So…I might just leave the table as is, so I don’t feel bad about the fact I won’t finish the book this week. Should finish next week.

I was also going to read the epilogue in week 11. Together with atogaki and VA comments it’s a sizeable amount.

Cool. I’ll just write notes in advance then, and wait till next week to post.

Week 10 - Ch 4 (part 2/2) thoughts

Yuki’s line about being 見惚れた with Honoka being exceptional for her gun skill was cool

Also the way Honoka supported Yuki :heart_eyes:

Of course Yomi appeared to help save the day (like obviously she’s gonna notice something is up). I like that Yuki was still the one who was victorious in the end.

Glad the battle was short

That was a hella captivating twist with Yuki & Haruka meeting like that!! Most exciting moment in the whole book. Cool decision to make Honoka’s sister the villain this whole time

Also Yomi possibly being dead was a cool moment, and it would have been really interesting if that had actually occurred.

The only thing I don’t get is what Haruka’s endgame is. Like what’s her purpose in all this? What was she achieving by potentially knocking down the 結界? What will actually be in her life after she’s completed this whole operation? I always find myself questioning this with villains… Like if you actually succeed in destroying the world like you’re trying, it seems like things would be pretty boring afterwards…

Btw there is like a 3-4 pg short story after the epilogue. It’s cute, but not missing anything if you skip it.

I just noticed I wrote this on one week’s thread and then copied it for about 4 weeks without noticing :woman_facepalming:

Overall thoughts on the volume: it was good, but I wanted more romance than we got. I’m glad for the way various things were fleshed out, and Yomi & Ui added a lot to the story. I’m really curious to see where the author takes the plot development next volume

Short story had some cute Yuki x Honoka moments

Week 11

Epilogue:

Confused - wasn’t the plan for Ui to go with them anyway? I guess it’s good she’s giving them (and the plot) more direction. Hopefully she won’t interfere with the romantic development too much

It still seems like a poor strategy to have her leave Yomi on her own though

Voice actor thoughts:

Shibata Mei was making fun/weird voices during lol

Aoyama Yoshino talked about respecting Honoka - cool

Tanaka shibori (Yomi) - if I lived in this, I’d probably end up becoming a zombie pretty quickly. Enjoyed playing a cool older character

Tanaka Minami (Ui) - talked about how Ui was おませさん, and unbelievable for her age. Also about how it was fun putting on onee-san airs for a younger character

I’m planning this week as a break but will post shortly to see when we start volume 3.
