Speaking in fits and starts when she doesn’t fall completely silent, her go-to line is “I’m sorry,” and she’s given to referring to herself in third person. Nadeko Sengoku is pretty, and not just cute. When a jealous classmate tried to hex her with a fraudulent charm, Miss Bangs went and got cursed in earnest all by herself, having done her homework wrong and performed a gruesome ritual at a forgotten shrine. Thank goodness Big Brother Koyomi noticed and rescued her that time, but chopping up snakes at a place of worship that was dedicated to a serpent… It might come back to bite her again, hmmmm? Hoping to be saved by someone, but unable to ask for help, the shyest member of the cast explores a running theme of these tales in her own halting voice this round: While self-reliance is well and good, beware of its debased counterfeit minted from a mere reluctance to connect with others. You know what I mean? Review: And so begin the antagonist's machinations. - I feel conflicted about Nadeko. She's a perfectly decent character, but I absolutely hate her as a person, mostly for the reasons various characters outline in this book. But I just can't get enough of how much is going on between the lines in this volume. The most glaringly obvious element of this book would be the lowercase i's, and though they seem heavy-handed at first, they mean more than you might think - Nisio sprinkled the clues in fairly cleverly, so if you pay close attention, you may not only see the twist coming, but you might also glimpse the overarching plot that dominates the rest of the series. In retrospect, knowing where this series goes, the structuring of which stories are told when is quite brilliant on Nisio's part. Getting back to this book, though, Nadeko's special style of narration worked wonders for the story, making it easier to appreciate her character (albeit not her personality) and the themes of the story. Heck, it even made me think more deeply about the nature of aberrations. Even if you don't like Nadeko, this is a quality addition to the series, even if Nisio didn't originally plan for it to run this long. Though there were a few typos. One character had a lowercase i where it didn't belong, and another character had her name misspelled once. How uncharacteristic of Vertical. Hopefully, this won't become a regular occurrence. At any rate, next is the story that broke me so hard I couldn't bring myself to watch anime for a week after I finished its anime adaptation. I'm looking forward to it. Review: 10/10 Read With HanaKana's Voice in my Head - The corruption of Nadeko had a truly amazing buildup, Second Season is going very well thus far.
