This was an explosive volume as the remaining survivors have to work together to kill one of these god-like creatures.

Yuzuriha gets to really shine this volume. Her moves are slick and brutal and working with Sagiri and her chubby assistant make for a hell of a showdown. But it really goes crazy when Shion comes and the fight explodes into a badass survival mode. The latter half of the volume reverts back to Gabimaru, but when you think it is slowing down they drop a bombshell that changes the context of Gabimaru's past completely.

I'm really digging this volume. The other stuff with the ninja/samurai working together at the end was okay, but the rest was GREAT. I'm for sure going to keep collecting these.

A 4 out of 5.
