Quanxi and the Special Division are already fighting over Denji when this continuation takes up the conflict. Their competing claims make the surrounding volumes especially useful context. Choose this book to follow the ongoing struggle over him, rather than to meet a new hero with a separate problem. The attraction is the collision of several intentions around one person; a spine number alone cannot make that collision a fresh beginning.
Spoilers — why this volume matters. Tap to reveal.
VIZ adds Santa Claus's intervention to the confrontation involving Quanxi and the Special Division. The useful reading question is how much any participant can understand while another party is still changing the terms. An additional actor can make the existing fight harder to interpret without immediately changing who appears to be winning. For someone buying a single action volume as a sample, this is a limited-interest choice: the contest depends on knowing why its participants want Denji. Its strongest buying role is continuation of that struggle, with the neighboring books available for its accumulating consequences.
