With their acquaintance Nico teaching a night school, it’s a chance for Ko and Nazuna to spend time as classmates。 Ko’s unexpected popularity winds up with him getting a girlfriend, while an exploration of Nazuna’s past shows that life’s never as simple as it seems。My unending love for this series remains a bit of a mystery even to me - there’s enough good stuff here, certainly, a lot even, but I always save this for last the week it comes out and I always love it without much reservation。Now, i With their acquaintance Nico teaching a night school, it’s a chance for Ko and Nazuna to spend time as classmates。 Ko’s unexpected popularity winds up with him getting a girlfriend, while an exploration of Nazuna’s past shows that life’s never as simple as it seems。My unending love for this series remains a bit of a mystery even to me - there’s enough good stuff here, certainly, a lot even, but I always save this for last the week it comes out and I always love it without much reservation。Now, it makes things harder than usual this time around。 That girlfriend that Ko lands is a tall, reserved older student who has nothing but princess fantasies on her mind and is pushy and clingy to the extreme。 Mind you, the story is aware of how obnoxious she is, but, ironically, the writing is frequently so good that she is excruciating at points。Outside of her though, this is a total winner。 With the revelation of Nazuna’s past last time, we now have an excuse to explore her backstory even further and it explains a lot of her behaviour both past and present。 She’s maturing at a different rate than anybody expected or, in a way, knows how to deal with。Which explains a lot of her personality, which is a blend of bravado and bluster in equal measure。 Sometimes she is believably chill about adult topics - the way she teases Ko about his girlfriend (and the idiotic position she finds them in later) is both a testament to her immaturity and her comfort levels with Ko。And, even if she and Ko start dating and break up in the span of around four panels (it makes sense, I swear), she still gets incredibly sulky when he turns out to know how to fake his way through school with an incredible amount of aplomb and winds up being super popular。It’s all in service to the back portion of the book, where we learn about Nazuna’s first human friend from many years ago, who even Nazuna has forgotten。 This is a really strong bit of character development for both characters, one who hides at school because home life is intolerable and another who can’t remember anything so has zero concept of how she should behave in school。Kyoko is a study in depression, loneliness, and being basically invisible and she becomes a good friend to Nazuna; one who might want to be a bit more than that。 Kyoko loves mysteries and I think that’s a reflection on the mangaka themselves, as this story is always good at asking interesting questions。When the girls are playing sleuth, they don’t learn very much, but between the flashbacks and their interactions and one very out-of-nowhere moment when Nazuna is in the air, there are so many things being put out for the reader to be interested in for the future。And it doesn’t hurt that the friendship between these two is pretty damn heartwarming, the scene at Kyoko’s home is a wonderful example of this, which makes whatever it will end up becoming even more tragic。 Part of me wondered if Kyoko wound up as the vampire hunter we’ve seen, but that does feel a little obvious for this series (not that it won’t be good if it heads that way)。As pivots away from the core pair of Ko and Nazuna go, this one is pretty stellar。 Kyoto and Nazuna have a similar vibe, but it’s definitely one that’s distinct from the relationship that Ko has with our erstwhile vampire。 Both pairs were close, but they weren’t the same。And as good as Ko is as a character, and I like him a lot, it is often Nazuna who steals these scenes and she’s given a lot to do here。 Watching her awkwardly learning how to act and not quite managing it has always been a strong part of the series and as we’ve gone forward we learn that there’s actually a really good reason why that’s been the case。4。5 stars - minus a little bit for the annoying girl, but, man, the back half of this book is so good that it’s impossible to not just give it my usual。 As somebody who frequently dislikes extended flashbacks, I feel that’s the biggest praise I can layer on it。 。。。more
