Brief volume synopsis: Volume 2 continues the downward spiral started for our hero in volume 1. His brother spends pretty much this entire volume sinking his claws further and further into him, getting the protagonist to accept their taboo relationship.
This volume felt quite a bit more slow-paced than the first volume, in all honesty; volume 2 is focused entirely on one goal, and while I'd say it achieves it nicely, I was hoping for a bit more plot development. A welcome surprise was the youngest brother 裕太 making a re-appearance into the main plot; I wasn't entirely sure if he was still living in the house after volume 1. Perhaps because of the protagonist's mental state, it can be difficult to tell the passage of time in the story, and details that the reader may want to know aren't necessarily his focus. I'm hoping we get more POVs from different characters down the line; the older brother in particular would be an eye-opening one.
There are only three volumes out at the time of writing, so I'll definitely be moving on to volume 3; I'm hoping events at the end of this book mean we'll be moving forward and that the protagonist will be forced to interact with someone who doesn't live with him.
If you read volume 1 (and I hope you did before reading number two), then you're already well-prepared for this one. Full furigana, no appreciable increase of text, etc.
