I wonder if Iwase will stop acting like a b#tch now. If she wasn't so proud and expressed herself better she might've ended up with Takagi back in middle school.

That's a really interresting choice to do an arc. First, they can always bring back that rival later. Second, it will give a freash breath to the serie. And finally, it put the chief editor kinda in a bad position, because even if he wanted to stop their serie becuase he believe that they didn't do well enough to beat Crow and +Natural on that long period, the fan would be mad.

I really liked the scene of when Takagi was in highschool, he didn't care about his highscore while Iwasa was obscessed with beating him. And now, it really contrast when Takagi said that he really didn't want to lose against Iwasa. It show how much he changed.

They should Pair up Iwase and Takagi, i mean Miyoshi is great but Iwase x Takagi is way more better in my opinion.

Anyways, good chapter, it was good to see them coming up with an idea for the manga.

Really nice episode, things are looking good, i could actually feel the tension at the end of the PCP case o/

Still, Iwase's character made a complete reversal from her bitchy self in episode 1. Kinda unrealistic but w/e

It's always better with more screen time for Iwase and Niizuma.

The tsunderes are the best.

Thanks for trying to help.
I'm assuming you're referring to HxH 2011's Mariya Ise as Killua (were that Kanako Mitsuhashi reprised her role!). Akechi does sound a little like him.
So I went and rewatched the episode and according to the credits, Akechi is voiced by Mutsumi Tamura. It looks like she's got a pretty good track record for voicing young boys.
A good author leaves the audience enough material to be satisfied with, yet yearning for more.

Oh I looked her up, I knew the voice was familiar to me, she was young kakashi. So I was just thinking of the wrong young white haired assassin with an affinity for lightning.

Such a great episode and I love this PCP arc that Takagi conceptualized from start to the finish after being inspired when meeting Iwase and properly acknowledging her as someone he respected as well as her being a genuine rival on the same floor as him. I love the utilization of deduction, needing to break down characters in a message and removing syllables to properly understand what the message was intending so that Akechi, the rival character, could outwit PCP.

It's clever, fitting, yet authentic too as it's the perfect level of difficulty I'd say to be interesting as a manga and to be realistic too at the same time. Takagi and Mashiro's really grown as mangaka and their editor, Hattori, can recognize that clearly when he is floored by their suggestions and willing to take the risk with them as they hope for that final chapter to blow up in the rankings.

damn, shuujin just showing how he just made his own genre that only him can make, the way he made the end of the arc is just amazing, can hardly think that exciting ending won't beat iwase.
don't like much though how takagi plays again with women heart and telling iwase he "would" like her, not only he's married now, he's playing again with iwase heart. next thing you know she'll make a way to their divorce LOL.

too much concentrated episode on ashirogi muto, it was great and all, but felt that the variety of characters we had 'till now could bring little more colour to the episode.

It seems like PCP had a pretty strong arc. The way Takagi chose to end it was pretty interesting; so hopefully that'll be enough to keep them from being cancelled. But, whose to say at this point? The editor-in-chief has been throwing curve balls the last few times he's been on screen. For all I know he could cancel PCP next episode just cause.

Other than that: Takagi is taking a big risk being nice to Iwase. He will be pretty lucky if his conversation and handshake with her didn't reignite her obsessive love for him. When it comes to her, a drip becomes a current with the slightest twist.
