This was a great volume. What I think I’m starting to appreciate most about this series is, while it has its fantastical elements and the author loves writing in metaphors and one-liners, the topics it ends up addressing are so universal. Sure, there may be a character who was saved by the season god’s incarnate, but the true core to her story is the isolation and frustration she feels at feeling she is both overly reliant and constantly living in her sister’s shadow. The middle chapter with Ruri grappling with her and Ayame’s new reality was beautifully written, and the twist at the end of that chapter had me audibly gasping. The prose and characters are just so lush, and I feel so engrossed and captivated as I read about them, even as the paragraphs run circles around their incessant ponderings. I’m definitely looking forward to the next volume and conclusion of this arc.

ดีว่าภาคที่แล้ว ดีที่แก้เรื่องการแบ่งบทให้ย่อยลงจำนวนหน้าแต่ละบทกระชับขึ้น เรื่องการตัดเข้า flashback นี่ก็เยอะอยู่แต่ไม่รำคาญเท่าภาคที่แล้ว ตัวละครเยอะขึ้นก็ยังเอาอยู่กระจายบทโอเค

Another fun part of the saga!! It’s sad that some bad things happen but I love how the story develops. Moving to the next volume go go go!

I am enjoying this series, but I don't know if it's the writing style or the translation that doesn't agree with me.

definitely still like it enough to continue at least

I loved the first two books so much I was skeptical on the focus switching to other characters in the series. But I loved just as much, if not more!!
