I’m kinda glad she did though, because I don’t think I could’ve dealt with both Natsume sisters having long hair like that.
Many things happened in this volume. Many awesome things. We get to see people being fed to Soichiro’s dragons so he can steal their power, one of them having something like deer legs, and she seems like kind of a cool character who may be sticking around. We get to see a total bitch with the ability to control people through ki get punched in the face like she deserves, and we get to see Takayanagi being protective of his little brother, which is odd and also cool.
One of the best scenes in the series thus far, hands down, happened at the end of this volume though. The reunion between Maya and Soichiro was so touching that I fell in love with this series all over again… and I was already pretty in love with it.
I know I mentioned something about the series being tightly plotted before… but I think starting next volume we get another flashback, way into the past, where Aya may or may not be caught. This may have something to do with the 100-year-war people keep talking about as of this volume… and I have my doubts about this part being necessary, but maybe I’ll be totally shocked. We’ll see, I probably will be. I need more Maya and Soichiro moments, though.
