Slowly, story lines converge and we follow our protagonists as they find their way back to Kenji's school. Here they will encounter mysterious Dr. Yamane and finally come eye to eye with the mysterious Friend.

As one of the reviewers noted this volume acts more like a season 1 ending of any TV show. We follow all the characters and their uttering "I know who Friend is! It's..." only to switch to another party and their story line. It might feel like a filler but it does make sense considering that this was serialized manga and we are in the middle of the story.

I always get this feeling when reading collected volumes all at once - somehow it always escapes me that it took time to get to that specific point in story.

So all in all, not a bad volume, little bit slower than the other volumes but man what a twist at the end. Now I am truly puzzled how will story go on.

Art as always pure joy for the eyes.

I am sure interested to see how will the events develop further.

Highly recommended. ( )

Mostly an investigative volume, with a big wham moment at the end that could be a potential game changer for the whole series. ( )
