Respectfully the politics make me wanna rip my eyes out and so does Rin. And yet I keep getting drawn back in. Something about the story has me hooked, on the edge of my seat if you will and I just can't put it down. I really, really just wanted to stick around for Rin/Nezha crumbs but that's gone on the wind.
Man fuck Nezha right now. I'm sure the third book will redeem him but asdfgjal he sucks right now. AND yet even after all that I don't want Rin to kill him ;-; I'm still hoping for reconciliation.
