Chapter 111 opens a fresh school term for the cast. A visibly more grown Momiji presses Kyo to finally act on his feelings for Tohru, warning that if he keeps stalling, Momiji himself or some other rival may well reach her first.
Standing fourth in the nineteenth volume and one hundred and eleventh overall, the chapter begins as a new term gets underway. Momiji, visibly matured, takes it upon himself to challenge Kyo about the way he has been holding back.
Momiji confronts Kyo directly, urging him to move on his feelings for Tohru before anyone else, Momiji included, has the chance to do so. The push signals a shift in Momiji from the boyish figure of earlier chapters toward a bolder young man.
