Kekkaishi #32
Kekkaishi, Vol. 32
By night, teenager Yoshimori Sumimura is a "kekkaishi"--a demon-hunter who specializes in creating magical barriers around his prey. By day, Yoshimori's got other demons to battle: an addiction to sweets and a seriously crotchety grandfather! Yoshimori's pretty neighbor and childhood friend, Tokine Yukimura, is also a kekkaishi, but their families are feuding over who is the true practitioner of the art.
The Ogi Family’s own mystical site is under attack, and even their ruthless heir Shichiro seems powerless to defend it. What are the attackers really after...? Then, having gathered reinforcements, the villains shift their focus to an even more ambitious target!
Yoshimori and Tokine have dedicated their young lives to protecting the Karasumori Site. Now its profoundest secrets finally come to light...

Urakai was attached! And finally I could know why Karasumori had such a strong power. All of things started because of Tokimori. I can understand his feeling but it would caused some bad things. Yoshimori will become victim to solve a problem that caused by Karasumori(Chuushinmaru). Nooooo!!!

Kekkaishi, Vol. 32 continues where the previous tankōbon left off and contains the next ten chapters (306–315) of the on-going manga series.
With the attack on the Ōgi family's site imminent, Shichirō Ōgi checks his defenses, with the powerful sorcerer Kaigen having set up a barrier around the mountain. Furthermore, Shichirō decides that he most protect the town as well, clearly influenced by Yoshimori Sumimura's words.
Unfortunately for Shichiro, Nichinaga Oumi himself arrives on the scene and begins mind-controlling the Ōgi family’s underlings. As the defenses around the mystical site quickly fall, Shichirō decides that the only option left is to cut off the peak of the mountain. Before he can do so, however, Yoshimori arrives on the scene.
Using his newly developed shinkai ability, Yoshimori prepares to destroy all the snakes on the mountain, thus freeing everyone from the mind-control. Unfortunately, the enemy decides to retreat at this very moment, revealing in the process that Nichinaga's true purpose was to steal an army for himself. In light of this, Shichirō's father decides to expel the taken men from the clan, prompting Shichirō to declare that he'll take them back himself.
Wasting no time, Nichinaga then takes his stolen forces and uses them to lead an assault on the Shadow Organization. The remaining members of the Council of Twelve spring into action, proving their power in the process. However, Nichinaga proves his own formidable power once more by mind-controlling everyone at the organization, with the exception of Masamori Sumimura.
This tankōbon is written and illustrated by Yellow Tanabe. War is imminent as Nichinaga Oumi attacks the Ōgi family fortress, mind-controlling most of their servants to be used as a makeshift army to attack The Shadow Organization, which he also manages to mind-control with the exception of Masamori Sumimura.
All in all, Kekkaishi, Vol. 32 is a wonderful continuation to a series that seems really intriguing and I can't wait to read more.

Ah, now it comes out. Karasumori spoilers omitted.
Y’know, I’m still not 100% sure I get the Shadow Organization plot. Like, I know what’s going on, to the extent that one can, but I’m not sure I get why that’s supposed to be a good story. The motivations of the main players are so vague, and so are the things everyone meant the Organization to DO for them. Like, the Night Troops are the only part that really makes sense to me; other than that, it’s like, why does your project exist, dudes? What the hell are you doing?
Often, that whole plot seems to’ve come from a different story entirely. The themes it’s dealing with just aren’t very relevant to the core cast, and neither are the pressures that are making it warp and collapse. I dunno, I have a loose theory that it wasn’t meant to go quite like this, and got out of hand when Tanabe needed an external antagonist after the Kokuboro was dealt with. Perils of serialization, and all that.
