Story
This is the part of the series that really started to suck me in. While Eren can be a bit frustrating at time, I absolutely love Mikasa. She might be my new favorite female character in all of Japanese fiction.
We get a lot of depth added to both her and Eren and the nature of their bond in this one. We're also presented with a new wrinkle to the Titan problem which is left unresolved in the anime and a large part of why I decided I had to start reading the manga itself.
Overall I think this volume is a little more interesting than the first and if you enjoyed that one, you should like this one.
Artwork
The artwork here is once again uneven. I'm not sure if this is true of all manga or is just the case in this series, but the action can be really hard to follow.
I like the way the characters are drawn and you can really see that in full color version of the Anime series, but can be lacking in many panels of the manga.
Overall though I'm enjoying the story too much to care about it though.
