You and Eisuke are now engaged but you have a long way to go to strengthen your relationship. Just as you're enjoying your newly engaged life, the auction managers decide to split ways. You feel insecure with this sudden change but Eisuke couldn't care less of their departure. The auction proceeds as planned when Eisuke surprises you by putting the auction itself to sell?!
Just when you think life can't get any lonelier, Eisuke takes you back to Japan in the middle of the night without an explanation. You're bothered when he starts acting strange and won't tell you what's going on.
You realise something's not right and set to find the answers yourself. You're depressed when he won't rely on you. Will you take this and stand down?
His Personality:
While Eisuke is still the same as usual, he's much more secretive and overprotective of you this latter half of the season. He still keeps most of his emotions to himself so you always end up guessing accurately how he feels.
He's just as upset as you are that the auction managers have split up but won't admit to it. Even when you ask him to get everyone back together, he's too stubborn to call them. Even when he's having trouble, he won't call them as for help.
With the MI6 watching both of you, it has caused him to be on edge and secretive. That's why he didn't want you to leave the hotel without him or without a bodyguard. He didn't want you to worry and tried to keep you close so nothing would happen.

Overall Opinion:
I found it interesting that the second part of the season mirrored Eisuke's initial statement where nothing changes after they get married. ~ Well, they're not married yet... ~ But everything that happened changed drastically and neither Eisuke and the MC could handle the sudden change. So I found that interesting.
In this half of the season, Eisuke is a lot more stubborn and seems just a little bit more helpless than previous. He doesn't tell the MC anything that's going on because he's worried the MI6 would get violent if she knew too much. His inability to ask the MC (or the others) for help causes a rift between you and he uses sex as a way to avoid facing his issues or to take out his frustrations. 😔
I think Eisuke knows he's done wrong when he sold the auction without consulting Soryu and he doesn't know how to apologise for it. Probably, in his entire life, he's never apologised for a single thing because he has so much pride.
The same goes for asking for help. He usually gives out orders to the auction managers because he's basically their leader. Now that they've broken up, they don't need to follow his orders but they will come to help him if he asks (or if you ask them).
Before, the MC learns to put her faith and trust in him to solve the situation himself. So while she has her insecurities, she knows he's capable of overcoming any situation. And while she doesn't understand why he takes her back to Japan or his strange behaviour, she still puts her faith in him.
But now they are engaged and about to become a family, she doesn't want to take him for granted and just sit back for him to solve everything himself. Seeing him all stressed out and exhausted from trying to solve things on his own, she wants to help him and not just do everything he says blindly.
This season, I feel the MC has become a little more clever and not as naive as she was before. She's caught on that something is causing Eisuke to be on edge and why he won't tell her anything ~ Honestly, if she didn't pick up on this then she's the worst MC ever 😫 ~ and she's more determined than ever to be useful to Eisuke whether he likes it or not.
The MC makes Eisuke understand that while she's ready to support him anytime he needs her, she doesn't want to just follow behind him but stand next to him as he's equal 👫.
Now that he's come to understand where her 'rebellion' comes from, he tells her what's really going on with MI6 and why it's been stressing him out. The situation turns out complicated for him, so the MC takes matter into her own hands and turns to the auction managers for help. She comes up with a plan to help Eisuke be at an advantage thus saving him for the first time.
This is one of the highlights and rarest occasions where the MC is clever and cunning ~ something she learnt from him ~ and actually saves Eisuke's butt 😆. I mean, by now you must have learnt a thing or two from your fiancé about cunningness.
In the end, Eisuke starts to acknowledge her strengths and her cunningness to stand as his equal. But I agree with him, she still has a long way to go. From this, I feel their relationship is getting stronger and it has improved. The only probably still lies with Eisuke and his willingness to communicate with the MC.
Overall, I really liked where the plotting was going just not the whole secrecy thing. It really took up most of the story. What really saved it was the MC's persistence to get Eisuke to understand her willingness to help him and see her on equal standings as him. She's changed a lot and has become a lot smarter. So I definitely recommend this 👍. Happy playing!
Overall score: 9/10
