8.5/10
This was a really cool, solid volume. There was kinda a switch/ change that happened in volume 4, and that took a little while to adjust to that change, but now that I've adjusted to it, I really enjoy the direction that it's going now. Can't wait to see what happens in the final volume!

mysterious tense slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

Meh.... more logic back and forth. More off trying to outsmart the other.... more of the same boring boring logical theoretical strategic nonsense. 

Wasn't bad but wasn't great either. I miss the originality from the first volume.

The series starts to flounder and shows signs that it should have ended quite a few chapters ago.

Mucho más detalle del que recuerdo en el anime, aunque me da que las 5* se quedaron en los primeros tomos, antes del primer desenlace.
Igualmente esta visión del mundo era algo que me faltó en el anime y que agradezco de un manga que hasta hace 1 tomo mostraba que el anime era un calco, incluso en los diálogos. Al fin se puede ver algo más...
