Wayward, Volume 3: Out from the Shadows
by Jim Zub
This series continues to be entertaining even while being heavily flawed. Somehow I get wrapped up in each volume, moments really get me suckered in, but on the flipside there's a lot of "just okay" moments. So anyway let's get in to this!
What I liked: This volume is basically all fights. Cat girl and new fox girl are now teaming up to take down baddies. Why? Who cares. Blood, action, cursing! GO GO GO! Entertaining, lots of cursing because fuck it, and vivid colors. It works because it's so over the top I can't help but enjoy it somewhat. Also the pacing is such a breeze feels like big shit just keeps happening so it's never boring...however....
What I didn't like: Since shit just keeps happening you don't care about anyone. Rori, the kid with magic computer hacking powers, even cat girl. They're all...kind of one note characters. Just curse, attack, slash, kill. No one ever comes close to dying that is important. The plot is just "Oh no he's or she's bad, oh wait we'll kill them, they do, oh no bigger problems.
Listen, if I was 14-17 and Anime was my life this series would probably be a 10 out of 10. As it stands, it just feels like pure action non-stop cursing fun. It's okay but I hardly ever feel the need to care about any of the characters sadly. I'll still read it past this cause stays entertaining but that's about it. 2.5-3/5.
