Title: D.Gray-Man Vol. 16
Series: D.Gray-Man - 16th volume
Author: Katsura Hoshino
Read Before: yes
My Comments: The battle against the Level 4 Akuma finishes in this volume, taking up a good portion of the novel. Lenalee gets new powers, and it’s okay, when the energy trailed from behind her boots (either that, or it was fire, like an engine thruster) it was kinda lame. Anyway, I loved how Allen and Lenalee teamed up against the Akuma, although it took Cross to arrive to finally defeat it. However, the events that happened afterwards were confusing, and it was only with the benefit of having read it before, was it more clear and enjoyable. It was really well done how the author managed to convey the sadness of one of the workers in the science department passing away. It wasn't even a major character; yet, the author had managed to create a sense of connection with him, such that when he died, it was painful. It was surprising how the Noah appeared in human form and blended into society very well, even the Earl. The final arc is somewhat lame, and feels like filler.
Rating: 6/10
