As the previous volume, it again was very rushed. Understandable if you can only do 2 volumes, but I hope the author gets to flesh out this story someday, as there's a lot of to unpack. Would be a waste, if not.

I was mostly rooting for the antagonist, so it was sad that they didn't succeed. The whole climax was pretty funny though, because of how lighthearted, with only a few action scenes, it was kept. Lol.

Also, it's finally Yuri at the end, but only through a confession. So, yea, more friendship-Yuri than true GL.
