It's so strange going back to do Hoshi Takasora's origin story. I know her mm her appearance in Married Teacher, and there she kinda reminds me a lot of Chiki from this story, which makes me really interested to see how she ends up there.
Anyway, really good book. Iruma Hitoma doesn't seem to have developed his "every book has a central symbolism" habit that shows up in his later titles, though the names do fall into that trope for one. Lots of CWs in this one though so make sure you're okay with them before proceeding.

Writing as I'm 25% into Volume 3 -- absolutely loving this series!
The messiness of the situations, the emotions on page, and the excellent writing all combine for a story I haven't been able to put down for days.
This book in particular was loaded with "wow, that was a really good way to describe that feeling" moments.
I feel like the writing (and translation into English) in this is actively *great*, and really serves to elevate the story beyond what I was expecting.
Highly recommend if you're here for insights into messy, but relatable, characters trying to navigate some... pretty interesting situations.

It feels real, it feels painful, and it's very well written. I'll be honest, I didn't like the story. Cycle of abuse themes throughout on literally every side.

Helt utrolig forferdlig ending men måten den viser enkelte vonde tema på er veldig nyansert og den formidler følelsen av det fantastiskt via tekst.
