Monstress, Vol. 2: The Blood by Marjorie M. Liu
4.0

3.5 stars. Can Maika just take a breath and think instead of literally ripping a hole in someone? If she would just pay more attention to what little Kippa or the cat say....
Though I'm still wrapping my head around the different factions involved in whatever's going on, I am enjoying seeing more of this world and its various peoples. And I just love how many women are in this story, from Tuya, to the head of the Dawn court (or was it the Dusk?), the really scary Cumae witches, the Captain of the ship the trio of Maika, Kippa and Cat are on, to Maika and Kippa. And the clothes continue to be gorgeous, as well as everything else in each panel Sana Takeda draws.
