Not quite as compelling as earlier volumes because this volume is a very long battle that seems to mostly serve as a set up to an even bigger battle. However, I still feel like I'm reading a classic fantasy series like 'Chronicles of Narnia' or 'Lord of the Rings' and the artwork is pretty much the best there is, so no complaints.

What can I say?  I love this manga.  This third installment was great and had me with tears in my eyes by the end.  Fantastic.

The story is still very compelling! Can't wait for the reunion!

Really enjoyed getting some time with Yupa and Aspel this volume and the introduction of the forest people. Very curious to see what they learn there. 

The battle scenes with Nausicca were all well done and had me glued to the page. I’m a bit heartbroken over a certain friend of hers though :’(
