Awww this one had a ton of heartwarming moments which I totally did not see coming.

That first fight with Ju Fa and Tao Fa, I was expecting at least two of them to die, but I'm so glad it ended on a happy note. The Aza brothers rock. idk how many times I've said it by now.

Rien choosing to invade the mainland was something I never saw coming. I was hoping they all could just make it out of the island and live happily ever after but oh well. If this means we'll get to see Yui sooner, I'm on board with it.

Shion and Nurugai aaaahh very cool, showing his traumatic backstory tricking us into thinking he's gonna die getting his revenge like all badass heroes do, only for Nurugai to come in and save the day, I love her sm protect this child. The way Tenza plays such a big role in their lives even after his death ~~so true besties, me too~~

But the thing I was dreading the most happened, the Asaemons and the shinobi have approached my beloved children and I'm genuinely scared for their lives. Shugen freaks me out more than Lord Tensen which is saying something. I pray this ends well

'Hell's Paradise' Volume 9 is jammed packed with action and ends on quite the cliffhanger. It's interesting to see the character progression between the different criminals and executioners. With the next antagonist finally encountering our protagonists in this volume, I can tell that the next volumes are likely to be action packed as well. I was a little disappointed that there was less time with Gabimaru in this volume though I do really like the other characters so it was still engaging.
