Now you see her, now you don't! As a child, Tsubomi Kido rarely spoke. Just as she starts to find herself, with help from her older sister, tragedy strikes her home. When death approaches, Kido discovers the Kagerou Daze, where she meets a mysterious woman who grants her a powerful gift...or curse. In the outside" world of the present, the Mekakushi-dan gathers their combined strength to unravel the mystery that's ensnared them all!
My favourite volume so far! I binged it in just a couple of hours, which is rare for me.
I love Kido, she has always been one of my faves and still is, so getting lots from her POV as well as her backstory that I didn't know all that well, made me really happy. Even if her past was more messed up that I thought it was going to be, but it was still interesting.
I also love the way this volume used the flashback chapters with the present time, making the flashbacks relevant to the present-time plot the way it did with its last chapter. It's so intense! I had to order the next one immediately; I have been on this light novel journey for 4 years now in total, it's time to face its end, even if it will sadden me to do so too, naturally..
Changing point of views make this a more difficult read than part VI. Still it's nice to get Kido's backstory. This part also explains a lot about the Kagerou Daze and how it came to be.
The plot moves forward into the confrontation with the mastermind.
Franchisewise it ties in with Song: Children Record.
Creo que, junto con el volumen anterior, por goleada son los mejores volúmenes de toda la serie. KIDO TE AMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
This can get a little bit cheesy at times, but it’s always good fun—especially when you get those moments where you’re like, no way, I can’t believe that really just happened. Also my guy really knows how to write an afterword ha-ha, they’re always hilarious.
