While the volume tackles lots of compelling topics—the dangers of putting someone on a pedestal, the abuse of power and influence, the effectiveness of the justice system—Satoshi Morie's intentions with the story remain unclear so it's hard to say if any of it is executed well. That said, big fan of the use of double-page spreads throughout.
Once, again, it feels like this series is trying to make itself out to be far more dramatic than it actually is. A lot of the internal conflicts that Rize is going through honestly seem kind of dumb. Like, her "logic" doesn't make any sense to me. Now, she's just had the mental image of her brother shattered after using it as a mental crutch for many years. So I suppose some of her erratic and conflicted mindset can make some sense.
No puedo con que ya se reveló qué ocurrió. Me faltan dos tomos, así que esto va a tener otro giro dramático, lo veo venir. Mi apuesta va al policía.
Rize me da pena, la pobre muchacha creó una imagen de su hermano de la que no se quiere despegar porque es difícil al haber sido su soporte emocional por más de una década. Sin embargo, como parte de no idealizar a nadie, acá se va al extremo de un hermano cuyas circunstancias de vida lo obligaron a cambiar para mal; por otro lado, Kairi, también ve caer a su padre de modelo de rectitud a viejo cochino que se aprovecha de su puesto.
Quiero mucho a Kairi, el morrito es fiel a su ideal de justicia y es buena persona, ojalá no le pase nada.
Un volume illuminante, straziante per quanto riguarda la confessione di Uchida sul fratello di Kizaki, commovente e dolcissimo per la scena finale. Mi è piaciuto particolarmente il fatto che ci sia all’inizio del volume una scheda con i protagonisti con le loro relative informazioni, le tavole sono molto belle.

I am loving this story for showing that life is not black and white. Good or bad. You can do bad things and still be a good person or vice versa. That backstory about Kairi and his story with Masaki was shocking. But it all makes sense. What happened to sweet little Masaki after being separated from his sister????
