Omg it keeps getting better and better?!
In this volume we finally get Sango as an official part of the team! And the gang is complete omg! I love seeing all of them together, and then we get to see them working together as a team for the first time ever π₯Ή I love the dynamics as a group and we're also seeing some dynamics with Inuyasha & Miroku and then Kagome & Sango!
We also get to learn more about the origin of the Shikon jewel. The author just knows how to pull parallels, like it's so good.
In other news, Naraku is truly an evil mastermind who keeps planning traps and blackmails. Like first, the wounded Winded Tunnel, and then Kohaku. Ugh I hate him, yes.
Also why is it that sometimes Kagome just stands around when everybody's fighting in this volume ππ But then she also gets fed up with Naraku making a fool out of Inuyasha and she ends up destroying and purifying Naraku's fake body?!? My girl is whipped, I'm afraid π
OH AND JINENJI'S STORY IS HERE IN THIS VOLUME AAAAHHH. That's one of my favorites π₯Ή
AND!!! I'm not saying I cried at the part where Inuyasha was opening up to Kagome... but yes that's what I'm saying π
Anyway, some art/panels just feel weird or disproportionate, but honestly other than that, this perfection.
