Psychic Academy: Volume 7

Ai is finally fixing to bust a move on Orina as their bodies meet scantily clothed in a love hotel....but then Ai gets an emergency call from Mew, who is locked in a battle with a powerful ADC agent and he drags Orina along to rescue her. Of course this leaves all parties a little unfulfilled. Mew doesn't want to be around Ai because her feelings for him are getting stronger and stronger and she doesn't want to mess up Orina's relationship with him. This all might be settled by the impending arrival of the "para dream", a vision shared by all psychics in which they see themselves on a beach alone. Except Ai DID see someone the last time he had the dream.....Mew! Mew has some recollection of the dream but has not figured out that it was Ai she saw. This time there will be no mistaking. The last volume of Psychic Academy dwelled a little bit too much on the romance angle but Volume 7 shows a return to balance. The art is beautiful and you've come to really care about the characters by this point. Katsu Aki really built up the suspense of who, if anyone, Ai would see in the para dream very well. You also want to see who Ai is going to end up with at the end of the series. There's also lots of fan service beyond the 13+ age recommendation on this book. Great series.
