The first half wasn’t what I expected, and I ended up enjoying the second half more than anything else. But what is the second half, really—other than a continuation of the first? That very contrast makes them opposites, like two sides of this novel.
If you're not into the classic "Nisio Isin structure"—half the story dedicated to fun and games, followed by a final burst of dense, dialogue-driven resolution—then this probably won’t be your kind of Tale.
But if you’ve been keeping up with the series, then you already know the deal. This isn’t the first time we’ve been GET GOT by the brilliant insanity of Nisio Isin’s mind.
There are words here that resonate with me—not just as a reader, but on a deeply human level. Maybe the way they’re packaged won’t land the same for everyone, but the impact is undeniable.
