5.0

I have read this volume faster than any other so far.
For some reason, i really wanted to know what donkey saw in the science room.
And that's why i never stopped after 50 pages like i usually do.
Friend is back with the famous look the full face cover.
We are not sure yet how? and it feels like he looks slightly bigger than what fukubei used to be!
What donkey saw in the science room was a trick the three kids (yamane, fukubei, sadakiyo) came up with, to make fukubei look like he is hanged, and then he comes back to life, but he was never hanged, donkey is amazing he saw through their trick, and that's why they wanted to hurt him.
We also see kind of a 2 short origin stories for God, and Manjoume inshou, where god was actually the evil emperor who built the bowling alley on the field where they built their base!
While manjoume inshou was the spoon bender who probably taught fukubei, and that was his relation to him, and how they met, we don't know much about that yet, and i hope they tell the rest of the story how they met exactly.
It was very emotional for me seeing young yushitsune, trying to build the base by himself to attract his friends back, one of the most emotional scenes in the volume, And then there was the donkey scene when he was talking with kana being all logical and stuff, that was really good too and emotional for us knowing his end, Also the kana/kenji hug
