![]() How did they remove Chameleon's seed from Kimihiko? It wasn't something that could be removed easily (because he wouldn't have been running around, hurrying to find a way to revive Siesta as he didn't have much time left because of ingesting the seed) but right at the beginning of Volume 5 he is miraculously free from the seed and it is mentioned only once that it was removed. ![]() Not to mention Volume 5 is full of plotholes: ![]() HOWEVER, I haven't heard or read where romance target was changed blatantly to the point it was plain obvious to the readers that the author didn't put much thought into it. Now I do know that this type of thing is not new mystery novels can sometimes change to a completely new direction with their objective to make readers realize that they were completely fooled until now and their previous assumptions were all incorrect and it was a deliberate trap by author. The earlier volumes seemed like a total lie. But suddenly volume 5 came in and Bam! Everything shifted to focus on Siesta as the main heroine. The MC seems to have overcome his feelings for Siesta and starts looking at Nagisa romantically. Nagisa and MC had lot of heartwarming moments and slowly their romance was developing in each volume to the point that it was even visible to others in volume 4. Heck, even Siesta in earlier volumes had herself said that Nagisa has something that she doesn't have and that Nagisa would surpass her, and even chided MC for stop chasing after her (Siesta) and instead look towards his new partner (Nagisa). Throughout the first four volumes, Nagisa was projected as the main heroine, she had more character development than anyone else, had monologues in almost every volume, and had most screentime of all other girls (obviously). This took me by surprise, and not in a good way. Nagisa finds herself acting as substitute detective, with a seemingly reluctant MC as his assistant to grow into a real, ace detective which could even surpass the former deceased detective and their journey to reach it, or at least that is what the first four volumes suggest the story is heading to.Īnd then comes the plot twist in Volume 5: However, the charm point of this novel is how everything happens according to how Siesta already predicted and she had already prepared counter measures for the same, even one year after her death. Needless to say, the MC does his job as assistant to the new detective as well as he had done with Siesta. If Siesta is the one who solves cases using pure logical deduction, then Nagisa is the one solve the case through pure intuition and human emotions. Nagisa on the other hand, is polar opposite to Siesta. Though he has been with her for three years, he blatantly denies to have any feelings for her. The MC is what you'll call a male Tsundere who always finds himself to be performing the straight guy act. True to these words, Siesta indeed proves herself to be worthy of it. One of Siesta's famous line is "An ace detective solves the case before it happens". The gears of fate start to turn once again as he is forced to face the past he has left behind while tackling the mystery surrounding Natsunagi and other girls and their connection with Siesta?! One year later, Kimihiko, now 18, who has given up living that turbulent life after Siesta's death, finds himself once again being pushed onto his previous job as an assistant when he is confronted by his classmate Nagisa Natsunagi who wants him to find out about the donor of her heart. However, all this comes to an end as "The detective is already dead". Their adventure continues for three more years as they tackle threats to entire world from a mysterious organization. more> (codename) who calls herself and is roped into being his assistant amidst their first meeting on a plane hijack. His life changes when he meets a girl Siesta. ![]() The MC is Kimihiko Kimizuka who is a magnet of all sorts of trouble probably being "loved by trouble" is better term for him. ![]() And yet, it is fairly interesting for such a variety. This novel is a hodge-podge of sci-fi, romance, alien lifeform invasion, revival, fantasy and lots of other genres besides mystery. Secondly, this is going to be a long rant so ignore it if you wish to. First of all, this story isn't all about a mystery genre novel. ![]()
