The Empty Box and Zeroth Maria (light novel)
| If it's Kazuki & Maria's relationship that bothered you, then you should probably drop it. For example, on Amazon the final volume got either 5 or 1 stars (granted, Amazon reviews aren't exactly known to be reliable). Those who gave it 5 stars loved it for what it is, and those who gave it 1 star said that the story made a too strong shift toward romance. You still get to shit a few bricks, but their relationship is the driving force. |

| Not many people are negative toward romance, so I have no idea how to answer "Why it's highly rated when this has romance?" question. Volume 7 is definitely a romance centered volume, but it is definitely so unlike normal romance novel with many literal mindf*ck. For me, it is a very rare experience and a positive thing. For example, look at : http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1453857&pollresults=1 Basically many people are voting volume 7 as the best volume despite of it focusing into "romance". (FYI, I'm going to vote for 5 or 1, with 6/7/4 in third position, I just can't choose) It is obvious from the first post that you are seeking for the mind game aspect, which is strong in volume 1, 3 and 4. 5 and 6 still has some mind game material, but 7 is more about connecting the final dots and the mentioned "out of this world romance". It's safe to say that dropping it would be good unless you develop some endurance for romance in the future. |
