Day of Revolution 2
February 26, 2007
This volume was a little better because they worked really really hard on Mikoto this time around. The focus was on just that one character, and although the rest stayed pretty flat, it was nice to see that Megumi picked one and stuck with it. The author mentions that Megumi didn’t pick one of her four male friends because the fans of the series all liked a different one and she didn’t want to alienate a majority of the fans by picking one. My response to that was… huh? They all have a slightly different personality, but they were also all basically treated as one character. You COULD pick one, and it would be just like picking them all, plus you’d get the added bonus of a drama-tacular split from the main group.
The story that takes place two years after the main one is a little weird. It features a completely new character, and although it is comedic… it doesn’t quite pull anything off. There’s also another side story that disappointed me in the extreme because I peeked at the last pages before I got there and thought that they were having sex. Boo, too big a tease.
So yes, not a series for most, I think.
