My favorite volume of the series by far. I can't express how much the decision Fumi makes, and how she came to that decision, means everything to me, who was once a child who grew up absolutely hating everything about herself. The themes of acceptance have always been present in the prior storylines, but this one -- thanking your previous self for doing the best they could in the situation they were in, and assuring them you're going to do your best going forward -- gosh, it just hits really hard. And of course, Fumi and Kyutaro growing even closer through this process is lovely to see. I also like the background relationship between Ataru and Sarara, I hope it continues to progress as well.
