nini's manga / #sequel(44)

➷ plot: ★★★★★ ➷ characters: ★★★★★ ➷ chemistry: ★★★★★ ➷ pacing/development: ★★★★★ ➷ art style: ★★★★★ ➷ overall: ★★★★★ ※ ok so i didnt expect the plot to stick to solving one case for the entirety of it, but its ok i still really liked it !! i just wished we could see more cases afterwards bc the first volume was so interesting hehe <33 i think we could already see some slight developments of the couple's feelings from the first book and their feelings grew more in here which is nice ^^ i just wished we could see more of them bc they only got together towards the end >< but nonetheless, i was still very satisfied bc the extras gave us some sweet and wholesome moments ♡ the pace and development was nice :D i could really see how they both cared for each other, esp kuroiwa, even though hes emotionless most of the time we can really see how much he cares for asako the author did a really great job at making everyone suspicious, i really thought that nishi was the one who killed mari but to our surprise there was a much deeper plot and it all made sense in the end which felt so satisfying the plot and art style are just amazing <3 i dont really have anything else to say ~ even though i already knew the plot twists and stuff, this is still a book that i would gladly reread bc i really enjoyed every single bit of it ^^ i wish there was more stories like this, not only is it thrilling but it's also sweet bc of the romance >< i wanted to see more of them as an established couple but the extras were able to satisfy me hehe so i'm fine overall i really really enjoyed this !!! would recommend this to true crime enthusiasts ~ another worth it read i loved it a lot

➷ plot: ★★★★★ ➷ characters: ★★★★★ ➷ chemistry: ★★★★★ ➷ pacing/development: ★★★★★ ➷ art style: ★★★★★ ➷ overall: ★★★★★ ※ lemme just say i want to cry bc the extra is nowhere to be found i really want to read what happens after pls ㅠㅠ but anyway this was a great sequel~ this really showed how much their relationship got stronger and we actually got to see hara's destined person ^^ but of course his destiny is kaoru and kaoru only though the manager was so pretty, wish i can be her destiny instead jkjk the first few chapters were so freaking fluffy and cute ㅠㅠ i'm also happy we got to see arako ^^ he was like a love counselor for them lol thanks for talking to the both of them jsjsjd kaoru's brother is so cute the way he teases and supports kaoru is just adorable :( also the twins just love kaoru to bits ackkk i love hara thats it periodt jk but fr he always reassures kaoru :( i understand why kaoru didnt want to cut the string, but still that was kind of pessimistic of him jdjsjdj and thats why i love hara hes such a nice person pls i could write an entire essay just for him i love how he always checks up on kaoru and hes not afraid to tell the manager that they were actually lovers ╥﹏╥ my only wish is to see the extra pls ㅠㅠ the last chapter was so adorable of course but knowing the fact that this has an extra and i cant find it, hurts but overall it ended so beautifully so i'm still satisfied hehe ^^ hopefully i could find the extras though~ i really enjoyed this series !! from the main story to the spin-off plus its sequel <3 it was all good ♡ i'm happy that kaoru has finally found his own destiny~ i love the both of them so much :< get married already grrr anyway this had me crying a tiny bit bc of the last part jdjdhjd but i did have an inkling that hara wouldn't give up that easily if kaoru didnt come hehe ^^ again the art style is pretty hihi this was a great read !!

