Prince Freya, Vol. 5 by Keiko Ishihara
1.0
adventurous lighthearted fast-paced

 "Confronting major challenges fills me with fear, so I send a message… that I am the greater threat!"

Again, the death of this series is its pacing and scene transitions. It opens with the new character introduced last volume. Fine. Freya and the gang are on the same ship as him. Also, fine. Freya’s not dressed as the prince. Well, okay. But suddenly they’re escorting a ship of enslaved children??? Where did this come from? The last volume they were on a trip to find some jewels. Then, it went a whole another direction with the queen who handpicked handsome men. What happened to the kids? They just threw that plot away.

With how slapstick and lighthearted the story can be, the gruesome violent or sexual moments can be jarring. Why were there the makings of a threesome in a shoujo manga??? That was majorly uncomfortable. ._.

I wanted to see Aleksi finally confess his feelings, but I think I'm done.
