The group is finally all together (minus Yuya of course), and they're well on their way to reaching Lotus Land (aka where Kto's body is hidden in the ice castle). Unfortunately, getting to the gates of hell is only step one; they also have to get past the villagers and the gatekeeprs, and just when you think they're safe, more of the Twelve show up. At least this seems like the final battle with the Twelve, since it's between Kyo and the leader. What is with Japanese authors having whole groups of enemies? Can't there just be one baddie, and then it's done? Far too much effort, in my opinion!… (más)

As I suspected all along, Kyoshiro didn't really disappear forever; he just buried himself deep within his/Kyo's unconscious mind to await a time when Kyo wouldn't be able to win a fight. He comes back in the middle of Kyo's battle with Nobunaga (the ringleader of the villains, who's out to take possession of Kyo's real body) and reveals his true power as an alchemist/magician of the Mibu clan. Obviously there had to be a reason why Kyo chose to reside in Kyoshiro's body, and now we finally know for sure. Of all the power players we've met, Kyoshiro is the most powerful due to his heritage even though he wants nothing to do with battle and death. Such is life, eh?

The 12 (and Yuya) have finally reached Kyo's true body in the ice castle, butit seems like Ajira has plans of his own for it, since he turns on his companions. He might just be another person out to possess Kyo's body, or destroy it for good, but he might end up actually being on Kyo's side. That would explain how nice he is to Yuya, but I highly doubt that it's that simple.… (más)
