Chapter 4: Evil Floats Up Like a Song
by Garon Tsuchiya, Nobuaki Minegishi, Kumar Sivasubramanian, Kathryn Renta
The man who is responsible for the imprisonment of the main character reflects on the deal he made to get the main character locked up for 10 years. The main character wakes up with Eri. They go to an arcade, have some fun there, get a bite to eat before she has to show up for work. He tries to decide while she is having fun playing an arcade game whether he should tell her the truth.
One thing: I wish more of these characters had names by now. It would make it a lot easier to describe what it happening if I knew what their names were.
Another thing: sometimes the dialogue gets extremely wooden. That’s a problem in my book. I can’t tell if the dialogue in Japanese was that bad or it is the translator that is responsible for the way it reads.
