3.0

 Sometimes it's better to keep your head-canons to yourself. Even if you're the author. 

 

Volume 1 had the perfect ending, why stretch it unnecessarily? Just for money? Especially the smut scene was screaming 'fanservice sequel'. 

 

It would be good in itself, or like an AU type of thing, but fells incredibly flat as a sequel.Especially cause this ending was essentially the same as vol1's ending …
Also, the dialogues here were very confusing. Not sure whether that's just the translation – hopefully, honestly, otherwise it adds another point to the one above. 

 

3 stars cause it wasn't really bad, just "meh", and also had consent, which is so rare for Yaoi/BL. Additionally, the soft/tender vibe from volume 1 was here too, and I did like the one chapter from Mimori's perspective. 

Chapter 1 of this volume should've been completely scratched though.
