Ageha
Oh Ageha~ ♡♡♡
He finally decides to give his approval to Tatara and chooses to avidly stand by her side. She sees what being by her side actually entails, sacrificing and protecting her with his whole being. She is overcome with great anguish for the choices he makes to keep her safe.
He tells Asagi to wholeheartedly protect her and watch out for her. It's so warm, sweet, and gentle. This is what I remembered feeling from his volume.
Before her mission, she tells her crew her identity. They continue to rally with her and follow her leadership. Both Sarasa and Shuri turns a year older, she 16, he 18. And he is maturing with level headedness and humility. His soldiers see him as less impulsive and quick to anger.
Thrown into the North underground prison, she sees the Red King's cousin with his face. How will they escape?

Un très bon tome ! J'ai trouvé cette suite plus sombre que les précédentes, j'aime beaucoup que l'autrice montre les sacrifices qui doivent être fait pour la cause. Tatara a des réactions assez enfantines mais en même temps elle n'a que 15 ans donc c'est tout à fait compréhensible. Bref une superbe saga !

Synopsis:
After working together to save Okinawa from invasion, responsibility separates Sarasa and Shuri. Although the revelation of her true gender has not lost Sarasa her closest allies, a horrifying message from Tatara's envoys to the north has left her in shock.
My Thoughts:
After discovering what happened to Hayato and Shota, Sarasa, Ageha, Asagi and Nachi head to Kazuno to find out what became of Hayato. That is definitely not an easy place to be, but if Sarasa can convince them to ally with her, they would make some really great allies. I don't know if the people of Kazuno want that, though. Unfortunately, they end up throwing Sarasa, Ageha and Asagi into prison, but Nachi and Muratake are on their trail.
The prison isn't an easy place to be, especially with Sarasa being the only woman, though right now, she's still passing as a boy. In order to keep her safe, Ageha lets himself be used. Sarasa feels terrible about it, but Ageha believes it wouldn't hurt to have some of the prisoners on their side.
Meanwhile, Shuri is working to take his city back and meets with someone that he believes can help him. That meeting has shown just how much he's grown. That time in Okinawa was good for him. I think loving Sarasa has been good for him, too. I just wish he didn't feel the need to be a dictator. He did tell Yuna that he wants to make Sarasa happy, so he believes that is love. Mostly, he just wants what he wants and what he wants is Sarasa.
Back in the prison, things aren't looking so good for Sarasa. Someone just tried to strangle her, but why? She's been found, but what will happen to her now?

Basara may just be the best manga I've ever read - I am completely hooked. This volume was so great! The list of reasons why I love Ageha just keeps growing - reason #72: lots of men will fight to protect a woman, but it's a rare man that will offer himself up to be gang-raped by prisoners to protect a woman. I got tears in my eyes when he told Sarasa to close her eyes and cover her ears so she wouldn't have to watch. Ageha may have his dark edges, and a shady past, but he's a truly heroic character in every way; his odd mannerisms and habits just make him all the more mysterious, like a real superhero or something, only way more believable. Yeah, I'm really hung up on Ageha! Sarasa was brave as well, trying to protect Ageha by offering herself to the warden; I'm glad she got away though, her character is too straightforward to be complicated that way, especially with so many other problems twisting her into an emotional pretzel. Sarasa, Ageha and Asagi's descent through the bowels of the prison to rescue Hayato was really quite the epic adventure, very reminiscent of numerous myths in which the hero descends into the underworld to rescue a loved one or comrade. Really great book, really phenomenal series!

Nah inilah jadinya kalau seseorang seperti saya mementingkan cover diatas segalanya. Saya jadi nggak jeli dengan isi dari komik yang panjangnya ada 27 volume ini.
Setelah mencicipi volume 1, bisa dibayangkan betapa besarnya penyesalan sekarang karena baru aja tau kalo komik ini SANGAT BAGUS.
Sasara yang berubah dengan kesadaran sendiri menjadi Tatara, seorang perempuan berumur 16 tahun yang menguatkan diri dengan tujuan membalaskan dendam desanya yang hancur dan kakak serta ayahnya yang mati diakibatkan serangan dari Raja Merah. Sasara hanya bisa menjadi dirinya sendiri saat ia berada di Onsen yang kemudia benar benar tertarik dengan seorang pemuda humoris tapi juga kharismatik dan seenaknya sendiri bernama Shuri. Tipikal kan? Nggak ada yang aneh dari jalan cerita ini. kecuali kalau Shuri ini adalah sang Raja Merah.
Hebatnya lagi yang membuatku sangat sangat kagum, Yumi Tamura menguatkan ikatan mereka tanpa terburu-buru dan alur yang keren, bisa dibuktikan dengan terbongkarnya identitas Shuri sang Raja Merah di buku ke-5.
Tidak perlu ragu lagi, inilah lambang dari cover not worth anything. :D

OMFG OMFG Sarasa kembali dalam bahaya .....
Dan Ageha ... Ageha I lve you <3
Dia mau mengrbankan dirinya untuk di rape sama banyak tahanan laki" untuk melindungi Sarasa yang wanita. Gila aja para tahanan langsung menggila pas ada bau wanita ... Sangking lamanya mereka gak sama wanita sampai pada homo semua ...
Penjaranya nakuti banget kayak labirin ada tingkatan tingkatan tertentu ... Demi menyelamatkan teman mereka, mereka malah masuk lubang buaya.
Apa Sarasa dan teman temannya akan bertahan dan mampu keluar dari penjara bawah tanah itu? Dan apa sebenarnya rahasia dari pemimpin penjara ??

reread Nov 2024
*Original Review from Jan 2022:
I don't have much to say about this volume. I liked that it expanded on the relationship between Sarasa and Ageha a little bit. It was also interesting to see Ageha telling Asagi that he needs to start "getting serious about protecting" her and I can't wait to see how he develops as the story goes on.

この巻の後話のエッセイ全然分からなかった。まったく何も。
時々日本の記事が変な方角に行くので私は追いつくことできない。
前巻の反応はちょっと間違えた。浅霧は本当に朱里と仲良くしたいと言いたけどそれはちょっと間違えた。浅霧は誰かに彼の存在を認めさせたい。朱里が簡単に人と簡単に絆を築く、でも浅霧はそうじゃない。だから朱里に恨めて傷つけたい。
次読みたい！！！！
