 Wow—what a rollercoaster of a volume! I gasped, laughed out loud, and honestly lost track of how many times I found myself thinking “WTF” while reading. This volume is packed with action, surprising twists, and character growth, all while moving the plot forward at just the right pace. It struck that perfect balance that kept me completely hooked from start to finish. 
I’m constantly amazed by how Noda masterfully shifts between intense, gripping moments and lighthearted humor, all without ever missing a beat. His ability to seamlessly flip the tone from serious to downright hilarious is truly impressive. Sure, there are moments where the plot armor feels a bit too convenient, but honestly, it’s easy to overlook because the story is just so much fun to read. I’m eager to see what wild turn the story will take next.
