    All of them feature male protagonists who are reborn, while the female protagonists are not. The third book has two reborn protagonists, but they reconcile quickly. The last two books have two male protagonists; in the first, both male protagonists are reborn, and in the second, only one male protagonist is reborn. I haven't read much of the third to last book, so I'm not sure. The seventh book focuses too much on the male protagonist and is a bit fantastical, but the whole book is okay, just with a somewhat rushed ending.
