Actual rating: 3.5

It's been some time since I was last reading Black Bird, it's kind of nice to come back to. The volume cover is absolutely gorgeous, if you ask me, and the chapter covers even more.

Lord Yoh was an interesting character. I really enjoyed his sudden appearance, as he revealed some of their family's past. The events he reveals to Misao actually end up being important to the plot of this series.

Sho also returns in this volume, and damn, does he ever look good in an eye patch.

I don't know if I like Kyo or not, to be honest. He obviously loves Misao and tries to do all in his power to keep her safe, but at the same time, he appears to be somewhat abusive toward her. In this volume, he even tells her that sometimes he wants to make her smile and treat her nicely, then other times he wants to be mean to her and make her cry.

I don't get it.

I also gave this an extra star purely for the last page alone.
