Hmm. Book 3 took a turn for the weird — mostly with Yor's brother, Yuri. I'm not a fan of his unhinged  interrogations or his oddly intense and inappropriate feelings for his sister.

This is an absolutely wonderful volume. I gave this volume a perfect rating because episode 14 has at its centre an encounter between the characters that poses a quite thought provoking moral dilemma and to elaborate further would be spoilers. Yor’s brother Yuri is a great addition to the cast that complicates things in a fun way that will likely pay off down the line. Also great is beefing up the role of Franky, Loid’s intelligence asset liaison. Having him more present makes everything more fun. This volume is Tatsuya Enzo firing out of all cylinders. I can’t wait to start volume 4.

There is a sequence where there’s a depiction of drowning and frankly I’m surprised drowning isn’t in the content trigger warnings list on StoryGraph.

Seriously, everyone, if you want something that's entertaining, fun, with a lot of great characters, this is the manga for you! things are getting more complex as we find out that Yor's brother is a part of the secret police, hunting Twilight. Honestly, that whole scene with them at dinner was just hilarious. This is definitely a series that I could marathon read in one day, if I had all the volumes.
