V3 was released on 19th and I can always get access to Fujimi Shobou's books on Day 1. For pacing, Itsuten was also quite fast-paced and went into an unexpected direction later. I mean, the editor even asked Kagami whether v3 was the 2nd last volume or something lol. Kagami already said he is trying to surpass his previous works in scale and craziness, and so far with respect to craziness, I say he's doing a good job. As usual, his poor linguistics choices, overly curt sentences, and bad puns make me cringe, but it doesn't change my enjoyment of his mind-blowing developments. With regards to scale, he hinted in v2 afterword that whatever that has been established in a single volume sets the preface for something, so I'd expect some really major twist, curveball, or even a change in scope of the story. Speculation: who knows? maybe they are going to fight the demons controlling the diseased girls in another dimension, and maybe those demons are created by humans. At any rate, I suspect the origin of the labyrinth disease to be one of the key hooks of the story. |

I know it's annoying for a translator to be asked for a spoiler because they want to provide a full translation so I appreciate you crossing that line.Glad to see I'm not the only one thankful for the spoilers

Thanks larethian.This series has me hooked since the first volume much more than the previous works by the author. As for that traitor kiri she is one of the few characters that have ever made me want them dead, unfortunately she seems somewhat relevant in the story so idk if it will happen .

I finally got the chance to properly finish the 2nd half.
My thoughts on it: JAW-DROP! SPEECHLESS! MIND-BLOWN! There are other interesting things happening in between but, out of sheer excited throes from my fangasm, I'll just share this one thing: Spoiler for key spoiler event in v3:
Now I can finally spend time to read Otaria this weekend. |

On that note, how do you manage to get LNs on release date? I always have to wait several days for them to ship in. |

Just read the first volume. As always, Kagami delivers and as if on cue I see larethian doing the same. Thank you larethian. From reading the spoilers I've come to the conclusion that I would be better served waiting a bit so I don't get crushed by cliffhangers. This series triggers my imouto/sis-con fetish like crazy.. even though we haven't even seen much of the sister.
