Nisekoi: False Love, Volume 17: Mistress is another collection of amusing stories, like the first 16 volumes. Raku and his crush spend the night together at Kosaki's aunt's spa. The head of the Char Sui Syndicate, Yui, is in love with Raku, like before, but now her mentor, Night, connives to get them to get married. Night breaks down the wall separating their room and replaces all of Yui's underwear with fancy, lace panties. Then Raku and his fake girlfriend, Chitoge, surreptitiously spend the night together because Chitoge is afraid of the storm. And there's more.
I've been reading more manga recently, so it's no surprise that I read Nisekoi 17 the day it came out in English. There are no overarching stories, just situations. Raku and Chitoge's eponymous false relationship doesn't grow; it doesn't change. They don't change. Nothing really changes, including the fact that I've been reading three or four tankoban volumes of Nisekoi a year for some time. The volumes are usually $4.49 when they come out, so it's not like I'm spending even $20 a year on this title. It's just good, plain, mindless fun.
