My Review:
 
This one is a little more graphic in the naked variation!  Nothing too graphic though (Ren getting out of bed and a half naked woman)!
 
Two new characters are introduced in this volume Condor a former comerade of Ren and Jake's and Angela another assassin.
 
A secret of Angela's is revealed but I don't want to spoil it!  If you want to find please read this manga which I highly recommend!

Warning:  Ren and Mahiro get a little closer (not sure where this is going) and everyone is starting to notice it!

4/5

My Review:
 
I highly recommend this series if you want a great storyline, fast paced action with likable characters and three hot guys.  I would recommend this for 16+ because there are some panty shots and alot of violence, etc.
 
You can't help liking Mahiro because she's so innocent and positive.  She grabs guys actions especially when she smiles at you and introduces herself.  I admire and respect her character because she doesn't get her down that her parents are gone (she loves her job as a food courier) and has a perky personality.  She loves her older brother and they are very close.  Her favorite food and scent is oranges which reminds her of Ren (he wears that scent).
 
Ren her older brother is very succesful and has tons of money.  He quit the army when he found out the Queen of Regalia wanted to assassinate Mahiro because she's the righftul heir to the throne. 
 
Jake is his best friend and they both were in the army.  He quit the same time as Ren and joined him in protecting Mahiro from the Queen.  He's scared of women and his weakness is playing poker.
