Fun alien horror, and a terrible love interest

The second volume of the series is more fast pace all the way compare to the first volume. I overall had some fun with the wackiness and brutality with a cool final battle at the end. The new character is a welcome addition and the pacing was nice for the most part. The narrator was also solid, for the most part.

Some of the negative is how quickly they speed run what happen in between the first and second book and just quickly explain what happening now instead if getting a solid foundation of the world building.

The narrator is good for the most part but her sound effect and screaming is laughable.

The major negative that dissuade from continuing the series is the love interest Minato being terrible. Let put aside morality in a fantasy horror sci-fi story. I have no problem with the age different and there an argument that Rinyv never actually grew up, but the chemistry feel like a mom and a child half the time. It just Minato being annoying and getting angry at Rinyv half the time for legitimate reason and half the time because he want to whine about being treated like a kid that need protection due to being a kid that need protection. I wanted to like Minato since he is a weeb gamer, but his existence is enough for me to not continue with the story due to how unlikable he is.

Exciting!

It is action-packed as the first one! I also really enjoyed Rinyv's origin story and how much more empathic she becomes towards humans and starts to understand herself better. She is courageous and unique. It's hard to categorize this series, but it has a lot of horrific events and grisly imagery. It is anime inspired with dark, urban fantasy and sci-fi elements too.
