It's taken longer than planned, but chapter 357 is now up! This is getting to the climax of the fight between Yuki and Takako, which makes it the fifth chapter. And as you can tell, it will continue on for at least another chapter possibly even two. It depends on how quickly I wrap things up here. The rest of it is planned out, but getting there is not clearly set in my mind.

This chapter finally explains what Yuki was waiting on. This was actually a very important key for his side to be able to win the fight, without the device dealt with he would never have actually been able to beat her. Now that it is out, he's got a chance to win. Though there is still one reveal left to go that Takako has to surprise everyone. But at least for the moment Yuki's got the high ground.

Judging from the way things are going I should ideally finish up the third arc around the end/start of the year. I'm not sure how long I'm going to spend on the epilogue. Unlike the second arc, which I'll admit that I sped through faster than I had planned on, I'm going to be taking my time with the epilogue here. There are a lot of pieces I need to settle before moving on. There is going to be one important piece that'll immediately trigger the next arc though, which I won't be bringing up to the attention of everyone until it is over. It'll be very clear what it is when I get there.

Enjoy!
