I’m starting to think that volume eight is not the last volume of The Betrayal Knows My Name, just the last volume translated into English. If this is the case, I will be disappointed, but I have the anime to look forward to. So, if I am left hanging I can at least see the resolution in live action rather than in 2D.
The events of volume seven just make me feel as though there aren’t enough pages in volume eight for everything to be resolved. I might be wrong but I don’t think we have even seen Reiga since volume four, and if we have it is just a brief depiction of him talking to one of his associates. The zweilt are still searching for the kid with the grimoire. I still don’t know what went on in the past to cause such tension between Sairi and Luka, but I bet it’s really intense. Takashiro is still locked in a room with only two people knowing exactly where he is and why. The last volume is only slightly thicker and all of this is going to get answered? I’m not convinced, and I’m slightly skeptical about my curiosity being satisfied. I hope I am not left disappointed, as the series has been really good! I’ll have my final thoughts for you on Friday.
