There’s a lot going on in this volume with it opening with too much exposition. Quickly after that, we get an invasion of the city and a glimpse at the dark lords. It’s a lot to take in all at once (it’s messy), but this volume is definitely action-packed. Mostly worldbuilding and introducing character plot points. 

I hope as the volumes continue the story will get leaner with exposition and we learn more about the characters. 

SN: Obinna “Obi’s” design is stellar! Boy looks fly with the mask, the ELECTRIC yo-yo, and the rest of his get-up.
