irayred's review against another edition
4.0
In this second volume, Subaru has another chance to be around Emilia whilst getting to know the others a little more, and understand the different types of magic –at least, that’s on the bright side of things. On the dark side, he gets killed a couple of times more and eventually he meets the person behind his current deaths.
Now, I don’t want to give a lot of spoilers but it is true that the people in the mansion are good at pretending to trust him. His smell stinks just like the Witch of Jealousy so they have the right to be concerned about where his loyalty lays.
Still, in this volume we see a devastated Subaru: we see him at his lowest, deep within a raw emotion that is hard to explain. I think that the illustrator’s work complements the light novels perfectly and both formats are, indeed, the greatest combo along with the anime adaptation.
I’m gonna be honest and say that it really made me shed a few tears out of frustration and empathy for Subaru, who honestly has suffered so much in just a few chapters. I could never imagine what it would be like to be forgotten by everyone you know…
Anyway, this second volume had more explicit violence, so please be aware of that.
Read it for the #SpringIntoMangaLove mangathon.
