The fourth volume finds us midway through the Shikoku Arc. A "new weapon" from the Earth Eradication Army gets deployed, and our boy Kuu gets dragged into a battle between teams of magical girls, that might also involve an ally.
It's still cool to see new characters with new powers, and the battle gets resolved before the volume ends, but it kind of feels like it's speedrunning the cool fighting action to get back to the talky/thinking bits.
