Man, waiting so long between volumes utterly kills me, but the wait is so worth it every time!
Once again, Coud and company are in over their heads and having to resort to desperate acts just to make any progress in their increasingly difficult journey. Even worse, Coud and Ren are still not on speaking terms and old airdog Pops refuses to cooperate by lending his ship. Cisqua also has a chance encounter with a certain someone that leads her to realize there's more going on than she was ever aware of... bad news all around.
Aside from an out-of-sequence insert that temporarily throws readers off (it was a two-page "teaser" preceding the chapter as it was printed in the series' original run), the book reads smoothly and quickly, showing off Azuma-san's usual excellent art. The fights in this volume are brief but impressively drawn and the visuals of the city are a treat. Fans of the Elemental Gelade series will find a lot to enjoy here.
The current release date for Volume 13 is January of 2011. Let's hope this doesn't change; we waited long enough just for this one!
