I was stoked to see a sequel to Hoozuki-san Chi no Aneki when it was mentioned on Vexed's blog. I really loved that series back in 2009-2011. So I rushed over to dl chapter 1 of the sequel and read it.
And...wow
It is different.
First chapter upped the sex by a moderate amount. It starts off like the first series (for the most part) but mostly changes when the "+ Imouto" part of it comes in. This takes place about 2 years (I think) after the end of the first series, and the characters are older now. Still, I was quite surprised, for example it ends with a character saying "I came a little..." Earlier in the chapter,
Imouto just gives Gorou a blowjob out of nowhere and then is going to have sex with him but Aneki walks in and stops her, letting slip that they've been having sex.
(This is an important development they've just timeskipped over. And it doesn't seem to match their behaviour int he first half of the chapter...)
! Later, Aneki strips and tells Gorou to come have sex with her to get Gorou back from Imouto, though it's possible she wouldn't have followed through.
But this was just the first chapter.
I held off commenting.
I wasn't sure how far it would go.
The second chapter really just ran with the sex. I mean, where the first chapter had one (maybe two?) sexual encounters, here they go a little crazy with it (though most is off-panel, as before). Aneki-Gorou, Aneki-Imouto (I don't really consider cousin-cousin to be incest, though. More like a pseudo-incest, especially as they see each other as sisters.)
I really just want to know what happened during those 2 years that made their relationship, personalities and attitudes change so much (thought his will probably never happen). Though considering the beginning of the first chapter, Gorou and Aneki's physical relationship had progressed but to a realistic degree during the first half...maybe it was simply the entrance of Imouto that brought out the sex to such a degree, which I guess would simply be poor writing on the mangaka's part. Even Misaki, in my opinion, has changed a bit too far. Mizuno is kind of the same, but still clearly different.
And then we see at the end that there's been a shitload of it off-panel that's barely been hinted at before.
Aneki and Imouto are keeping score of how many times they have made Gorou cum. o.0
This is just strange, as it's published in the same magazine so theoretically their target audience shouldn't have changed. But apparently it has.
As the translator said, it's got none of the cuteness of the first series. I'm enjoying it, but in an entirely different way.
EDIT: Maybe it takes place 3 years after... as it ended in 2011....Wait no. Gorou's still in high school.
