Review:
There's a big show down with Ataru in this volume, who's hoping to
take Kyutaro unguarded. This doesn't work out how he wants, but it
definitely opens the way for them to actually get to know Ataru and
find out what, or who, has lead him to this.
After that, there's a little reprieve for Kyutaro and Fumi, as they
get massages to work through their physical and mental aches.
Fumi gets a message regarding Ataru, and so her and Kyutaro go to
venture into his mind, knowing they're walking into a trap and yet
unable to deny doing it. They fight two tough enemies, and Fumi
struggles with her inner selves, until they come to the real issue.
Ataru has been mistaking Fumi for someone else, for his supposed
Black Queen, and now Fumi has to face her own Black Queen in order to
move forward. It's a big risk, but she has to overcome it.
I'm curious how this battle is going to end, both because it could be
really bad, and because I'm wondering how it's going to be handled.
Psychologically, there's a few different ways they could take this
black queen plotline.
This series is so intense, and I'm really enjoying it so far.
