Made in Heaven: Juri #2

Made in Heaven #2

by Yukari Yashiki (illustrator), Ami Sakurai

When Juri met Kazemichi, she felt like she'd met a kindred soul. But little did she know that he used to be Reiji, a boy nearly killed in a terrible car accident but pieced back together with prosthetics and covered in unfeeling, artificial skin. She also didn't know that his parts were wearing down, or that he was about to die...again.When Kazemichi's body is found in the wreckage of a mysterious explosion, Juri begins to unravel the dark secrets of his past: his mother, the organization that rebuilt him...and the man who gave him the name Kazemichi. There are two sides to every story. Look for Made in Heaven: Kazemichi, also available from TOKYOPOP.

Reviews

[Kirby R.]

3.5! As with the first book, most of the story beats aren't given enough context or time to feel important or to make much sense in the grand scheme. I did like this one better because it was more coherent throughout, at least by comparison, as the investigation throughline was always present. Also, the ending panels were sweet.

This doesn't impact the rating, but I thought it was silly and quaint that the book includes an ad and a preview for the first book. Unless they are somehow meant to be read in either order (given that they are numbered, I don't think this is the case), there wouldn't really have been a need to include this, but I think its fun that it was.

Bem mais interessante que o volume 1. Meio confuso em partes, no entanto. Leitura triste e final bem bittersweet, enquanto o primeiro volume é mais dark.

Such a sad and cute ending. Almost had tears in my eyes.
