(3.80/5)Very similar to the second volume and some character development
Fully furigana?: Yes (It's a Tsubasa Bunko)
In continuation of the other books, Nozome and Noeno continue filling the strange item catalog.
For the first time, there was a story that I didn't feel that it had a significant twist. Maybe that was the twist?. Also there was a one particular story that I didn't fancy much, as I found it a bit mundane. It seems to repeat over the last volume, where there was one that felt quite weak.
As I've doing with the other volumes, I'll give a quick score per story without going into spoilers.
- Timing no ii jidouhanbaiki『タイミングのいい自動販売機』5/5
- Tainai dokei (Nomu Type)『体内時計(飲むタイプ)』4/5
- Koe kawari Dial『声変わりダイヤル』4.5/5
- Tsukaretori ami『疲れ取りアミ』3/5
- Uso wo tsukanai nikkichou『ウソをつかない日記帳』5/5
- Sukima nyuujouken『スキマ入場券』5/5
Conclusion: The last two chapters, specially the last one with the character development and the story itself had me on edge, and I breezed through them. I really recommend for anyone that's a bit into this genre.


The second volume was a big improvement on the first one, so I had hopes for this third one, but unfortunately I didn't like it as much. My main criticism is that a whopping 4 out of the 6 stories felt rather mundane, with neither the scenario nor the item in question having any particularly interesting aspects.
And with that being said, my ratings by story:
I'm not sure if I want to read the next one. Definitely not anytime soon.
