86—EIGHTY-SIX, Vol. 6: Darkest Before the Dawn by Asato Asato

dark emotional hopeful reflective sad tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

5.0

Still the best 86 volume even after perhaps my 3rd or 4th read-through. The slow build-ups, especially during Vol. 4 and 5, were all for the well-crafted conclusions in Vol. 6. The character developments, especially Shin's, is close to perfection. And boy did I not cry soooo much!!!
