I didn’t quite care for Ginji and Himiko’s parts in this volume but Uryu vs Kakei was surprisingly good. The art/choreography is cluttered as usual but the story told between them and Kazuki was great and has also been built up since the first few chapters of the arc unlike Ginji and Himiko.

So far this manga’s just average, the plots not too good! The arts the best part and I like the main characters 😁👌❤️❤️

Is that really Himiko's brother Yamato? More of Kazuki's backstory :) . More fighting against Lucifer's team members...I'm sad that Uryu's betraying them, but at least he joins Kazuki and Juubei again.

This volume picked up the pace. Lots of action and amazing battles. Great character development and backstories that tied into what was going on in the current timeline.
