Synopsis:EN GARDE!
The beloved sports romance returns from acclaimed writer C.S. Pacat and iconic artist Johanna the Mad, pushing the saga to new competitive heights!
Kings Row are heading into the State Championships as underdog champions, and now have to contend with the best of the best in fencing–including potentially facing Exton themselves. Before they can get there though, they’ll have to get through some of the other top teams, including some old rivals…
I had no idea there was a new volume of C.S. Pacat and Johanna the Mad’s Fence, but here we are: volume 7, Challengers, which sees Nicholas and Seiji and the rest of Kings’ Row going up against other teams at last. The stakes are high for Nicholas, who wants to be seen by his father at last, and for Seiji, who needs to beat Jesse…
There are a few adorable references to Nicholas and Seiji’s date, sorry, I mean “appointment”, and we also get to watch the whole team grow. It’s cursedly short, is my only complaint! And I could use the slow burn between Nicholas and Seiji ramping up a bit sometime soon, honestly.
“Appointment.” Pft.
Rating: 4/5 (“really liked it”)
I really need to loop back to these and try to get caught up. They’re so much fun!

It’s a very fun series; I hope there are more volumes soooon.
This was a good reminder that I still need to try this series. I remember when the first volume came out and all the buzz around it. Glad you’re enjoying it!

It’s a very fun comic, though there are some biiig gaps between parts of the story coming out…
