Why is Mika being warned not to look at him? What is happening to poor Hana?All is explained and I love how this book juggles traditional teenager goofing around with its more horrific elements - the scene where Mika is trying to hide in the bathroom and is menaced by a spirit is actually pretty amusing and has a fun capper。And amidst all this, Mika is being forced to accept that she can’t simply ignore the creatures she’s seen and continues to see。 Between the threat to Hana and the things only Yuri can perceive, she’s realizing that ‘ignorance is bliss’ only goes so far。 When she stands up for herself, finally, it’s great stuff。 Especially during the needlessly convoluted and hilarious donut quest the girls go on (everybody is amazing in this whole side story, it’s great)。Of course, Mika doesn’t have any actual powers and her bold new stance also costs her some of the supernatural protection that she had earned in the last volume。 I’m very interested to see what’s going to happen with that next volume - one of the threats just comes right out of nowhere and illustrates the danger Mika’s in during a very creepy sequence。There’s so much worth talking about。 Yuri gets the short shrift, sadly, although the panel of her head being mashed by Hana’s breasts is depressingly funny。 She does show what she brings to the table in between her tsundere moments and is critical in forcing Mika to acknowledge what’s going on and getting her to take action against it。Hana and Mika are both fun and they’re such great friends to watch palling around。 Hana has always been a food monster, but the extremes it goes to in this volume would put a hobbit to shame。 The three of them form a great dynamic together。I’m avoiding the main storyline because it’s very good and has a couple of twists and one seriously messed up relationship that deserve to be experienced fresh, in my opinion。 The first twist might be a little easy to guess, but the one that caps off the story and the volume is a little bit of ‘just right’ to finish the tale。5 stars, adjust down if implied animal cruelty is not your thing。 I said last volume I wouldn’t be rating these books higher until I was sure the series was still improving。 So apparently that was the cue for it to blow my expectations away。 It’s probably closer to 4 or 4。5, but I could never rate anything that makes me tear up and tells such a good, twisty story any less。 。。。more

This volume felt like a huge step up from the previous two。 I have enjoyed the horror art in all three volumes thus far but this one really deepened the story and the darkness of the themes。 I am very excited now for the next installment。

So goodSlice of life coupled with supernatural horror hits the spot! We get to learn a little bit more about how things work with Hana and her “ability” to attract all these creatures, and we learn some eye opening things about some of the other characters。 Looking forward to future volumes。 Hopefully we get to learn more about the things Miko sees (and why she sees them)。

Following the story of the school's mysterious new teacher, Zen。(view spoiler)[I like the mini background about the sensei, it's a refreshing touch focusing on a new character。 This was an improvement, the moment the story strayed away from Julia, I'm hoping her and Miko's relationship would build up faster。 (hide spoiler)] Following the story of the school's mysterious new teacher, Zen。(view spoiler)[I like the mini background about the sensei, it's a refreshing touch focusing on a new character。 This was an improvement, the moment the story strayed away from Julia, I'm hoping her and Miko's relationship would build up faster。 (hide spoiler)] 。。。more
