oyceterHuh. I am not sure what to think of this. There have been a spate of killings called "the fairy murders," as each victim has a pattern of bloodspray around their back that looks vaguely like fairy wings.
Meanwhile, Ian has grown up thinking that he had green hair and red eyes, though he does not. He has also been able to see fairies, but because of saying this, he is known as a liar. His childhood friend Rin, whom he has not talked to since he rejected her years ago, has just moved back, and suddenly, Tokage, the cruel fairy who manipulates people around Ian, puts his evil plan into action.
Whew! It's nice to know that Yuki Kaori can still cram more plot into one volume than most people can into 5.
So far, I am very confused, as I had to flip back every other page to figure out what just happened, and I have no idea what is going on. Also, while there have been some interactions with Ian and Rin, Rin sadly has stopped being interesting and very quickly started being The Girl. Oh Yuki Kaori! Will you ever write women as cool as Alexiel again?
I am also sad, because I don't know how into this series I will get, given that there is only one more volume. But I will continue to read for the insanity!
