This is my favorite volume SO FAR! It starts with a flashback of a young Gojo and Geto (and even Nanami aaaaa) on when they were still students and were given a really challenging mission. This is also when readers will get to know more of the iconic Toji! I definitely have a love-hate relationship with Toji. He's a really interesting yet freaking annoying character. Geto also has a deep characterization to explore and I can't wait to see more of his "change."

This volume had a LOT of surprises and cliffhangers! Trust me, it's still so surprising despite knowing it's a flashback and that certain characters in danger in this volume are "still" alive in Season 1. 

Absolutely LOVE this volume. I was FLOORED!
