Customer Review for this product :
Another excellent addition to this great manga series - Anyone hoping to find out what happened to the "real" Princess Mina during her captivity by Lord Rozenmann will have to wait until the next volume. In this volume, the story focuses on the "fake" Mina and the growing recognition by Akira and others that the she is not who they thought she was. We know nothing about the fate of the real Mina. As with previous volumes, the action moves quickly. We are also given some back-story about how Yuki came to love Akira and why she is willing to side with him and the real Mina against the fake one. As usual, the artwork is very good and the political intrigue is still somewhat obscure. For example, Alphonse Borgiani seems to know that the current Mina is a fake, but is willing to support her takeover of the vampire throne due to some promise made in the past. We are not told what the promise was or given any details about Borgiani's seeming betrayal. Hopefully, some of these plot arches will be explained before the series ends. Once Akira begins to work against the fake Mina, all of the Bund's residents are ordered to capture him. I particularly like how Mina's subjects followed her orders, but not mindlessly, and how they rebelled against her, without seeming to do so. One bit of advice, if you have not read the side story, Dive in the Vampire Bund, then you might want to before reading this volume. A character from that story plays a key role in this one. Grade: A, highly recommended.