➷ plot: ★★★☆☆ ➷ characters: ★★★☆☆ ➷ chemistry: ★★☆☆☆ ➷ pacing/development: ★★★☆☆ ➷ art style: ★★★★★ ➷ overall: ★★★☆☆ ※ i really tried to like this since the rating was 9.0 which was unexpected for me since i've read the prequel before :0 i actually avoided reading this bc i didn't like masaki at the prequel, he was a blackmailing abusive rapist which is why it was so hard for me to see him in a different light D: he seemed more nice in here and ig tsubaki helped him change as well ?? but the thing is we never got to see him convey his feelings for him :( like ik its obvious hes doing those kind things bc he prolly caught feelings for tsubasa, but i wanted to see more communication between couple since that's how i get connected with the characters :> i was surprised with the stalker twist, i didn't expect tsubasa to be the stalking type, he wasn't your typical toxic stalker but idk that was kind of interesting :] the plot was okay ig ?? but it wasn't really my cup of tea :)) ppl said that potn resembles this, which i can agree on but the thing with seungho is that now hes finally showing more affection, he also conveyed his feelings for nakyum, and we can really see that slowly hes changing ^^ well ig thats bc potn is still ongoing, but if this was a bit longer i think this would've had more potential <33 i also wanted to see masaki's birthday celebration with his family but the extras were quite adorable ♡ esp the fact that tsubasa is also getting along with his family ^^ overall it was okay, i didn't hate nor like it :> i wish it could've been longer so that we could've seen more development and connection between them ^^ the art style's very pretty though this was an okay read !! ^^

➷ plot: ★★★★★ ➷ characters: ★★★★★ ➷ chemistry: ★★★☆☆ ➷ pacing/development: ★★★★☆ ➷ art style: ★★★★★ ➷ overall: ★★★★★ ※ the rating i gave is for the second couple hihi i already read the prequel and i just love seeing toyohashi and takatsuki being all domestic and cute >< i'm sad we didn't get to see them go on that trip though :(( but this was such a cute sequel (though this was actually the main story since this was created first ) <33 about the second couple, i think tsubaki is cute and azuma seems like a fun person esp the extras they looked adorable ^^ but i personally think that the pacing was a bit fast, idk maybe its just me but i just felt like he just suddenly liked azuma lol i mean i understand why he caught some feelings but i just think the end was quite rushed~ i wish we got to see more of their interactions after they got together too :> the extra in bitter cigar (the prequel) showed teased the assumed meeting of the first and second couple which is adorable i hope the author showed us the whole thing ㅠㅠ but nonetheless both books were so good !!! ♡ i hope the author makes a 3rd volume for us to see more of their established relationships !! ^^ overall this was a very fun and adorable sequel <3 i'm happy that tsubaki got a good character development and he also found his happiness >< the art style is adorable i probably have a thing for takatsuki's crying face >< this was a good read !!

➷ plot: ★★★★☆ ➷ characters: ★★★★☆ ➷ chemistry: ★★★☆☆ ➷ pacing/development: ★★★☆☆ ➷ art style: ★★★★★ ➷ overall: ★★★★★ ※ okay i was so shocked at how promiscuous herve (alvie) was lol he was so strict, gentle, and stern in the main story that this was like a gap moe i'm not complaining though i mean ig there was a teaser of it towards the end of the first book's extra~ i rated this five (5) stars bc i enjoyed the read, it was pretty fun and ig the ending was cute too <3 but i have a lot of questions tarjel ??? like is he just gone ??? also if tarjel didnt mention anything abt yuri (uriel), herve would've agreed to doing it with him ???? i mean ig herve and vadis weren't official yet but still that made me kind if :0 but i'm glad they officially got together ^^ i love how ald calls herve "father-in-law" pls they're so adorable ㅠㅠ i absolutely adore yuri pls my ball of sunshine, hes so precious back to the main couple, if we think abt it the pace of their relationship was so slow since they've already been together (not official) for three (3) years :O thats so long lol and they only progressed bc of this incident jshdhhd the plot for this spin-off was quite simple and short than the main story, but i still liked it !! there were vague and unanswered parts but it was still enjoyable :D i wish we could've seen more of them after officially being together bc everything happened so fast and it just ended abruptly without an extra but i was still quite satisfied with it ^^ the author's art style got better as well, i feel like the characters' features got more defined they're all so pretty pls, i cant help but appreciate even tarjel's visuals also i wanted to see more of prince mandeek, i was expecting him to have an appearance and also have some progress with sheena (the teacher on the first book) but ig bc the plot focused more on the conflict and it was also quite short that the author didnt have the time to include them :< but overall i still had fun reading this ^^ this was a good read !!
