Sayonara Piano Sonata: Encore Pieces review

Satisfactory. This word is most befitting of this short sequel. It seems that many readers of the original novels have overlooked the existence of this hidden gem. I believe that the contents in this volume far exceeds the entirety of the prequel.

The focus lies on events after the main story taking place in the future. The character's development is the primary focus of the sequel as their mental development is displayed early on. This sequel attempts to tie loose ends and provide a conclusion to the main story. It far exceeds expectations as the characters who receive development are not limited to the protagonists but also other relevant characters. We, the onlookers, get to experience the state of mind of many characters and experience characters who come to realizations and partakes in changes.

The less important aspect is therefore executed in a worse manner; meaning that the story is subpar. It adds content by introducing a new character who seems to be generic at first but develops somewhat significantly. The issues lie in the execution of the story as it's in a similar fashion to what the prequel provides. It follows a redundant sequence and is predictable for the most part.

Being a sequel, it is difficult to implore you to read this volume without reading the prequel. If you have read the original novels, this entry is not a side story, but a sequel that succeeds in providing a conclusion. The character development stands out but the story focuses on mundane events and lacks in proper execution.
