“Past Heaven” is better then the prequel “.traeH”, but not much better.

The place with the most improvement is the art work. The art work is much crisper then the prequel one-shot, and the characters facial features are more defined. In some ways though one might not recognize the characters as Ayumu's hair style's changes since the first one-shot. I'd normally wonder why the style change occurred, but I also recollect how Ayumu looked to much like a character I saw another writer design and thus Ayumu's style is actually now the writer's own.

Characterization wise there are still problems. In this one-shot Ayumu and Yuu end up switching roles. Chipper Ayumu ends up with the angst ridden personality and Yuu ends up with a more perky personality. Yuu's attitude change can be explained by Ayumu becoming her friend, but Ayumu's is a bit harder to pin down. Her stalker attitude becomes quite manipulative and she shows a darker side. The way Yuu accepts the truth she finds out as well as the way Ayumu treats her after she rejects Ayumu's confesion.

This one-shot continues the mess from the prequel one-shot and makes it worse.
