Following Elly’s first night and day at work and all the misunderstandings and challenges that ensue, vol 2 is when Blood Stain really begins to shine. 

The art is dynamic and has a lot of personality which, combined with the characters and antics, makes for an incredibly fun read if you like a healthy dose of the ridiculous. We also start to see more of Elly’s active imagination in the form of videogame themed daydreams which are such a treat. 

My only complaint would be that the art can be inconsistent and some panels feel slightly lifeless but I did not find this detracted from the story or my enjoyment of the art overall.
