Yes, I still grit my teeth over the internal contradictions in the story line, and often I just wish the story had gone in a different direction than it did. But generally, I find this volume to be stronger than most of the ones before it. We're past the formulaic "attack each senshi in turn"

chapters, and now with each chapter pushing the story forward, it's a lot more interesting. We see more of the friendship between Chibi-Usa and Sailor Pluto, and get a clearer idea of Chibi-Usa's relationship with her parents, and I think Takeuchi is doing better at connecting those relationships to the characters' actions (including, alas, Black Lady's feelings towards Mamoru…). A fairly good volume, with better things to come. Show Less

Nice resolution to the storyline. I cannot wait to see what the next one will lead our heroines.

Volume 5 is such a good issue, so much happens to the Sailor Scouts and we get to see how awesome Sailor Pluto truly is and a different version of Small Lady. It's an emotional volume and satisfying conclusion to the Black Moon arc.

First things first: I got one of those crappily edited volumes from Kodansha USA with the smudging and heavy printing, but I don't have my receipt so good luck returning it for me. Seriously, where the hell is the quality control that such obvious errors can slip under the radar? JFC.

about printing aside, this is easily the strongest volume of the series so far as it brings the dramatic conclusion to the 'R' story arc. Yes, a few plot threads are wrapped up almost too nicely at the end, but this is a mahou shojo manga after all. But this is a volume about Usagi's strength and Chibiusa's growth, and in the end these two ideas work together to bring down the Death Phantom (err, 'Wiseman' to dub fans) and save the Earth from a toxic death.Warning: Scenes with Dark!Chibiusa and Brainwashed!Mamoru can get quite questionable at times, so if you're triggered by incest, feel free to skip those panels.
