I think it should be pretty obvious at this point of the review that I'm a big fan of this volume, as I am of this series in general. I hope I've succeeded in proving these high scores are not hyperbole but, fully earned and achieved with powerful character work, solid action and amazing art (which I think I have done justice with my choices for this review.) The last couple of volumes have been a fantastic payoff to all the setup Horikoshi has worked on for this arc, resulting in a simply epic read (and that's not faking the funk). Apart from a somewhat lukewarm start, this volume had no trouble following up on the stellar previous volume with some greatness all of it's own, Showcasing true heroism in conflict with true evil, and all the while setting the stage for an epic final confrontation in the next volume that, if successful, is sure to put this arc down as one of the very best that this series has to offer.  Read Full Review
