Blood+, Volume 3 (Manga) — Asuka Katsura

This third, pivotal volume reveals one of the biggest secrets in the Blood+ mythos - but you'll have to wade through plenty of violence, betrayal, and sacrifice before you get there! Hagi shows just how resilient he can be, Kai is as stubborn and reckless as ever, and confused, sweet Riku is once again in the wrong place at the wrong time. Speaking of time, this volume also features a longer flashback sequence that takes us to the 1800's and another violent episode in Saya's curious, catastrophic life! A brutal skirmish, eye-popping gore, and some enlightening flashbacks open this pivotal volume to the Blood+ manga series, as Saya faces her brutal tormentor Charles head on.
