I barely got through this volume. It isn't bad by any means. But I just don't care about the Doves. I wanted so much more from the Ghouls. And we're 2/3's of the way through the series. This seems like a good place to call it quits.

This isn't even close to 4.75 stars in actuality but I don't care i'm biased this volume introduces Akira, who may be my favourite character period and I adore her and Amon's dynamic (lore drop they were my first ever ship). The first half focuses on the CCG as they deal with the ramifications of the Aogiri Tree raid, Suzuya gets his Quinque (which looks like Crescent Rose so I have to stan I fear.) Amon speaks to his "father", a ghoul priest and knowing what happened to him makes his previous actions and thinking much more clear. And we find out what Hide was scheming, he's the reason they found the 11th Ward Hideout so early.

The other half focuses on Kaneki and Co as they try and track down Kano, which is also a lot of fun, loving Kaneki's new group (the fact Hinami joined him to be there for him like Touka was... my heart), the plot is reallu plotting rn and I'm loving every second.
