The story focuses more on Trey and his personal belief, strength and soul journey but it's also the volume which brings our favorite squad to The Patch Village, or close enough. They have to fight one more completely weird but super funny enemy, which is also a part of Hao's team, in order to get to the entrance.

As for Trey, he confronts a fuckin' bear and learns an important lesson about nature, suddenly becomes more mature and so, almost all of the members are psychologically ready to fight the real battles in the Tournament. I hate Lyserg so much, by the way. Always had, always will. Now that I've basically spoiled you on the whole story, what I actually meant to say is that Shaman King owns my life and soul and I don't think there will ever come a time when I won't love this mesmerizing creation which is just as old as me '98's bitches, hell yeah!

Character development - that's what this volume is all about. And I'll never not laugh about - what was his name again? So multicultural, I bow down to you, Hiroyuki. And Ryu, who's actually on the cover, gets a bit of action. The rest of them are passive and Ren my sweetheart just keeps saying everything is boring. Can't wait to get my hands on the next volume. The whole thing about touching a bear and imprinting human smell on it and then the bear becoming an outcast and being rejected by the others bears But I'll let you discover it all on your own, of course.
