Another engaging volume. I love how Fujimoto uses panelling to enhance fighting dynamics and to create remarkable scenes.

For me, this is where Chainsaw Man really starts- absolutely fantastic emotional beats (easy revenge, Reze's arc starting, Aki's relationship with Angel) all mixed together with beautiful panel framing and art. The main theme of family and control also starts to pick up here and it's wonderful.
