Ilse of misfit Choujin.

While some time on a beach may sound relaxing, Tokio, Azuma, and Ely must fight to survive on their island training grounds. In the middle of training to improve their choujin skills, the trio and their Yamato Mori keepers are taken by surprise by enemies wanting one of the trainees powers. Through smoke, the dead has risen, and even the teachers are having a rough time taking in the surprise combatants. Can Tokio and his friends protect themselves and everyone else when they're still learning to control their powers? The artwork keeps getting more and more beautiful, there are bold thick lines, but there are also beautiful sketchy scenes that are somehow imperfect, yet polished at the same time. Especially one panel at the end that I cannot explain or it would be a major spoiler, but I will say, not all mothers are kind. This was a relatively quick read because there was a lot, and I do mean a lot, of action. There was quite a bit of plot revealed too, and we are now left with a cliffhanger. I can not wait to read in volume 6!
