Another volume, another character who thinks screaming at girls and putting them down is an acceptable means of showing them that they like them. The new character, Hiro, is awful. He's the most irritating character of this manga so far, and that's a real achievement considering some of the rest of them. I loathe him. I loathe him so much that, singlehandedly, he drags this volume's rating down to one star even though without him, it might have gone so high as three. I actually liked the backstory of Tohru and her two friends more than anything else I've seen in this series so far, but Hiro ruined everything. I don't even care that this nasty little brat has got some supposed "reason" for behaving the way that he does. I don't care that he even feels intermittently bad about it. And when he thinks "I hate being a useless kid so much that I wish I could die" all I can think is GOOD, DIE THEN.

Words cannot adequately express how much I dislike that brat.
