Story
---------------------------------------------------------

Moving on Volume 3, I opened the first page with no hesitation. Without any disappointment, the first page appeared to be the arsonist showing up, but mostly importantly it has a little ecchi content.  Koguchi kun returned as a villain instead of our friendly old friend with Ogami. He now showed no tolerance toward any others, but to seek for violence and slaughter. He even stated, "The reason why people can't tell you the reason to not kill people is actually because everyone has the desire of wanting to try the taste of killing somebody at least once".

As Koguchi kun was threatening Sakura, he used the puppy as a sacrifice. I found this scene as a little bit sexual when Sakura was tight up and stept by Koguchi with his foot. It really stunned me when the boom around puppy's neck exploded in the corner of the building. It is just usually for the author to eliminate a character with no dramatic conflict and significance involving the character itself.

As it turned out, we were all tricked by Kamijyo. Ogami appeared to be standing right beside the corner. It was the point where Ogami oddly turned into a saver. His appearance led Koguchi into frustration which result in Koguchi used all his planted boom in the surrounding building as weapon against Ogami.

Ogami of course managed to avoid Koguchi's attack without problem with his ability to control flames. As Koguchi fell into despair, Ogami handed his hand to him. Ironically, Ogami burned him into ashes when Koguchi gave him his complete trust.

After the chaotic incident was solved, Ogami suddenly collapse. Just when Sakura was left into this confusion, she answered Ogami's ringing work phone. Shockingly, it turned out to be Kanda Sensei, their school teacher was on the phone.

Impression

---------------------------------------------------------

I was amazing by how Kamijyo connect the event by the use of irony, intensity, and mystery. The use of terms such as "that person" made us question the possibility of a large organization behind the events. The unanswered questions turned into mystery, and it successfully dragged us into the story. The ending ended with school teacher was the one handing down the missions could lead the story to series of paths. It engaged us to look more into the events as we question mystery.
