I'll never stop singing the praises of this manga. This volume deals with the fallout of an event on vol. 1, and the events that happen in the mind vault are so well done and touching. I love the message that someone may have done vial actions, and deserve to reap the consequences in some way, still deserve the chance to be heard. For someone to get down on their level, reach out their hand, and offer a branch of understanding -- maybe the tiny good of that person that has been pushed down into a microscopic bubble, and that branch is the only thing that will allow it to finally come out and be seen. On top of that, the fact that there are in fact two queens inside Fumi, and the scarier one turns out to be the calmer one that will do favors in exchange for recompense is a very interesting twist.
