mysterious
slow-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? No
- Loveable characters? No
- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

I just want to say right off the bat that Susanoo is not the ruler of Yomi. It’s actually Izanami, the wife of Susanoo’s father, Izanagi, and one of the creators of the islands of Japan. She died and ate some underworld fruit, so when Izanagi tried to rescue her, Izanami couldn’t leave, thus leaving her to rule Yomi. Susanoo may be a bit of a jerk, but he’s more like the Loki of the Japanese pantheon. How on earth do you miss all this information when you’re doing Internet research??
I hate this book. It’s so stupid... They’re all so stupid...
It’s just a continuing cycle of Katie with Tomohiro, Katie reiterates the same cycle of questions, Katie goes to Jun, Katie thinks about all the physical contact, Katie crying... Repeat. That’s it. I don’t even understand how Tomohiro and Katie even work. They have no discernible chemistry, there’s nothing solid keeping them together. Tomo’s gorgeous, okay whatever, but what else? There’s no base of common ground, except for ink hunting them down. It’s all so flimsy, it’s all just heterosexual fodder.
