This volume wasn't as good as the first, in my opinion. The stories all involve children, bad things happen to them, and the whole thing kinda left a bad taste in my brain. I don't know what is up with this Orochi chick, she seems to just go around watching (and sometimes helping) people screw up their lives with her really vague powers that seem to involve pointing at things. The last story, Key, is a boy-who-cried-wolf trope, and has a particularly unsatisfying ending. The art is good though.
I would recommend this is you're a fan of Kazuo Umezz, but not so much if you're a casual reader.
