it makes slightly more sense than its prequel, but not sufficiently to actually be good. even though i knew the two main characters from before, i still didn't give a damn about them, and their love story felt at best lukewarm to me. steve behaves like an idiot, not like the man of brilliance he is alleged to be. this is of course a common problem when mangaka don't do a lick of research on the world they try to portray.

and to ruin what little sex there is completely, the characters are emasculated by invisipeen.

I don't know if it's because the manga is based on a novel but the story throws you straight into the action. You get the feeling you're supposed to care about these characters when you don't know anything about them and in the end I never got around to caring much. Much like in the prequel (Dekiru Otoko), people end up doing things that don't make sense at all, such as walking around drunk and alone when there's a death threat and one assassination attempt hanging over your head (which is nothing compared to spoilery things that happen in the last chapter). I could go on and on about the silly plot or how annoying I found Steve to be but I won't. The extras are worth a read, especially if you want another glimpse of Sagishima and Hokuto.

Well, well... I was waiting for the secuel of Dekiru Otoko which I really loved, and at last I can read it. Congrats to people of Fantasyshrine for such a hard work and such good results! Now this chapter is waiting for me...Yay!
