So... Like pretty much everything post time skip and half of the pre time skip?

Man. It was bad. Objectively bad.

He lied, hard, and he knows it.

TBH at this point it's getting annoying.

Man. Seriously. Not even a decent extra chapter.

It ended as trash.
"Shiryuu Nakatake's next work" Yeah... Pass. Actually I'm blacklisting that author.

Somewhat deserved.

A literal comedy sideshow to the calamity that is taking place.

I'm starting to side with the mother. She was trying to break that cycle of madness in her family.

So... Poko decided to stay dead?

Bonchien is basically this story's Speedwagon.

Wait. She's not reacting to the fact that Ciel is currently a wanted criminal... Strange...

He's so frustratingly naive...

Answering the question about the human and wolf forms, in detail. Those spirits actually decided to depart and not follow Fushi. Due to that, he can't see their lingering souls to remember them, and can't reconstruct them. He needs to steal them back. Any soul that is not around can't be returned. Which makes me suspect the princess has decided to depart already.

Having an enemy within their walls was already a mistake. He should have been deployed as an outside scout. Worst case scenario, he goes missing and it's as if he wasn't around.

This arc IS getting annoying.

Polluting the water supply is a common siege strategy. A very effective and cruel one.

Maybe she's just into dominant men.

That's the punchline. I actually saw that coming.

That stupid bitch put a target on everyone's back just for the sake of clout.
