I have read up to chapter 88, and I have to say it's a great read. A bunch of chapters felt unnecessary for me though, but maybe because it's difficult to read DeepL translated Japanese that I skimmed a lot of lines altogether and even outright failed to understand a lot of the dialogue.

How was the execution? I can't speak of the details obviously since a lot of it is incomprehensible, but the broad strokes? Masterful. You know how people don't want to know they're being manipulated while they're being manipulated? Here, after seeing the big picture, I appreciate the necessary hoops the author thought I had to go through to find myself almost at the end of the story.
I'm not sure if the volume coming out in April will be the last, but based on the current content and momentum of everything, I'm willing to bet it'd be the closer for this series.
