By Buncololi and Kantoku. Released in Japan as “Sasaki to Pi-chan” by Media Factory. Released in North America by Yen On. Translated by Alice Prowse. I do feel that this series might have a conclusion in mind, but it really is meandering towards that conclusion, to the point where I was actually a little bored somewhere in the middle of this volume. Which is surprising given it’s an isekai-lite book, and I usually tend to prefer those. For the most part, the bulk of this book is spent integrating Type Twelve into the main cast, which has Futarishizuka and Sasaki making decisions that make sense in a “we’re trying to save the world” sort of way, but narratively in a book makes them sort of terrible. It doesn’t help that... The post Sasaki and Peeps: Fake Family Formed! ~The Youngest Daughter Dreams of a Warm Family in This Hodgepodge Household~ first appeared on Manga Bookshelf.
