Thank you so, so much!

IMHO, this is one of those chapters that brings to the forefront some very important questions that have been whirling about in our heads: what is causing the Yami Sengoku? how important is Kagetora in its resolution? and yes, how the hell is Kagetora holding up after the quadruple whammies of losing Naoe, being betrayed by the Uesugi, having to deal with Nobunaga and being blackmailed by every bloody faction.

Just as lady_nara said, it really cuts me up that a man as powerful as Kagetora would rather be Ougi Takaya, an ordinary schoolboy who can live and love freely, away from the burdens he has carried for 400 years. And yet as Ayako said, all that Kagetora truly needed to know is that Naoe was still alive....

WOHO AN UPDATE!! Oh my god, I'm so happy to finally get to read some more MoB :'D!!! THANK YOU! Thank you so freaking much! It's really thrilling to see the continuation to this arc, it's a really vital part that's been missing! Looking forward to how all of this will develop and I think it's interesting that they've questioning and discussing the reasons as for why and how the Yami Sengoku began.
