me??? sobbing hysterically over tokito muichiro??? who could've possibly seen that coming??? (have a wild guess who my favourite hashira is.)

while muichiro is definitely one of the primary reasons why I enjoyed this volume so much (well, as much as you can enjoy the volume featuring his backstory but then giving you emotional whiplash with how he roasted a literal upper rank demon into submission... he's a child your honour), I can't deny how terrible the pacing of this part of this arc is. (this is also a critique I had while watching the anime.) I loved spending so much time with muichiro, but it took so much time away from the upper four plot that I'd completely forgotten about it at various points in this volume. I still enjoyed this volume for what it was, but just like how I'd give praise for the previous volume where it's due, I'm also going to give criticism where it's due.

n e ways I'm going to curl up in a ball and continue crying.

This is one of my favorite arcs of this anime/manga. The boss battles are fantastic, the demon characters are disgusting and fascinating, and the way that these chapters build up to new problems is interesting and satisfying.

Mitsuri was, at first, appearing to be a very annoying character, just another big-boobed anime lady character that I was prepared to dislike. But, actually, I think she's a ton of fun!! She doesn't have the same violent and tragic backstory many of the others do, but I think that's a little bit refreshing -- I don't think we have to have "the suffering Olympics" going on to make her an interesting character who I want to learn more about. 

Cool stuff!! Eager to keep reading!

This volume was more focused on the mist guy which I enjoyed because I like him as a character.

I would die for Muichiro.
Also can't wait to find out what's happening with all the strange marks that they are getting mid battle! Apparently it gets explained in the next volume according to reviews, so I am gonna read that one now!

loveee this volume!! amazing character development for muichiro, and it's great to learn more abt his and mitsuri's backstories as well (my precious bbys..). the theme of collective power is once again reiterated, and the art for certain fight scenes are great. however, i wish kyokko's defeat was longer - it currently feels too rushed - and the paneling was more varied. still, volume 14 is one w/ powerful emotional impact, and thats always sth to be lauded in my book.
