Inuyashiki, Volume 4
by Hiroya Oku
Sorry Inuyashiki it's been awhile!
So this volume feels like a bridge of sorts. Half about training, half about moving on in life. However, it's actually pretty interesting. We have Inuyashiki learning to use his weapons and powers he's gained. Yeah we've seen him fuck shit up before but never really on purpose. So Hiro's old friend, who is now scared of him, begins to help train him. Then you have Hiro, the kid who goes around killing because he can, starting to figure out life. After he finds some soul searching he thinks maybe it's best he stops killing and despite being a robot maybe try to live a human life.
Good: The art is still pretty solid. Some scenes are downright amazing. Also really enjoyed Hiro's progress. The final moments in this volume kind of make you forget his past sins even though once you remember you can tell him to go fuck himself. Also liking how our main character is finally learning to use his new talents.
Bad: It's a very quick volume and went too fast. Some overly long "What!?" and "How!?" panels. Like there's a part the characters are in shock for about 8 pages...it's a bit much. Also, how do becoming a machine robot creature give you powers to heal everything? Weird.
Overall this is fun volume. It feels like a bridge for something HUGE coming. I also think Hiro is becoming more compelling the more they go on. I hope it continues to get better!
