Kinda want this series to wrap it up. They go a little too slowly for my taste. But I'm not ready to pack it in yet, I want to see how it ends.
This volume covered more battles between the different peoples and a new spore mutation that's threatening to spread into the villages.

This volume felt a little more disparate than many of the others. Still great!

Nausicaa departs from the besieged town and heads south to find the answers to the mystery of the southern forest. Kushana and Kurotowa leave on a mission of their own - to steal ships to rescue her besieged Third Army. Yupa and company travel through the forest and meet with the crew of the gunship. A massive migration of insects has begun, drawn south by the artificial spores created by the Dorok scientists, possibly triggering a catastrophic extension of the miasmic forest called the daikasho.
Once again the story unfolds around a breath-taking action set-piece. From the appearance of a single flying insect to the vision of vast swarms filling the sky, Kushana's daring raid on her brother's camp under cover of the insect migration is a terrifying, exhilarating spectacle, but it's the slowly mounting dread of the Dorok mold as it grows and spreads, poisonous to humans and insects alike, apparently unstoppable and intelligent that heralds the coming apocalypse. If I read much past this point I can't remember it - I've no idea how it all works out. Under the dazzling visuals and extraordinary storytelling, it's all getting rather sombre and grim. What hope for humanity's survival?
