Not as interesting as the first volume. The underlying story had some interesting potential, but none of the characters were fully fleshed out, and the actions scenes were almost impossible to follow; too much focus on stepping it up from the first volume rather than turning out a solid story. ( )

The 2nd vol in the manga adaption of the Vampire hunter D novels didn't grab me as much as the first vol. I think the main problem i had was that the story seemed to jump around a lot. It seemed that they were trying to go for mystery with the big reveal at the end but to me it fell through. Everything was answered in the end but the journey there could have been streamlined a little better. however even with the problem with the story i still enjoyed it. The art was fitting and i did like the dichotomy between the nobility and the humans as in this case the humans seemed to be the more barbaric of the two wile the nobility even though not directly shown seemed to be the more compassionate even though there actions would lead to tragedy. Overall not as good as vol.1 for me but still enjoyable ( )
