Ouch. This was brutally axed, far worse than I'd expect. Seems like Honna Wakou's newest series just didn't attract enough attention.

Unfortunately, it's understandable. I'm a big fan of her works, but once volume 3 hit, one thing was obvious:

She didn't have the clarity on how to lead the plot into something as suspenseful as her previous works.

The premise was and IS interesting. The characters, despite being a bit copy-pastey from previous works like 'Nozoki Ana' were fine enough. The story flowed well in the first two volumes.

And then bam, it just fizzled out. I couldn't care in any way for the conflict or possible resolutions. ... Even the spicy factor felt artificial and forced. Compare this to the earlier volumes of 'Kaikan Douki' or 'Nozoki Ana', heck even 'HadaCamera'. They're way more intense and imaginative.

Volume 5 of 'Futari Haishin' was one of the worst cases of clear axing I've seen. Jumbled, atrocious, filled with nonsensical 'resolutions'. It felt bad to see this end in such a manner, but frankly maybe it's for the best. I hope Wakou-sensei takes some time to rest and cook up something interesting for her next series. Because we damn know she can make top tier smutty drama.
