Lunar Legend Tsukihime 4
Posted: May 8, 2007 Filed under: Lunar Legend Tsukihime 2 Comments »This series continues to be quite good, much to my surprise. I’m not usually much into vampire… plots, but this one continues to have many interesting intracacies that draw in other aspects of the occult.
Not much happens in the way of headway in the search for Roa, but we find out about the mysterious glasses-wearing sempai and what she’s all about. There’s actually quite an epic battle between her and Shiki’s sister, who also has mysterious power, but her power still doesn’t really match Shiki’s death line vision.
Shiki also starts to have dreams about killing people, and when he starts to find the same people dead in the morning or the next day while he and Acrueid are out searching for Roa, he starts to suspect that perhaps he is the reincarnation of Roa, which would be totally awesome.
After Shiki’s sister and sempai battle, we don’t get too much more action until the end of the volume, and it balances out the awesome fights and plot/character development quite nicely. As I said, we don’t move forward much in the way of plot, but this volume really takes some time on the characters, which I loved.
I’m totally into this series, and it’s a shame we’re getting so few volumes a year due to being caught up with Japan.
