I accidentally checked sequel first before reading the 1st book. Did not make sense at all so I read the first one before reading sense. Made much more sense. The art style is cute as always. They're building on from the previous book. It seems the story won't continue and it doesn't make sense to. They wrapped up everything nicely. The new characters are sparky and don't know any better. Our MCs still work nice together. Nice book. It's not jaw dropping but enjoyable for me.

I still love this art; the evil guy especially has some amazing effects. I thought this second sequel was a little rushed—I would have preferred a little more filler broken up across two books—but I really enjoyed the story.
