while the swordsmith village arc is my least favourite of the kny arcs, I was still elated going into this because it meant more muichiro!!! and more genya!!! funny how literature works like that.
I liked how much slower this volume is in comparison to the previous instalments. while the action sequences are great, some of my favourite moments in the anime were these slower moments where we got to know the characters and the relationships between them outside of all the action - and I feel no different towards the manga. even that opening scene with the upper ranks was great even if I don't like some of them or don't know much about half of them.
furthermore, I really appreciate the mini comic where we learn why mitsuri wears the uniform she does. it's not because I hated mitsuri (anyone who does is going to face my wrath) or was bothered by her uniform while watching the anime (I mean, look at tengen's wives and nezuko's demon form; inosuke spends 98% of his screen time half naked; and sanemi has an open uniform - heck, even akaza has been topless every time he appears - so it's not unusual for characters to dress revealing in this universe) - I was just wondering why her uniform was more revealing than shinobu's.
