Generally speaking, the setting and most of the lore in the Bund series is interesting (for me, at least), but the plot and characters tend to fall flat. The only reason I continue reading this is because of the time I've already invested in the series. To any new readers of this latest addition, I hope that you were super invested in the 'Sannin Werewolf Plotline' because that comes back with a vengeance in this.
Also, very little Akira and Mina for most of this so far (as of Volume 5, Chapter 23) and we're instead treated to the...uh...odd addition of Phoebe...and Phoebe is...definitely a...character. Yup. Very interesting...
You know? The more I write out my thoughts of this series and this particular edition, the less I'm becoming interested in it.
