God damn Sal Jiang's art is something to behold . . . It was always good, though there was more of an emphasis on the feel of the spaces and the character expressions (my god, the expressions . . .) - adding in the fantastical elements and the action/fight sequences is amazing, honestly it's done better than most shounen battle manga, less confusing to read but so very impactful . . .
Also, Sadako is wonderful, such a simple and naive and fun character, with hints of new depths and complexity showing up ever more frequently as things progress. And Hanako is shaping up to be just as good, particularly as a foil for Sadako's Chaotic Random . . .
