Not one of these boys is wearing a suit that fits him properly.

The ties are the best ^_^

I love Kiyoharu and his 'everybody just chill' and also his face. He makes great faces.

We get a lot more depth on him in these last volumes: his Go-hating parents (kind of the opposite of Kaga's), his lack of experience despite his ability. Up until the weekend they spend at Touya's he's an outsider, an opponent. Now we get to know him. He's also introduced as a maverick, a rebel, but next to one of Touya and Shindou's fights he's really Mr Ordinary and his reactions are priceless.

The ties are amazing. I bet they would be even more, ah, stunning in color (especially Akira's).

And yeah, Kiyoharu really is the most 'normal' of the group. That plus his hair + 'rebel' framing = in a more traditional shonen manga he'd totally be the main character.
