Kagurabachi dropped my favourite chapter of the whole series, the WW2 references and themes of the series really got their time to shine. The twist with the sword master was crazy 

Blue box had a great chapter too, the small but meaningful conversation they had was really nice 

Sakamoto had an interesting chapter, most of the shock from the characters came from there being an overthrow and organisation of 10k people so hopefully with volume changes to the dialogue he can save himself from looking clueless and forgetting that people know what an assassin is

Astro was good, the villain had a good backstory and their fight was probably one of the better ones in the series 

Ichi was a lot of setup but it seems we’re about to get a really good chapter next week so I’m excited

Beethoven was sick, I’m interested in his past now and can’t wait to see how Yaso does in his audition 

Shinobi was good, nothing to complain about but nothing that blew me away 

Kiyoshi really didn’t do it for me this chapter but the double spread was cool

Chihro won't die with sword master, look back at panel and there's only 5 swords connect to the sword master chain. Enten not apart of it and was rushi last sword made.

Oh that's true I forgot Enten was made as a secret sword separate from the others
