review 1: Much better than volume one.In this one we see a bit more into Kasuga's personality and we find that he's not quite as 'stuck-up' as we first thought. Although he does look down on those that don't read complex books like him, we find that he does have a heart.Saeki becomes more ...

review 1: Saeki is floundering, lost. Nakamura is impulsive, bored, slighty psychotic. Kasuga has come into himself as a sadist and appears as if he has accepted himself. However this book in the series takes complacency and acceptance and turns it on its head. I did not think it was as we...
