Better than the child prostitute volume but not by much.
This volume stars a girl called "Pizza Face." A normal fifteen-year-old with a crush on a teen idol and an acne problem. She's given a gun and descends immediately into bunny-killing insanity, complete with frothing from the mouth:
What do you say about art like that? I mean, what exactly do you say about art and characters like that?
Also, Noriko, the female lead, catches a fever and becomes even weaker than she previously was. She was already a damsel in distress from the start. Four volumes in, she has a fever and needs to be carried around by the boys...
The only female character with any sense of agency is the near permanently-nude child prostitute. Considering all the hype this series gets, I'm really just sort of disgusted by how it's treated every single female character thus far.
