Another great volume in the series. Was cute when Kagome and Rin and Inuyasha made it back to the village and reunited with Kaede and Sango and Miroku. Also, Rin's love for food from the modern world cracks me up. I like that Sesshomaru and everybody grouped up to continue on to Kirinmaru, and then when they got there, it was exciting. Lots of battling, and... omg... Hisui! That whole part... damn. But, I loved the way it worked out, how Sessh helped the twins to learn a new power, and the little scene, where Towa runs and hugs him... and he's like... still at first, but then he pats her on the head!! Like... awwwwww. I bout died of the cute. Cutest thing that dude ever did, I swear.

Anyway, gotta wait a few months for the next volume, and that bites, but can't wait!

The battle continues and the fights are pretty intense. The girls are coming into their own in a big way. We have only two more volumes left in the series and the final showdowns begin the next volume. Such a cliffhanger.
