I laughed so hard and so many times throughout this volume。 I absolutely adore it。 I don't want to spoil anything， so I will just say: this volume was the perfect balance of comedy， heart， and plot。 I laughed so hard and so many times throughout this volume。 I absolutely adore it。 I don't want to spoil anything， so I will just say: this volume was the perfect balance of comedy， heart， and plot。 。。。more

Kaiju Girl Caramelise is the worst manga ever！ I want there to be more of it but there never is！ All joking aside。。。。So we've come to volume 4 of this manga about a teen kaiju's search for love。 To recap; our story follows Kuroe Akaishi， an ordinary girl who turns into a Godzilla-esque beast whenever she experiences affection。 In addition to giving her a body complex， this has also complicated her budding relationship with school heart throb Arata Minami。The biggest complaint I can level at this Kaiju Girl Caramelise is the worst manga ever！ I want there to be more of it but there never is！ All joking aside。。。。So we've come to volume 4 of this manga about a teen kaiju's search for love。 To recap; our story follows Kuroe Akaishi， an ordinary girl who turns into a Godzilla-esque beast whenever she experiences affection。 In addition to giving her a body complex， this has also complicated her budding relationship with school heart throb Arata Minami。The biggest complaint I can level at this volume-aside from how frustratingly quickly it flew by- is that it largely ignores the issues of body positivity and self-image that have been so prevalent in the series。 This isn't the first volume to take that detour， but having this oddball universe anchored by a real issue always made it that much more believable。 In its stead， volume 4 focuses on story progression， and despite lacking that sense of grounding， things proceed very well。 After barely having a role in volume 3， Best Girl Manatsu is not only back in full force， but she even gets two entire chapters dedicated to her。 I was never truly bothered by how one-note Manatsu was in the past， because of how hilarious she is。 Even so， this little duology gave her character the depth that I didn't realize she was missing， and attaches some meaning to her infatuation with Kuroe's Harugon form。The rest of our cast have their own hurdles to jump through。 Minami is busy dealing with the fallout from something spoilery that happened in the last volume。 The guy's still just so darn likeable。 He goes about everything with such an earnest demeanor， even though you get the sense that he's bitten off more than he can chew。 Kuroe， meanwhile， deals with the strain this newfound status quo has put on their relationship， in addition to her ongoing struggles with kaiju puberty-such as her newfound tendency to vomit heat rays whenever she feels jealousy。 Underneath all the hilarious kaiju antics， though， she's still the same vulnerable girl we know and love。 Of particular note in this volume are a few moments where she listens to others feelings about her monstrous alter-ego。 It's important， I think， for her to hear， and it suggests that love isn't too much for her to hope for after all。 The final chapter also introduces a new wrinkle in Kuroe's tumultuous life that may have serious repercussions for volume 5。The other characters don't do much。 Kuroe's mother disappears on a quest that will likely pay off down the road。 （This volume finally gives us some clues about Kuroe's origins。） Rairi's role， meanwhile， amounts to little more than a brief （but very funny） King Kong shout-out。Do I even need to mention the art？ I've been singing praises for Spica Aoki's talent in every one of these reviews。 Every panel perfectly encapsulates the energy of the moment。 I also appreciate how they get to flex-their monster-drawing muscles a bit more this time around。Volume 4 continues this series' hot-streak。 I cannot get volume 5 in my hands soon enough， though it looks like I have quite a wait ahead of me。 Though this outing focuses less on relevant issues， this bizarre world of kaiju and love struck teenagers continues to be thoroughly engaging。 I only wish that it could manage its' world-building and grounded themes at the same time， rather than giving us one or the other。 。。。more

After a very public display of affection between man and monster， Kuroe’s relationship with Minami seems to be doing well， except he’s become the celebrity du jour and he doesn’t realize that Kuroe gave him that kiss。 With a LOT to swallow this volume， are Kuroe’s chances Harugoing， Harugoing， Harugon？Ahem。I often want to like this book more than I do， although there’s some really good stuff in this volume， and， as often happens when I take the time to give it a good think， I finally figured out After a very public display of affection between man and monster， Kuroe’s relationship with Minami seems to be doing well， except he’s become the celebrity du jour and he doesn’t realize that Kuroe gave him that kiss。 With a LOT to swallow this volume， are Kuroe’s chances Harugoing， Harugoing， Harugon？Ahem。I often want to like this book more than I do， although there’s some really good stuff in this volume， and， as often happens when I take the time to give it a good think， I finally figured out why - Minami is too boring。You could reasonably argue that the rather crazy permutations of Kuroe’s affliction warrant a grounded love interest， but there’s a far cry between grounded and a stick in the mud。 He becomes very popular and she gets jealous and I can’t figure why because he’s just so， so dull。Kuroe herself is on fire， sometimes literally， this time out。 She’s almost better than the book deserves at points。 When she swallows her insecurities and they manifest as a physical change， it might be a little on the nose， but it’s still hilarious。The best moment in the book definitely comes when a misunderstood offer for cuddling has Kuroe ready to throw caution to the wind as she offers up a heartfelt apology to all of Tokyo because it’s about to be completely destroyed so she can snuggle a boy。Teenagers。Manatsu， Kuroe’s friend who has a crush on Kuroe’s more monstrous form， gets more page time this volume and I wasn’t altogether upset by it， which is funny because she’s not really my favourite character。 She’s also bringing a lot of references to old kaiju movies that I don’t necessarily get， so I allow that I may be missing her best bits。I think they figured out a great way of using her， however， as she keeps appearing in increasingly more ridiculous costumes throughout the book。 Her odd definition of affection aside， she’s very excited that Harugon might “pop her like a grape” （which bodes poorly for their prospects as an ongoing couple）， she’s also helpfully moving the background plot along by her actions。This also gets into some very good-natured fan service （plus a rather funny heel turn when Kuroe doesn’t play ball with a reason that makes perfect sense）。 It’s all leagues better than Minami being an idiot and falling for super obvious traps， although the misunderstanding over the size of a hat is pretty fun， but tethered to a character I am very poised to dislike and one I regretfully feel may show up again。3 stars; not without its high points， but not without its flaws either。 There’s a sudden potential rival arrival that probably won’t go anywhere， if it even IS that， but I am hoping it will because Kuroe can do better， even if her self-esteem would believe otherwise。 。。。more

This series continues to be a delight with every volume released。 After the incident at the music festival， Kuroe finds her boyfriend is the center of unwanted attention and it puts a strain on their relationship but in a way that is entertaining to watch。 The pair are adorable together and hopefully， they will be able to overcome whatever life throws at them。
