Midori Days, Volume 2

美鳥の日々 [Midori no Hibi] #2

by Kazurō Inoue

The continuation of this unique romantic comedy in which our bickering couple become attached in more ways than one...

At heart, tough guy Seiji Sawamura is a softy, and all he wants is to end his romantic losing streak. Then one day, Seiji wakes up to discover his "devil's right hand" has turned into...a miniature gal named Midori! Strangely enough, Midori is a real girl who is just as surprised as Seiji to find out she has become - literally - Seiji's right hand! Midori has always had a crush on Seiji, and her desperate wish to be connected to him has somehow come true...maybe all too true!

Midori has disappeared! Seiji's hand is normal again! He should be happy but...once he admits he really does kind of like her, back she comes. Later he dresses up as a woman to catch a pervert on the subway. Things go awry when he uses his "hand" to stop a potential groping. Then he runs into one of his embarrassing otaku classmates who thinks Seiji is a fan, like him, of super-realistic hand puppets!

Hilarious! Simply LOL! 😂 I couldn't stop laughing! I am satisfied with this volume: 80% comedy, 10% drama, 10% action. This mix just gives me the right enough "feels" for the characters, their backstories. I am motivated to continue reading. Superb! 😁

I think I did end up liking book two better than book one, except that there were a few scenes cut out so I sometimes didn't understand the entire story. I think that the series is getting better because the first book isn't usually the strongest one in a series. I also liked the overall plot of book two. The plot is pretty strange thought because of the entire his-hand-is-a-girl thing. Weird!!! I think I should also add that thought this isn't my favorite series, it is pretty enjoyable. I might just be picky!
