I'd liked the first half of this duology but then this one dragged on. Did we really have to follow three heterosexual couples figuring out that they love each other and that includes two pairs of siblings?? And maybe up to six different armed factions. I was rooting for them all, but not all the way invested anymore. And for a series with so much around the foreign sector and the Japanese imperialist threat, none of the geopolitics were particularly fleshed out.
