    Wayward #8 makes a lot of progress in a single issue. We know the fate of Rori and Shirai, and we see how far the others have come along since taking matters into their own hands. It's a big world, one full of mystery and it's fun when with every passing issue there is something new we learn. Read Full Review

    Wayward #8 is not a wholly perfect affair but it exists as a complete reminder of why this is a franchise to watch. A solid continuation with narrative nuggets that make it more than what it could have been, sets the case for this to be a recommended addition inany collection. Read Full Review

    With Wayward getting us back to the story of Rori, I'm definitely pleased by it and what it represents in nuding the larger storyline forward again. While what we get is a rest and recuperation installment, it does provide Rori a chance to learn something new about herself, and others, and it puts her in a newly re-energized mode that's ready to go. Similarly, we get some good time with Emi and Nikaido that brings out more of their own personalities and what defines them while also bringing it out into the open alongside Ayane just being her usual easily insulted self. Ayane definitely looks like she might be bringing in something weird the next time around, but that's what you get with cats and what they drag home, right? It's a solid issue all around that expands on things, hints at the future, and brings back the characters I wanted to get some answers about. Read Full Review
