Does this volume stand alone or do I need to read the first one?

This volume is a direct continuation of the story and relies on the foundational character introductions and world-building established in the first volume. It is intended to be read as part of a sequential series rather than as a standalone entry.

Is there any connection between this series and the author's other works?

The series shares a thematic lineage with the author's earlier work, as the concept for this story evolved from a pilot one-shot titled My Hero, which was previously compiled in the author's earlier series Oumagadoki Zoo.
