Another solid volume.

I think this series provides a interesting plotline. I think the characters are doing things I won't expect, which keeps me interested. I like how the main character isn't a good guy, not really. His mind is on one thing, revenge. But you get a bit more past in this, learning how he dealt with the passing of his brother and family.

I also do enjoy the actual plot. But the side cast needs to do more to impress me. The way the plot is sometimes clunky, telling instead of showing. I think the major difference between this and Erased was Erased had excellent characters, and this just has a interesting main lead but not much else.

Still intrigued where we will go though. A 3 out of 5.

Pretty low-key for what is ostensibly a murder mystery thriller. The big revelation this time was totally telegraphed in the first volume, but at least they aren't going to drag it out and can move on to the next stage. I might have went two stars if not for the introduction of an intriguing Yakuza thug. I hope he plays a large part in future volumes.

Franchement dans mon top 3 de manga ! INCROYABLE c'est pas le seinen du genre dark fantasy, surnaturelle ou avec de la violence à toute les pages, c'est intelligent, émouvant, c'est réaliste bref... C'est fou ! Je recommande à 1000% j'ai qu'une seule hâte : lire la suite !

*Maybe a 2.5*
I'm still super confused and not a huge fan of the way the story is moving, but I'm also kind of intrigued? Idk I'm not sure if I'll keep going with this one.

Wooooow ! Ce deuxième tome est d’enfer ! J’avais adoré le premier, j’aime tout autant cette suite. Je me demande tellement ce que la suite peut nous réserve. Le principe de cette histoire est juste fou et prenant !

Senri cherche le tueur de son frère. Seul indice : une marque sur le bras. Depuis qu’il a vu des informations à la télévision sur une entreprise, avec en fond, la vision du bras d’un homme comportant la même cicatrice, Senri devient fou.

En effet, c’est la première piste qu’il a depuis longtemps sur l’agresseur de son frère jumeau. Pourtant, Senri va s’attirer beaucoup d’ennuis. Des soucis liés à tout ce qu’il a pu faire pour attendre l’objectif de tuer cet homme. Ses actes ont des conséquences.

De ce fait, l’histoire est vraiment prenante. On découvre petit à petit des indices semer par-ci, par-là, par le mangaka. L’histoire en reste du coup très intrigante et captivante.

De plus, la fin de ce deuxième tome est inattendue. J’ai hurlé un « naaaaaan » dans tout l’appartement, tellement je fus surprise !

En bref, c’est un manga vraiment de plus en plus prenant. L’histoire se met en place et l’intrigue qui va avec. Personnellement, je suis de plus en plus attaché à Senri et son histoire. J’ai envie qu’il retrouve le responsable, j’ai envie d’enquêter avec lui et de trouver où cet homme pourrait bien se cacher. Un manga vraiment très intéressant.

Rating: 3.5 (rounded down). Second volume of the manga series ✒. Yet another great manga print: hardcover, high quality paper, ink. But also this second time it didn't let me enjoy it much. Characters feel fake, I don't like almost anyone, too much violence, some criminal stuff... But, I am still eager to know what had happened with the main character's family. I have a strong hope for a plot twist, but somehow it worries me that I hope too much. Also, if I didn't read the first volume I wouldn't miss anything, that was quite annoying!

As a nice last word towards this manga, here is my favourite quote: "I want to become the kind of person ...my young self would want standing by her side".

This series is already getting really interesting. I'm really wondering how it will turn out. The only thing I really hope for is that Senri starts to open up emotionally, even if he just has a break down. He's really locked up right now and it's hard to connect with how he's really feeling. Flashbacks are great, but a good breakdown would really "break down" that barrier of fully understanding how he feels.

[Angela · Rating 4 out of 5]

This volume draws you in even more than the first did. The first volume expertly gives a back story while this one helps you get to know the characters more and see the extent they go to in order to get what they want.

[MargReadsManga · Rating 3 out of 5]

I don’t think I’ll be picking up any more of this series. It’s pretty boring and I’m not really attached to any of the characters. The only interesting parts are the flashbacks of Senri’s memories with his brother. Nothing is really compelling me to pick up another volume.

[Noor · Rating 3 out of 5]

OK ! Je vois.
Bon c'est pas encore fou fou, on est toujours à l'introduction de l'histoire, mais c'est une bonne introduction ! Puis la fin du tome donne vraiment envie de prendre la suite.
J'ai hâte de lire l'évolution de Senri et de voir comment cette révélation va le changer.

➺ 4/5 🌟

I should have expected the reveal at the last part, but I still feel thrilled when the shared vision came back. But that only added more questions to the mystery and I'm excited to find out!

[Flavescente · Rating 3 out of 5]

Un poil dubitative sur le fact que le frangin soit vivant, ou plutôt la crédibilité du fact. S'ils partagent la douleur, + de 10 ans sans que le gars ne se soit au moins cogné le petit orteil ça me semble irréel. Ça m'a un poil sortie de l'histoire. En espérant que ce soit adressé plus tard.

[Tabrizia · Rating 4 out of 5]

It can't just leave it there! Just as thrilling and captivating as the first volume. Cannot wait to read the next one! And the artwork? Really captured the darkness and sadness of the story.

Recensione in arrivo...

[Laura · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was great sequel and I will read the next book in this series because this story is full of surprising plot twists.

[ラリッサ · Rating 5 out of 5]

To be honest I love this series but I felt like it was a little slow. (Vol. 2) The ending made up for it!

[Ekene · Rating 4 out of 5]

More so a 3.5 because the beginning-and most of it was dense and then the last few pages had a twist that had me like 🤯🤯🤯

Great next installment. The plot thickens...

Leider ging diesmal die Story nur sehr zäh voran, auch wenn ich das erste und letzte Kapitel wieder sehr gut fand oo ich hoffe sehr, Band drei nimmt wieder an fahrt auf, auch wenn der Manga diesmal keineswegs schlecht war, nur ist eben nicht wirklich mehr passiert oo
