Fuck, i've seen Battle Tendency twice and this is my second read through and Caesar's death STILL gets me so bad- absolutely stunning writing and panelling, what an important moment in the story, especially knowing how much Araki likes killing off characters. This feels like the first death (outside of Jonathan) to have a serious impact on everything going forward. Wonderful volume. Also some the the full colour panels here are gorgeous they went extra hard for this one and i'm glad they did.
