Especially after that party save. Though Daisy is right, Ed, you HAVE to ditch that Anakin braid!

I feel like Esther's charecter has grown a little now that she's focusing on her education - despite the fact that she may have some poor motives. Not everything need be a competition Esther.. but props to her for moving past her jealousy and reconciling with Emilia. I'm still frothing over Ed and Daisy and loved seeing more of the two of them together. I'm in love with the both if them HARD.

"But I want someone...better than me. Who makes me try harder."

This issue felt more like a cautionary tale rather than a comedy: don't follow the sheep, don't go to parties with creepy instructors, don't underestimate your best friend's ex's girlfriend. Kinda just meh.

I wasn't into the whole Esther trying to show everybody up and focusing on being better than one person in particular. Daisy, Susan, and Ed were all adorable though.

I’ve got...a bad feeling about this writer now.

*Spoilers*

OH Esther. I felt like this one was a little short and couldve expanded more. As curious as I was about Mcgraw's girlfriend. I'm more curious about the whole situation with Susan and Mcgraw because things seemed to amiss with that. Susan seemed way to calm about her in this issue which raises so many red flags, even Esther is pointing out to her how this was out of character. The sidestory with Ed and Daisy was cute and had a good narrative. While Daisy is right that Ed just constantly holding out for Miss Right is kind of a wasted endeavor, Ed is also right in saying that he has every right to not be interested in someone and not call them back. (But he couldve at least given the girl some closure. Bad Ed!)

Esther es muy graciosa, Emilia es muy buena persona por ayudar y salvar a Esther. Deben meter preso al profesor.

Ed espero que le de una oportunidad a la chica que conoció, podría ser interesante ver cómo se relacionan ya que tienen gustos similares, aunque pienso que aún está enamorado de Esther pero hay que ver qué sucede.

Es extraño que Susan tenga ese comportamiento hacia Emilia, tal vez terminen siendo amigas o Susan puede volver con McGraw, aún no lo se, esperemos dos números más y veamos que sucede.

En conclusión, diría que este número me gustó.

I understand Esther's hatred at a personal level.

[Britt ⋆.˚ ☾⭒.˚ · Rating 5 out of 5]

Esther is always my favorite, so I liked having an issue focused on her. And Romantic poetry! And 1950s academic goth fashion!

I don't care if Emilia assimilates Esther if she saved her from that assaulter Ken Lord.

So much goodness!

[Piper · Rating 4 out of 5]

Esther: "Ken...has a sausage for me."
Emilia: "Oh Esther the Chinese do say drunkenness is a form of wisdom."

Esther is still my fav!

Emilia isn't going to come along and dazzle every one while Susan gets to be left alone, this isn't okay.
Also I kinda liked the new look on Ed, sorry.

3.5/5

[Meg · Rating 5 out of 5]

Still one of my all time favorite comic series!

I've had people be jealous of me. It wasn't nice. This was closer to home. Most of Giant Days is. Also, loved Ed's new getup.
