That cliffhanger!!! Why?!?! 😭😭

Amazing Volume! Jinn and Kleene finally got so more backstory and also development. I'm glad to see all the Characters and their Ether Gears evolve! That cliffhanger tho...

[Y.]

The ending really isn't the best place to stop reading... but now I guess I understand why characters often wonder about the next volume in other mangas... Anyway, I can say that, overall, this series is better than the few others I have been reading. It follows a timeline and keeps developing the plot without dilly-dallying. It adds an interesting twist to some cliche concepts and presents them in a good way. However, there are some very unrealistic things in this series that constantly give me the urge to roll my eyes while reading. I guess reading manga and light novels is just not for me, huh?

I did say in another review that Mashima has his way with cliffhanger but wow… I hope sister is okay. Something I also noticed in this new series of his is the way darker path he takes compared to Fairy Tail. Yes there’s still morals such as friendship but I feel like the main antagonists are way more evil and like just feels the "antagonist" slot. Which can be a good thing to help for the development of the protagonists but it can also be considered as a lack of characterization. Either way this volume was full of emotions!

I do love that Jinn and Kleene got so much development and that is one thing I will give to most of these fights with the Ocean 6 is that while the members are kind of generic as we really do not learn much about them but each one does have a good conclusion as each member does get a huge power up. We also learn more about Oasis and Laguna as to why he left the group and joined Drakken Joe.

4/5 I’m really enjoying this arc. More big battles here including a neat back story chapter about Jinn’s past. Shiki and the others battle to reach Shura and save Witch. Meanwhile the Galactic Army and the resistance assault planet Nero 1.

Avec la pause que j’ai faite j’avais oublié comment c’etait bien. Ce tome en particulier est vraiment cool avec de bons combats et pour une fois le fan service a pas pris trop de place. Vu la fin, j’ai hate de lire la suite.

[Shannon · Rating 3 out of 5]

Read as individual chapters (150-158).

[Sheepy · Rating 5 out of 5]

Such an interesting volume for..... reasons.
But i will say that last panel was something, the next volume is going to be one hell of a battle!

[zy忍 · Rating 4 out of 5]

Overdrives and Shicca blue balls.

[David Doel · Rating 4 out of 5]

This volume was good, but not up to the caliber of Mashima's best.

[Olivia · Rating 5 out of 5]

That ending is stressing me out, I don't want anything bad to happen to my favorite character Witch. I Please, please don't die on me!! (⁠ ⁠≧⁠Д⁠≦⁠) What's going to happen next? I really need to know...

I know it's his style... but the sheer amount of unnecessary ecchi, dear lord.

[Rachel · Rating 5 out of 5]

Gawd older Shiki! I love how we're seeing a little bit more and more of our girl Rebecca and her abilities. There's so much to unpack with this one. So many emotions felt with all the battles.
