Today's post is on Yurara, vol. 2 by Chika Shiomi. It is 200 page long and is published by Shojo Beat. The cover has the three main characters on it looking at the reader. The intended reader is someone who likes ghost stories and other normal shojo tropes. There is no foul language, no sex, and very mild violence in this book. The story is told from third person close of Yurara. There Be Spoilers Ahead.
From the back of the book- When Yurara's guardian spirit picks up a ghostly stalker, she vanishes, leaving Yurara to deal with the paranormal pervert on her own!
Review- This volume is more about Yurara dealing with her feelings than any supernatural trouble. The perverted spirit does not get dealt with in this volume but we get to see a different side to Mei as he is being haunted by a first love. Yako does not do much in this volume but give some background information about the love and how she died. So this volume is on the one hand very slow because it is about character development and not about defeating spirits but on the other hand it was interesting to learn more about Mei, his family, and the world where spirits still live so close to humans.
I give this volume a Four out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I bought this manga with my own money.
