After reading the latest in the series in this collected hardcover, it seems to me that the story may be winding down to a potentially lackluster ending or a rush ending. However, I am not seeing another volume in this series being released, and if they are leaving it here, I am going to be unhappy about an unfinished story. Hell, they are already advertising another more deluxe version of the series collected similar to Berserk and Blade of the Immortal in a larger, leather-bound tome with supposedly extra content. As much as I would like those, I am probably going to pass unless I can get them on a deeply discounted pricing.Unfortunately, after looking up the manga it appears that the story does not progress any further that it has in this current volume and that makes me a bit sad. However, maybe it will progress further since the second season of the anime ended and maybe give life to trying to bring this story to a conclusion after it left things the way they were. Still a great series none the less.

Para mi gusto, la mejor edición disponible de esta serieTapa dura, material extra, escala mayor que la habitual...

Good quality, highly recommend!!

I have to start this review off by stating this is the first Manga to ever move me to tears. The final chapters of this volume just exemplify how hard Thorfinn has been trying to do things the right way. It’s a relatable tale of redemption the common man of today can relate to. It’s a story that honestly gives me hope that everything will be okay.
