I also loved the tension that Chika and Ishigami felt at the end of the election! We need to see more and more of Ishigami. And as the relationship between Kaguya and Miyuki is revealed to the other as important, that 'will they or won't they' tension is rising. which quite surprised me because he introduced a surprise element in this new character that showed she really is worthy of being on the student council.

The tension actually wasn't impacted by knowing the sure end to Kaguya-sama Love Is War vol 7. hahaha what would Kaguya have done if he bungled the election?! This time our new character is refreshingly earnest! She totally weakens Miyuki's heart and that was fun to see. So he can be a bit unaware of when Kaguya is freaking out. Miyuki is actually quite refreshing as he is from a poor family and its his abilities that gives him his position at the school. and different sides of her personality come out when she feels this way and it makes for some great moments to giggle over! She is so genuinely a rich and powerful person's daughter who is used to getting her way. free of the burdens of the student council. AND there is a lot of build up to these chapters and I really enjoyed seeing this side of our couple. I was surprising NOT disappointed in a single moment of this story arc. it was quite different from what I expected! We meet some new students and get a different perspective of the perfect students, Kaguya and Miyuki.They really get a run for their money. In a way Kaguya-sama Love Is War vol 7 was totally predictable as Miyuki goes up for another term as student council president. only Chika, their secretary and Ishigami, their treasurer, seem ready to innocently mess up their careful machinations. and neither wants to be the 'loser!' As both are geniuses and quite proud they spend each day laying in wait for an opportunity to get the other to confess without losing face. Kaguya is the vice president of their prestigious academy’s student council and she's in love with, Miyuki, the president, and he with her! BUT both are well aware that in love there is always a winner.
