サマーウォーズ [Summer Wars] #2

by Iqura Sugimoto (Adaptor), 杉基イクラ, Mamoru Hosoda (Original Story)

When timid eleventh-grader and math genius Kenji Koiso is asked by older student and secret crush Natsuki to come with her to her family’s Nagano home for a summer job, he agrees without hesitation. Natsuki’s family, the Jinnouchi clan, dates back to the Muromachi era, and they’ve all come together to celebrate the 90th birthday of the spunky matriarch of the family, Sakae. That’s when Kenji discovers his “summer job” is to pretend to be Natsuki’s fiancé and dance with her at the birthday celebration. As Kenji attempts to keep up with Natsuki’s act around her family, he receives a strange math problem on his cell phone which, being a math genius, he can’t resist solving. As it turns out, the solution to the mysterious equation causes a hijacking of the social networking site through which most of the world's social and business traffic flows.

I have nothing to say except that I am much happy with this sequel. It is a fast pacing, great plot, and awesome! However, two parts are pretty predictable. Oh well, still gonna continue the third and the final book of the trilogy and...am curious to see the ending. 😅

Nenek Sakae ni macam perdana menteri dah. Telefon orang ternama sana-sini minta tolong dan bagi semangat kat barisan hadapan. Ahli keluarga besar Natsuki bukan calang2 ye. Ramai betul yang berpangkat besar dari pelbagai kerja barisan hadapan. Rasanya, sebab inilah kot pakcik Wabisuke berasa rendah diri, selain daripada status dia sebagai anak perempuan simpanan suami nenek Sakae.

Pertarungan avatar2 di dunia Oz dah macam berlaku kat dunia sebenar. Berpeluh2 diorang berlawan dalam alam maya, berpeluh2 juga diorang kena bermain dengan komputer kat dunia sebenar. Sampai hangus super komputer sebab bekerja keras. Eh tak, semua salah pakcik Sho la ni yang pergi alihkan ais yang digunakan untuk sejukkan super komputer. Hadoi la pakcik Sho ni... 😓 Nak je kena terajang dia ni.

A great series full of people who are each learning that in order to protect yourself, you must first learn to protect others. There's a little something for everyone, gorgeous art, sci-fi action, social commentary, and through it all the love and innocence of youth. Apparently the movie version came first, but I've never see it, something I hope to rectify soon.

Tarina jatkuu siitä, mistä edellinen osio päättyi. Joten nämä on pakko lukea ilmestymisjärjestyksessä.

Tämä oli jopa parempi kuin edellinen osa. Tässä juoni jatkui sujuvasti jatkaen tarinaa siitä, kuinka todellisen maailman ja nettimaailma konfliktit jatkuivat. Nyt tilanne etenee siihen, että vaikutukset todelliseen maailmaan pahenevat saaden aikaan todella suuria seuraamuksia.

Kirjassa on upeasti välitetty tunnelmaa ja varsinkin yksi kohta oli todella upea: siinä ns. koko maailma hiljenee ja kuvataan vain sitä hetkeä ja tunnelmaa. Se oli todella upea! Maailma pysähtyy hetkeksi ja kukin vain on. Ei kuulu kuin tuulikellon kilinää tuulessa, mutta muuten maailma on pysähtynyt siksi hetkeksi.
Bravo! 👏🏻

With every reread I realise again how much I love the design of King Kazma. I'll have to draw him again soon.

ik this should be in the review for book one but I was so sad when Granny Sakea (did I spell that right? probably not) died. :(
I kinda want to watch the movie now... wonder if I can find it

I enjoyed this volume more than I enjoyed the first. I find this series to be a very fun, quick read. I am unsure if there are other volumes, but even if there are this volume had a perfect ending and didn't leave any questions unanswered.

One of the best manga and anime out there. This is a great place to start for anyone just getting into the genre.
