As more backstory is revealed through this volume (and the last) the story and cast of characters are finally starting to make more sense. It felt like the first half of this series was spent establishing the characters and setting up the problem, while this second half is finally explaining how the problem came to be, the characters past's (and true nature) and set up for the resolution. This long set up for the story is why I probably wouldn't recommend right away to others. That being said I rather enjoyed this volume and the relationships that were strengthened between two of the three main characters (the third being out for most of the volume). I suppose not remembering their names is a slight fault to the series in my opinion (and why I think manga should have a character/summary page at the beginning of each volume).
