There are some very sketchy people in this. Masato isn’t a nice guy, and then there’s this Crow, who tried to assault “Ran” - I was also surprised they seem to have let him assassinate Fumi anyway.
Ran is too oblivious and getting pushed around by everyone. Masato’s aunt is creepy and his sister sounds like she’ll be a problem too.

An improvement on the first vol

I'm currently on the fence about this series. There are aspects that I genuinely appreciate, especially the art style, which is both captivating and beautifully executed. The story has intriguing elements, such as the mystery and the setting, which draw me in and keep me engaged.
However, some parts of the series leave me questioning its overall appeal. The female protagonist's naivety and submissiveness seem to be significant traits, but I'm unsure if they are meant to reflect the "historical time period" accurately or if they are supposed to be charming character flaws (which btw they are not!) . This ambiguity makes it challenging to connect with the character on a deeper level.
Moreover, it’s perplexing how the protagonist is portrayed as a capable woman, fully able to defend and take care of herself, yet she doesn't seem to question the intentions of those around her. This inconsistency in her characterization is frustrating and detracts from her believability as a strong and independent individual.
I also have concerns about the male lead. What is the deal with this guy? He can be serious and even nice to her, but then he goes and burns her house down? A character like that makes me uneasy. Even if it was meant in some twisted way as a method for her to let go of the past (this is wishful thinking), it came across as excessively violent and disturbing. And again, she goes on to not even show that this was disturbing or really bothered her, which adds to the frustration.
Despite these concerns, I plan to give the series one more chance to see if the story and character development improve. I’m hopeful that further development will address these issues and enhance my overall enjoyment.

Things are coming together a little better than they did in the first volume, and this one was more enjoyable as a result. I'm still not fond of the art, which doesn't feel confident enough to carry the story. I rather like Tachibana, but Masato and Crow are both character types it will take me a while to warm to.
