Aww. Poor Aoi. She keeps finding herself in formidable positions, and it seems like it essentially has to do with her compassion. Still, I enjoyed reading Kakuriyo: Bed & Breakfast for Spirits Vol. 2. Even when Aoi and her situation gave me anxiety.
Series Binge: The Apothecary Diaries Vol. 8
So, full confession: I had caught up in the anime by the time I sat down to read The Apothecary Diaries Vol. 8. As such, most of this volume was familiar to me. That said, it is 100% worth taking the time to read and watch.

Longstanding fans of Thor and his series are probably more than familiar with the character Donald Blake. Yet they are in for quite the surprise, thanks to the events in Thor #10.
