Mikasa is one of the best and most complex characters in AoT, and is one of my top 10 favorite manga characters.
The action and flow is intense and leaves you craving for more.
The art is better in this volume than the first one, albeit still imperfect. Still not that big of a distraction.

I really relate to what seems to be the protagonist (I started the series at book 2, so I'm unsure if he is the protagonist. But still)
I love the art style and learned alot from it 
Showed differences in processings f grief and mikasa's background story was delivered very well. 
I loved the part where she put in her all towards fighting someone who put her life in danger not in the form of vengeance but in the form of I'm grateful to be alive, and I'm not dying now. I want to use that mindset in the athletic world, as I'm not very competitive in that sense
Highly recommend. Very unique concepts and world building.
the titan cannibalism concept and titan fighting titan concept was great for world building. I lovr that titans have their own conflicts, and I'm excited to learn more abt it in book 3 potentially.

I loved how Mikasa was featured more in this book. She was really interesting in the first volume!
