Title: Black Cat Volume 13: Dear Friend
Series: Black Cat - 13th volume
Author: Kentaro Yabuki
Read Before: no
My Comments: An important volume in terms of the story, well, not the current story arc, but in terms of Train’s past. We get to finally, after hearing snippets of it, of how Saya Minatsuki died, and how this event had deeply affected Train. To be honest, it was a bit of a disappointment, I was expecting something more heart wrenching, I think the author had built up too much anticipation that when he finally revealed the past of what happened, it didn't live up with the expectation. The relationship of Creed with Train and why Creed killed Saya was superficial and weak, there was no compelling reason, and the explanation given in the chapter was that Creed is hard to understand, maybe there is something else to be revealed later as he did not go into his relationship with Creed. It ends in a cliffhanger for the next volume (which I have to skip… L, can't find it in the library) where Train and Eve finds a lead as to where Creed is.
Rating: 7.5/10
