I mostly like Kei and his grandfather, I love the Iceland setting, and I like the technology superpower. But in each of these books there's at least one panel of over-sexualizing women.
This volume expands on what is dangerous about Kei's little brother and adds a horror element to this series.

We’re finally getting into the nitty gritty secrets of Kei’s brother, Michitaka! Last volume just skipped over touching on his arrival in Iceland and it was disorienting enough I thought I had gotten the next volume mixed up, but no matter, we’re back on track and the story’s looping back to the detective theme it boasts. The art is gorgeous, as per usual of Aki Irie and I’m itching to see what the next volume has in store for us...

This series remains to be a strange yet enthralling out of place, slice of life intermingling with Kei's detective work.
This volume reveals events that lead up to more about his brother and suddenly these abilities simultaneously make sense but become all the more confusing.

I continue to be floored by how breathtaking this art is. The story is always intriguing and mysterious--and each volume seems too short! I love that it is set in Iceland and how as the reader we learn about the land and culture, as well as see the wondrous landscapes in the panels. This is an ideal read to me: art, story, and characters are just superb!
Ohohohoho, the plot thickens. I really really like the character of Michitaka. He's even more interesting than his brother and I'm excited to see that Irie isn't keeping the paranormal aspect only to the main character.
The other characters that were introduced here are also just as colorful - I love Freyja and Sigrun.
I'm glad this volume was a bit more "on track" as well; the tonal switch I experienced in the last one (read more like a traveling guide) was very grating.
