Review:
This boy candidate, Susumu, takes all of the attention as he goes on
TV and announces to the world what's going on. This also gives the
government most of the information they need, and puts everyone on
the suspect and danger list.
Saki and Mirai have to be careful about their next steps from here on
out, and this causes some changes. At one point Saki proposes that
they both just run away, disappear so that no one can find them and
they don't have to do any of this any more. Honestly, it's the
smartest idea anyone here has had, so of course they don't do that.
The angels have a meeting in this volume. It still makes me wonder at
their motivation and what this is really about—but it also doesn't
seem to help anything? It's another interesting point how media and
technology is being used in this series. That's a definite theme
here, of how it's implemented and how it is affecting the course of
this competition.
I wouldn't say I'm rooting for anyone in this series at this point,
and I would even say I dislike all of them. I'm definitely not
rooting for anyone to win at this point. It's also definitely
starting to feel even more like Death Note, now that the
police are getting involved.
