It's done. Thank you for staying with me as I plodded/rushed through these summaries. I highly enjoyed writing them and am sad that there aren't any more left to write.

Pertaining to the pace I plan to post these summaries at - I wanted to keep pace with the anime, but since they seem to be going with an anime original plot starting at episode 5, I don't know how that's going to work anymore. Episode 5 seems to contain some events from volume 4, which is why I'm posting it now. But who knows how far they'll stray ( Read more... )

Copy/paste from DW:
