Chapter 31: Yoru is too cuuute.

What's with that little boy...

The Embryo appeared, seems like it might be Amu's? Or Amu and Tadase's combined.

Chapter 32: Or maybe it's that little boy's.



These poor precious beans never stood a chance. 😩

I totally get why Tadase came to hate Ikuto now. He left one day and then when he came back, Tadase's dog died, the grandma collapsed and Ikuto stole Tadase's key and left yet again.

It's clear to use he left because the mom really didn't want him there, and perhaps he found out more about his father and that's why he took the key which originally his father's. The dog and grandma were coincidences, they were both old.

Chapter 33: When Ikuto left as a child, he was staying with the First King Tsukasa. Who drew the art for Tsukasa's book?

Chapter 34: Nagihiko was told to act like a girl even though he loves basketball, he was only able to play on the street in secret. His second shugo chara hatched and it's name is Rhythm. Temari came back too!

Chapter 35-38: Amu puts the key in the lock and sees Ikuto's memories.

I don't really understand Amu's feelings of not being able to 'be strong or fight like a boy and therefore she can't be a hero'. Also about guys fighting for pride, girls can be just as prideful, heck even worse because society teaches them that looks are so important and they have to fight for their place.

New transformations for Ikuto and Amu. :O

Chapter 39-40: Um WTF why is Gozen, Easter's boss, that little boy Amu met who I thought the embryo might belong to?!

Chapter 41: Amu uses talk to no jutsu and with the help of the 'embryo' he gets his feelings back.

Chapter 42: I don't get why they decided that wasn't the embryo.



So cute.

Stepfather got off too easy but at least he's doing the right things to make up for it. What was the paper the mom showed him??

Ikuto's texts to Amu 😆 He's texting Tadase too.

Ikuto is leaving...? But I know he's in the sequel.

Though she still has feelings for Tadase, she developed feelings for Ikuto as well in the end.

Chapter 43: Ikuto is leaving to find his father which makes total sense, but Amu is so upset she tells Ikuto to never come back. D:

So Ikuto's mother's secret was that she never turned in the marriage registration, so technically she was never married to the 'stepfather'.

The grandma tells the story of what happened to her and Betty. Nice closer for Tadase. 

Ikuto confesses and kisses Amu! On the cheek. XD

Chapter 44: Graduation prep. Miki, Suu and Ran disappeared leaving only Dia!
