My Lovely Ghost KANA, Volume 2 by Yutaka Tanaka
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
It’s a little difficult to review this volume of the tale of Dai and Kana as it’s largely the same as that which came before: regular life interspersed with some well-shielded sex.
My feelings for it remain the same as they were when I wrote my review of the first volume: it’s nothing earthshattering, but it is pretty enjoyable, and seems a very true-to-life observation of how relationships change. There’s hints of greater darkness here – and the introduction of other characters to the apartment complex, though this hasn’t (yet) created any untoward drama – but it’s still pretty lighthearted.
The problem is probably the episodic nature of the work: you could take each ‘chapter’ and read it in almost any order you like and it wouldn’t really change the outcome.
I’ll be interested to see how the third volume wraps everything up.
