Skip Beat Chapter 203

In this chapter, Kyoko comes to terms with her feelings for Ren and ultimately decides that she will continue to love him from afar, and keep her feelings for him to herself. I guess it's a good thing that Kyoko has finally acknowledged her romantic interest in Ren and her solution to the situation was a easy and obvious choice. The drama and angst seems to never end between these two. I hope that the both of them will have a bright future together and that we can finally reach a breaking point in this manga regarding their relationship.

Skip Beat Chapter 202

In this chapter, the president of LME(Lori) confronts Kyoko about her blossoming feelings for Ren, and he gets all philosophical on her. Kyoko breaks down into tears because she doesn't want to become a fool in love again, and in the end Lori presents her with a choice regarding her feelings for Ren. I know that the road hasn't been exactly smooth sailing for this romance between Ren and Kyoko, but then again nothing in life ever is. I really hope that we'll reach a resolution real soon regarding this because this manga has really dragged this aspect out and for long enough.

Skip Beat Chapter 201

Basically, Kyoko just spent this entire chapter freaking out whether or not Lory would let the cat out of the bag about how she's in love with Ren. The mangeka is really dragging this manga out that it's becoming ridiculous. I mean, at the rate that this manga is going Kyoko won't kiss Ren until the 300th chapter. All of this time has passed and barely anything major has happened. I can only hope that something extremely eventful will happen in the upcoming chapters.

Skip Beat Chapter 200

Skip Beat has finally reached it's 200th chapter!! Yoshihi Nakamura was building up to this chapter and to tell you the truth I was somewhat disappointed by the contents within this chapter. I mean on the bright side at least Kyoko is openly admitting her feelings for Ren to the reader and it's a start, but it seems that once Kyoko takes a step forward she just ends up taking two steps back and it can be really frustrating. At this point, Ren and Kyoko are just beating around the bush with their feelings for each other and I'm just sitting here yelling at my screen for them to get together already! The wait and long drawn out development is agonizing.

Skip Beat Chap. 198+199 Thoughts

I think that Yoshiki Nakamura is building up to something big for the 200th chapter and these two chapters are leading up to that big event. Kyoko has finally admitted that she's in love with Ren, but as you all know she is scared to fall in love again due to her traumatizing experience with love when she was so in love with Sho. Kyoko at this point needs to wake up and smell the roses and try again at love. She needs to overcome her fear and not let a man that she was so blindly in love with spoil her other chances with men. She can't let that one bad event in her life continue to haunt her and control her for the rest of her life. She needs to give love a chance again, and see that it can turn out differently if she would just suck it up and be more upfront and honest with people about how she really feels about them.

Skip Beat Chapter 197

I was smiling throughout this entire chapter as I was reading it. Also, it seems that Ren is melting Kyoko's shackled heart and their relationship is slowly but surely moving into something more intimate. All I can say is FINALLY!!!!! If you've been reading this manga for as long as I have you know that this event is a huge milestone. The story as of now is really picking up and I'm interested to see what happens next.
