The mystery deepens, as details suddenly spring up that not even the series' biggest fan Kobayashi heard ever before!
We got some really good moments this time. Like Liese arguing back against her nightmares, in a reversal of that first nightmare sequence from how many volumes ago. She's awesome and it's great that the series doesn't forget that she is a warrior at heart.
It's not the only reversal we get, since this time it's Sieg secretly struggling with his own feelings of jealousy and keeping that bottled inside that complicates things.
And we also get to one of my favourite parts of the story (I have a lot of those, admittedly), the first meeting and the overall relationship between prof. Leon and Fiene's mom. And I also love that nobody else, in the story or outside of it, learns about that. I'm not sure why, but in this series, where a lot of supposedly secret things are known to the "gods", it makes me downright giddy to see things that stay secret.
And to top it off, we might even soon learn more about what the deal with Kuon Kirise is.
