This is a very strong volume. I really only dinged it because of the manner that volumes are ultimately segmented out. The entire elaborate cruise ship plot that took up the last volume gets wrapped up here. It would be so much more impactful if it was all in one volume. The follow up chapters here are all really well done but they’re fun one offs rather than another massive multiparter. At least it brought out some fun new pairings like Franky & Fiona leading a story. I gotta say though that some of the art in this volume is simply among the best of the entire series. Part of me wants to bump this volume up to 5 stars but it’s not actually quite there. It’s still another great volume in this series.
