Now Takamichi is in high school and an active Hunter. Snow and Night can't wait to attend school in their human form to “protect” her. But are they ready to go off leash...?

What Will I Miss?:
- The art. It's rather pretty.
- The story--where it went and how it went there.
- The characters--I love them, especially Snow and Night. And I'm going to miss them a lot. I will probably re-read this just for them.
Re-readable?: Average to high, probably. Yes.
Review:
I’m honestly a
little confused about the ending. Probably mostly because I don’t really
believe that what happened did, or because I really want it to, but don’t think
that it actually did. What actually happened?
There was the whole
horrid mess with Yuki, then a horrible thing happened with Snow and Night, and
it seems like some of that was fixed by the end, but was it actually? It seems
like Takamichi is happy at the end, either way, though, so I’m glad about that.
The other characters are all in better spots. I still wish I’d gotten to know
Takamichi’s father better. I feel like there was so much more still to explore.
I don’t know, I’m
iffy about how I feel about this.
Either way, I really hope that VIZ picks up another
of Tobina’s series, because I know there are several, and I want more of hers.
