The end of the previous collection was definitely dramatic and that drama only continues to escalate in this latest edition. We begin by following the aftermath of a shocking incident at the workplace of The Fable, the hitman currently in hiding and working under the name Akira Sato. One of his co-workers, Etsuji, who has been stalking fellow co-worker Misaki, has become so depressed with everything that has gone on around him that he tries to stab Misaki to death then and there in the office.

We don’t tend to review VIZ Media titles much on Anime UK News as we don’t get review copies, but I wanted to give my views on this title, which I purchased myself, for a few reasons. First of all, I’m a fan of ice hockey (I support my local team, Billingham Stars) so out of all the reviewers on the website I guess I’m the one WITH the most in-depth knowledge of the game. Secondly are the somewhat troubled origins of Dogsred.

It’s sunny and the spring flowers are appearing – it must be the end of winter! And that also means the Winter Season is drawing to a close. We said farewell to Dragon Ball DAIMA (twenty episodes) at the beginning of March but some series, like Ameku M.D.: Doctor Detective are still lagging behind and won’t finish before the Spring Season gets underway, due to missed weeks for Various Reasons. Which series have been the top hits for our reviewers? Has Zenshu won us over as the weeks have gone by?

For those hoping that the third volume of Thunder 3 might return to focus on the adventures of the Small Three of cartoonish travellers arriving in a realistic looking world, you will be disappointed. However, there is still plenty of action to keep the reader entertained. At the end of Volume 2, the Small Three of Pynotaro, Tsubame and Hiroshi witness a kamikaze attack on one of the alien spaceships by a Japanese pilot.

WARNING: This book covers topics such as sexual assault, forced sex work and stalking, which some readers may find disturbing. In my review of the previous Fable omnibus, I commented that it would be interesting to see how the events it covers would continue in this fifth collection.
