In this volume, we meet Yor's brother (fair warning for the "siscon" trope here), Twilight's handler, and the friends and adversaries Anya will have to contend with at Eden Academy. Anya's school life promises to be very entertaining between the developing crush neither she nor her mark understand, his posse of wannabe tough guy bullies, and her one genuine friend with a spunky attitude and a fiercely loyal heart. Meanwhile, Loid and Yor continue to struggle through the hardships of parenting and feeling like they aren't enough for this child who already believes so wholly in their capabilities. Their family dynamic continues to grow and shift as they navigate "ordinary" life together, and it's so wholesome how firmly they band together to help each other. The bonus mission at the end, a side story originally created to introduce a new audience to the series, is a prime example of this.
