“
After reading this, my feelings are very conflicted. I liked it, for the most part. I suppose the ending is one of those did-it-happen-or-not ones, but what happens just before the ending might invalidate it. The book stuck really closely to its core conceit, and I admire that, but merely writing a young-adult fantasy that seems like a CRPG and going no further with it seems like a waste of a good idea.
I don’t know. If I was being real snarky, I’d say “Hey! Japanese YA fiction is just like the American stuff!”
