Review:
This series is so
fun.
Seki is, of course,
continuing his game antics in class. He creates more in-depth war games with
chess pieces, tries palm-reading, goes fossil and gold hunting in his desk. He
tries driving a car on his desk, even making detailed licenses; has a tea
ceremony; makes a soundtrack to a book he made. We see the robot family that
Yokoi is protective of.
Now more people are
getting dragged into it. One of their classmates still thinks him and Yokoi are
in a serious relationship. Then a classmate inadvertently barges in and ruins
something Seki had made. They get in trouble by the teacher.
They’re doing more
things outside class, too. They have a fight in the snow, where Yokoi protects
a bunny Seki made. And Yokoi meets Seki’s little sister, who wants his
attention. His little sister is going to turn out just like him, too, clearly.
This is a very
light-hearted, episodic school-life comedy. It’s fun to read, and I enjoy
finding out what Seki is coming up with in each episode. The amount of work he
puts in his classroom shenanigans are impressive.
