![]() ![]() Lange habe ich auf die Fortsetzung der Reihe gewartet und konnte mich kaum zurückhalten, sie endlich auch zu lesen. I feel a painful ending coming - at least to my mind. And to glimpse the "final few chapters" note in the bio suggests little time to repair the damage done. It broke my heart to watch this unfolding of the plot. It's so shallow and disappointing - to say nothing of an opposite route than how she generally approaches her protagonists. Or not in such a superficial way, at any rate. I wanted to see a butterfly narrative that didn't rely on appearance. Deguchi's shown so much growth and strength up to this point. The heightened drama surrounding the wedding was also anticipated.īut why, oh why did Deguchi's looks need to change? Yes, I worried things would head in that direction (a common trope), but I believed Tanemura-san would carry the plot in a different direction. Of course, I expected the love triangle (that's a standard for her writing). Unfortunately, it's because she chose to follow the route I didn't want to see the story take. I could lose myself in the imagery for days. How long's it been since Volume 6? (Suffice it to say I needed a reread to refresh my brain on what was going on) These insanely long breaks between publications do a real number on you!Īs always, I can't get enough of Tanemura-san's gorgeous artwork. ![]()
