Review
After deciding the first one was pretty cool, I picked up volume two. It completely surpassed the first volume. There was so much action and the story progression is keeping such a great pace. I went to the library immediately to get the next two.
Yuki and Yuno are just beginning to get to know each other better, and Yuki is warming up to her. Yuno really has a thing for Yuki and he doesn’t understand why. Their relationship is just beginning to take a step in the right direction when Yuki makes a horrifying discovery. There’s something dark that we don’t know about Yuno and I can’t wait to figure out exactly what it is.
This volume has some pretty big plot twists. There’s really no telling who is on what side. When the servants at the temple fall into a trance and begin killing, they need to find out who is behind it. Yuno and Kurusu seem like the only ones with their heads on straight in a crisis.
I’m really loving this series. On to volume three!
