School is back in session and Kikuzato can’t wait to get back to running and testing his new prosthesis. As he prepares for another race, Kikuzato wonders what his motivations are for running and has hopes of reconciling with his old friend from the soccer team, Take.

I love the progress Kikuzato is making; both with his training and as a character. His parents are supportive, his friends are great, and we’ve even got a classic rival, Dojima, who is absolutely a dick. The art style shines when the characters are engaging in their chosen athletics and the story does a great job being informative about parathletes and what goes into these competitions. 4 out of 5.

*This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review.

The Yamato Mori trains choujin to either become keepers or just to keep control of their abilities so they can lead a normal life. Ely is doing very well but Tokio is struggling not only with his abilities but what he wants for his future.

This volume is fucking WILD. The paper chojin is insane an so creatively done. I thought this was going to be mostly training but there is a ton of action and variety in the different abilities a choujin can have. My jaw actually dropped while reading this. And that damn cliffhanger at the end? This is a great volume. 4 out of 5.
