When I was buying this series several months ago, for some reason, all the local bookstores were sold out of this volume. I knew I wasn't going to get around to reading it until much later, but I couldn't have a series sitting around with a missing volume. I don't mind not having later volumes, but everything before has to be sequential. I ended up having to order it overseas and as soon as I had it shipped, Asahiya stocked it. Grr.

I thought this volume was a bit better than the previous ones. The kids are back at school, so there's a little more action. The story between Kagura and Kyo is a little more fleshed out with a flashback to their past. Overall, I think this volume helped develop Kyo's character a lot.

Contains chapter 66~71.
