This score is relatively the same as the first part of Kindan-Secret Garden. I also recommend those to read my review of Kindan-Secret Garden. This story as a continuation will only have a continued look at the characters.
I will first start with no growth in the characters. For those who read my first review and for those who may not have---I whinged over the fact that the anime writer who is good could have written a great characterization with great growth seen in both the Alpha male lead who can just anger you with his disregard of the female lead. Plus the poor way too typical Stepford Wife aspiration of the lead female. However we don't see that in this story, even though personally it was more enjoyable. There reached a point in the first story and the commencement of this story the lead male really had some issues he needed to out grow you do see a chance of that at the end. It's a small ember, but something to think about. Even though, throughout the writing of this one he is extremely overbearing and ruthless in his obsession/possession or what I have come to see as "twisted love."
The character problem relates to the story. This one was a bit rushed it felt at the end, while the first one was a bit more detailed but the situations did make more sense here and you come to actually like one of the main supporting characters while in the first he was bit too much. Ugh, let me be honest he's perversity is still too much; but he grew on me. I guess all in all compared to the first, the first one was far more romantic a storyline--->and I have hard time seeing much romance in the first one. ^_^
The art was of course exceptional, so nothing wrong there. Really well done. My enjoyment was definitely good. It was a continuation so nothing special but the ultimate conclusion of the storyline. So overall it was a good feeling. I think if you have no hang-ups about social issues and just read most of these things with indifference then you won't have a problem with this. If you have no hang-ups and looking for romaonce....it was a hard sell. If you have hang-ups of any kind, then it's most definitely not for you. I have my own, but none was found in this story. read more

They are both similar in the way that they both have a weak female lead with a handsome and possesive male lead who secretly loves them but does not show it appropriatly. They are both meant to be read for adults as they contain smut.

Recommended for the first Kindan, as well:
This is similar in various ways. It reflects what I said is found notorious in Yaoi's which this is. A rich male buys a weak individual. In this case it's a soft hearted boy who will do anything for family. In Kindan it's a young girl in need of love. Through "rape" or "reluctant sex" ---- or I have heard described in relation to work by Mayu Shinjo "concensual rape" (whatever that is! ugh!). This man of power and money dominates over their obsession in every way; particularly sexual... and calls it love. There are also issues of close friends developing feelings for their obsession and/or for the main male.
