I remember when I first read this only 2 chapters were out in this sequel, which is probably why I didn't write a review. Turns out a few months later 2 more were TLed....and 8 years later, that's it.
So this picks up within a few months of the end of the original, I think. Takaya and Yurino are ridiculously in love and happy together but Takaya still had his doubts about whether Yurino is really not hurting anymore, and whether he deserves her after everything he did. This isn't due to some shoddy miscommunication, this is simply him being insecure and guilty, which makes complete sense.
All that is exacerbated when an old friend of his from middle school, Nogi, who knew the both of them in elementary school, calls into question how Yurino could possibly be happy. He insists the relationship can't be genuine, partly due to
his own guilt from not stopping the bullying when they were kids
.
Overall in the 5 chapters so far, It's a return to form from the earlier parts of the prequel. There's less angst/emotional turmoil, as there should be considering the developments in the previous series. Instead it's a logical continuation of their relationship and psyche. And it's so nice to see them so happy and in love and cute.
Really hoping some group picks this up, 8 years later, though I know chances are slim 🙁
EDIT: Sucks that the author and illustrator didn't make anything more...or if they did it's not on mangaupdates. someone message me if it turns out there's more out there?
