While I appreciate Sui Ishida’s surge of kinetic energy flowing through this third volume, unfortunately, it was met with disorientation and confusion as it darts back and forth between aspects of the operation against the Aogiri ghouls. With an attempt to understand and appreciate the mystery that is being uncovered - highlighted by the uttering of Ken Kaneki in the mix - I was left instead with confusion and bluntness. Based on what I read, there is much gap left between each frame for the reader to assemble the flow of the fight scenes, and it is a participation that feels more cumbersome than rewarding.
