A review by brenticus
The Invincible Shovel Vol. 4 by Yasohachi Tsuchise

adventurous funny fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Plot
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.0

While this volume has upped the ante yet again by converting a whole nation to shovels, I also feel like the characters and antagonist felt less interesting. It also doesn't really resolve the current arc, leaving on a bit of a cliffhanger. 

Still a shovelly series, no doubt, but this entry could have been stronger.
