A series that turned from a High School Vampire story to a full blown recovery story about PTSD and violent attacks. Holy shit, Oshimi is growing as a writer for sure.

As we saw in the last volume Gosho is now trying to live her life out as a independent woman working a 9-5. But one of her coworkers cares deeply about her and decides to ask her out. But as he gets to know her she stumbles on a newspaper about the vampire who slashed her neck prior and almost ended her life. She goes into a full blown nervous breakdown and this volume is about her recovery with the help of a friend.

If you told me this manga would move me by volume 6 I'd call you a liar. It's not that volume 1-3 are bad, they're good, but this feels like a way different story. This is a more mature look at recovering and finding happiness in the darkest days. So will Gosho be able to do that? To move on? To live her life? The way we all should when horrible shit happens to us in the past? Easier said than done, isn't it?

Happiness volume 6 might be the best volume in the sense of character growth and even character relationship. Sure, we don't move the plot forward for other characters and such but Gosho we move mountains of character development to get to know her and how she'll survive.

I loved this volume. A 5 out of 5.
