Kaze No Hana, Vol. 3
A well-planned infiltration of the Mitsurugi house by the Shichijou Group leaves the Tonomori and Himekari unable to use, much less locate, their spiritual swords. They then look to Momoka and the dark secret surrounding her past to help them regain their power. Overwhelmed by the burden of their sudden revelations and expectations, Momoka withdraws into herself. Is this the end of the line for the Eight Masters?

There are a lot of characters to keep straight. I’ve read manga with more characters, of course, but the problem here is, outside of Shouta and Momoka no one has much of a personality and the artist isn’t that good at drawing distinct faces.
It’s hard to know even where to start with the review since the first half of the volume is confusing. Even rereading volume two was only of modest help. There’s a rather pointless clash between the groups. Time passes from winter to spring where it seems like the Shichijou group is working against itself and this takes up most of the first half. It’s slow, odd and confusing and culminates in the second half of the book.
Momoka learns her sister is alive and leading the Shichijou who have managed to strip the swords away from the Eight Masters, hiding them on another plane. The only one who can get them back is Momoka if she can draw her own sword. Naturally she has to do her usual woe is me drama before attempting it. I think maybe that’s another problem I have with this manga. Momoka is the stereotypical weak female lead who should be kicking butt but rather requires being taken care of by others. All the other women are stronger than her and she’s not quite interesting enough to engage me in her quest to become stronger.

I would have given it another star if this wasn't the last book. Decent ending, but the story could've seriously gone farther. At the end where the author had some extras she hinted at there being another part to the series (kinda like Naruto Shippuden) but I will have to do some research on that. Great story, I enjoyed it. :)
