## What is this series?

> **Summary**
>
> > 両親の他界…優しかった兄の豹変…独りぼっちで傷ついた少女は昔の兄の優しさを求め、“おにいちゃん”をレンタルする―――お金で。「レンタルでも、私は“家族（ぬくもり）”がほしい。」
> 
> > Her parents have passed away… Her kind big brother has changed completely… A girl, alone and hurt, in search of the kindness of who her brother used to be, she rents a “big brother”…for money. “Even if it’s a rental, I want family (warmth).”
> 
> Little Kanami has lost the warmth of family at home, following first the death of her parents, and second her once-kind big brother becoming distant and abusive. She lacks the warmth of friendship at school, where classmates either bully or ignore her. When things seem to be at their worst, Kanami meets Makoto, a young man whose kindness is exactly what’s missing from her life. Makoto, seeing a reflection of his own childhood in Kanami, offers a proposition: any time she’s feeling down, she can rent time with him as a big brother.

I’m not sure how good I am at judging difficulty but to me the difficulty in later volumes seems pretty consistent with the first one. There are some parts that seem a little more challenging similar to the school scene people seemed to struggle with in the first volume, and there is a bit of Kansai dialect starting in volume two but aside from that I felt like it was a pretty similar level, maybe a little harder in the later volumes.

I was really struggling with Kansai parts, but aside from that, I also think it was a similar level.

</div>

I’ll third @pyororon and @Aislin.

The difficulty doesn’t really ramp up too much, except for the introduction of a Kansai-dialect character who appears in a few chapters. He’s the sole reason I’ve split chapter 9 into three weeks, rather than two. (Ah, I somehow messed up the reading schedule chapter numbers. I’ll fix that.)

Aside from that, some chapters do have more complex situations taking place, but nothing too much more difficult that the harder parts of volume 1.

If you survive volume 2, it’s coasting all the way from there.

@ChristopherFritz

I was wondering. Wouldn’t the Volume 2 art fit better as the image in the top post?

</div>

I actually almost went that route, @WalterMeiren!

I originally planned to represent the current volume being read. However, there will be a separate thread for volume 2 specifically, which will use the volume 2 cover. Having the same cover page image on both the home thread and the volume thread can be confusing on where to post.

I’d considered using a different series artwork from the mangaka, but the home thread for other multi-volume series threads tend to show the volume one cover. ([example](https://community.wanikani.com/t/x/38875), [example](https://community.wanikani.com/t/x/38787), [example](https://community.wanikani.com/t/x/42545)).

Edit: Since the series is only four volumes, I’ve updated the image to incorporate all four. I think that should work for a home thread =D

Alright, I’ve decided I’ll join for volume 2!

I sped read the first volume (my very first book!) but I went so fast I’m not sure if it counted as reading or just looking at the pictures 😅 This time I’m actually going to make sure I understand the majority of what I’m reading and hopefully participate in the discussions.

Would anyone recommend I reread the first vol. in the meantime? I understood the storyline, but again, mostly due to the photos.

Have you read through the [volume 1 book club threads](https://community.wanikani.com/t/x/44659/)? If not, you can absorb volume one story details and grammar covered there.

For volume 2, we’re going in with a near-fully populated vocabulary sheet. I’ve added links for each chapter into the main post.

Want to look up words in advance? Check out pages 3–18 on the [chapter 6 vocabulary list](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tsJnmVxR1bRYmdmLyGn6DzRebPXG93sovPAxGa3lEJ4/edit#gid=858903982).

Volume 2 contains almost 500 different words and expressions. Counting different inflections (conjugations), it’s a whole lot more. Many of these words are returning from volume 1, but there are also a lot of new words in volume 2.

Looking at volume 2 on its own (without considering volume 1 vocabulary), here’s how many words/expressions will appear for the first time each week:

| Chapter | Week | Words | Percent |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Chapter 6 | Week 1 | 71 | 14.46% |
| | Week 2 | 48 | 9.78% |
| Chapter 7 | Week 3 | 63 | 12.83% |
| | Week 4 | 51 | 10.39% |
| Chapter 8 | Week 5 | 62 | 12.63% |
| | Week 6 | 46 | 9.37% |
| Chapter 9 | Week 7 | 42 | 8.55% |
| | Week 8 | 34 | 6.92% |
| | Week 9 | 26 | 5.30% |
| Chapter 10 | Week 10 | 22 | 4.48% |
| | Week 11 | 23 | 4.68% |

Hi! Does this spin-off book club have separate pages for separate weeks, or do we just post on this thread?

I’ll be putting up a Volume 2 thread in the next hour (very soon!)

All posts for volume 2 will be in that one thread.
