I've finished "Nabari No Ou Vol. 9" by Yukhi Kamatani.

My Review:

I highly recommend reading this series right from the beginning or else you won't know what's going on and there are alot of characters!  Unfortunately I didn't read from the beginning and was kind of confused at first what was going on but then I caught on.

Yoite and Miharu find out the Grey Wolves' leader knows more about them so they decide to escape.  Then the leader sends a couple of assassins to deal with them but not to kill them just to bring them back.

The Grey Wolves' resident journalist sets out on his own to find out the truth about Yoite his Ward's history despite his mission.  He manages to find the church where Yoite and his younger brother use to go to.  He finds out that Yoite's name use to be Sora and he also finds his younger brother.  We learn a little more of their life before.

There were some interesting fights and special powers and cool characters.

4/5

Thanks Hachette Book Group Canada for sending this manga for me to review, greatly appreciated!

Resident journalist is a funny concept. I should read more "boys" manga. Fight scenes are fun.
