世にも奇妙な商品カタログ 2 ピッタリもらえる懸賞ハガキ・道の種他

It's been a year since I read the first volume. And I don't know whether it's me getting better at reading, or whether the stories were a little better, but I enjoyed this book more than the previous one.

Here are my scores by story:

• Pittari moraeru kenshou hagaki『ピッタリもらえる懸賞ハガキ』3.5/5
• Michi no Tane『道の種』3.5/5
• Furigana Mushi 『ふりがな虫』4/5
• Kiokuryoku suitorigami『記憶力すいとり紙』3/5
• BAD END label『バッドエンドラベル』5/5
• Kin'un Candy『金運キャンディ』4/5

Pretty much all the twists were good this time! I especially enjoyed that several of them were self-inflicted, with one being really well deserved.

A bit harder than the first volume and more packed.

Fully furigana?: Yes (It's a Tsubasa Bunko)

Continuing the same style as the first volume, short stories about weird products.

There's some development about the recurring characters at the beginning and end of the book, which gives you a bit more insight of the flow and objectives they have, without still giving you many details.

All stories had a twist, which is always welcome to keep you hooked until the end. There was one that I didn't enjoy as much, but I'm unsure if it was because it was a bit harder on vocabulary, I didn't find the story itself interesting, or I didn't connect much with the protagonist.

As the previous book, I'll disclose my rating/enjoyment, based per story.

• Pittari moraeru kenshou hagaki『ピッタリもらえる懸賞ハガキ』5/5
• Michi no Tane『道の種』4.5/5
• Furigana Mushi 『ふりがな虫』3/5
• Kiokuryoku suitorigami『記憶力すいとり紙』5/5
• BAD END label『バッドエンドラベル』5/5
• Kin'un Candy『金運キャンディ』5/5

Conclusion: Thoroughly enjoyed this book as well, and I'm very glad I stumbled upon this rather unknown book series. Looking forward the next one!
