Since this arc is ending I think we're going to be heading into the real meat of battles. We've really been handed small bouts filled with dialogue or introspection from the characters but I believe that this is really going to be dark and serious. Maybe even a tragic death from a well-known character. I hope not, but I have a feeling. I will say though, I expected A LOT of battle and action in this manga so far and now just capping off around the early 100 chapters that have been a decent amount, however, the real power of this manga is the inner growth of the characters that Musashi has encountered. It's like he's the spider that is a part of the integral web of Edo Japan. I love it. Fantastic manga so far :)
