The series is picking up and we’re meeting interesting characters. Some of who I liked but will never see again. Felt as though that was rushed pacing to show how “bad ass” The villain was. A tactic I think could have been executed better.

Hoping we get some more of this big bad. I do want to get some backstory for the Tou. They look cool and I’m never averse to learning the backstories of well designed characters. Regardless of if they’re villains or heroes.

Still riding this train and not getting off yet. The pacing could still use some work, but I explained that in my review of volume 1, so I won’t bemoan the point here.

OH MY GOD, I JUST DEVOURED KAGURABACHI VOLUME 3 AND THE HYPE IS ACTUALLY REAL! 4 STARS because the Rakuza Ichi auction setup is absolute PEAK, even if some of the middle chapters felt a little heavy on the flashbacks! ⚔️🔥📉 I was literally screaming when Chihiro decided to go through with that drastic plan—he’s risking literally everything to get the Shinuchi back!

The world-building in this volume is IMMACULATE—we finally meet Kyora Sazanami, and his "Storehouse" power is one of the coolest things I’ve seen in manga recently! 👺🏯 The family drama between Hakuri and his brother Soya is so brutal and emotional, it had me clutching my chest! 😭💔 And don't even get me started on Hiyuki—the "Flame Bone of the Starving" is such a badass skill, she’s officially a favorite! The action sequences are giving total John Wick energy with that noir grit! 💥🎥

It’s a solid 4-star because while the art and tension are 10/10, the pacing sometimes slows down just as things get spicy! 💤⚔️ If you’re ready to see if Chihiro can reclaim his father’s fabled katana, go grab it at Crunchyroll or Amazon and join the mission! EVERY DAY I WAKE UP WITH FRESH HATRED. ✨⚔️🔥📉🌑

I think this volume was good but after reading 2 back to back volumes of peak this just wasn't quite as good as the other 2 volumes. That being said they did introduce the Sazanami clan and Hiyuki who are both sooo cool and amazing. I did love the ending and think the next volume will be another masterpiece peak volume so I can't wait.

Dios mío, pero que desturque. Casi me da un infarto cuando Chihiro sede a Enten, pero gracias a dios mi hijo es un genio y ya tenía plan.

Veremos como termina el esperado Rakuzaichi!

Characters-wise, a new character, Hiyuki, is introduced! She's so badass, and she seems like a type who cares about her pride and discipline. Chihiro is consistently reminded of the conflicted intensions of the sacred blades his dad created by other characters, which is interesting. I'm kinda puzzled by why Chihiro trusted the Sazanami guy (Hakuri) so easily, like I know he's being portrayed as a reliable character even with his individual scenes, but they'd really be troubled if he was just bluffing. Considering how the head of the Sazanami clan is super chilled, I just wonder how he planned ahead for the arrival of Chihiro! (this was for the first half)

I really admire how the fighting panels are done! The artwork is very clean and brings to an active form. But I feel like some drawings need to have a detailed touch. For example, some characters' faces look a bit bland, and this sometimes makes me go uneasy with reading, while the storyline proceeds to tense up.

Now, for the story, the plot has so much retelling of predecessors to make us understand more about the lore, and I love how easy it is to follow these fantasy elements! In this volume, Chihiro gave up his Enten, so WOW WOW I'm looking forward to the next chapters! It's a great story of vengeance. Can't wait to see Hiyuki in action again because she seems such an entertaining character, and so is Char! Also, I need more of Mr. Shiba's own stories (I'm sorry but his name sounds hilarious, so I couldn't take him serious in the last volumes.) Really love how this story is progressing!!

Still relentless, but I do hope that this series starts to dedicate a little more time to developing the relationships between main characters. As fun as the fight sequences are, it can sometimes feel like the story is rushed from one fight to the next. I feel like Char sort of got left behind in this volume.

Que tortura esperar nuevos capítulos… Chihiro me encanta y Hakuri es un personaje precioso con una historia muy triste! Pero tengo por seguro que esos dos harán un buen equipo en el futuro, tienen gran potencial!

I'm still being entertained by this series, a sort of mix of John Wick, magic swords, and with this volume, Ocean's 11. I'm getting used to the scene cross-cutting, which I'm sure will work better in the eventual anime. I'm also getting comfortable with the large cast of characters, which is added to in this volume. Nicely detailed drawings with good action and fight layouts.

Lots of setting up this volume with new characters and more information about the auction. Some pretty good action in there, but I know it’s about to GO DOWN—especially with the return of cloud gouger!?!?
