Boy some real good stuff ramping up in this volume, with a big surprise! I'm glad to learn more about Izumo too.
Esse volume foi muito bom! Me surpreendi demais com o plot de traição de um dos personagens, e parece q esse novo arco vai seguir uma vibe mais sombria…acho q tem bastante potencial

The tension between the Illuminati and the True Cross heat up and the exorcists sort of get their butts handed to them. Izumo gets kidnapped with the help of a traitor. I don't want to spoil that part for anyone but I will say this, it did feel a little poorly set up. Lucifer throws down the gauntlet for Samael (Mephisto) and he's forced to send Yukio, Rin and the rest of the exwires after Izumo because Shura and the others are too injured.
They head to Izumo's hometown which has been built up around an Inari shrine to almost a ludicrous (and I'm betting magical) degree. They also have to deal with all their feelings about the traitor. In the process of their investigations they learn Izumo's tragic history (which is ironically almost the same one I just read in another series). She and her sister are the bastard children of a powerful man who wants nothing to do with them and Mom chooses him over them.
As for Izumo, she is confronted with her past including a madman, Professor Gedoin who is running experiments on her family and is ready to do the same to her.
I have to say I thought it was well plotted, even if I'm not really an Izumo fan However, the art was rougher than I've ever seen it. Gedoin had an exaggerated, inhuman appearance that really bothered me. On the other hand, we had Mephisto out of his costumes, in a t-shirt and pants....though he had a zipper pull of a dog (cat?) dangling from his crotch. Okay then...
Sadly though, the translated volumes seem to have caught up to what's out there to be rounded up and bound because it's now six months to the next one. Sigh.
