More characters, more action and more fun in the latest volume of "NORA"

In 2004, manga-ka Kazunari Kakei had his breakout hit manga series "NORA - THE LAST CHRONICLE OF DEVILDOM". The series has just been released as a graphic novel published by Viz Media under their cutting edge manga imprint known as Shonen Jump Advanced (targeted towards older teens and young adults). In Japan, there have been many manga and anime series which pits demons going after other demons and "NORA - THE LAST CHRONICLE OF DEVILDOM" fits that type of storyline description but with a twist. In the first volume, we were introduced to the situation in the Demon World as the Dark Liege (a female demon who tends to take on the shape of a buxom blonde diva) had banished Nora to Earth because of Nora's short temper and his constant disrespect for the leader of the Dark Liege army. The school president Nora, a self righteous and often arrogant but very intelligent individual has assumed the mantle as master of Nora and to train him obedience. Nora can't use his powers freely unless Kazuma accepts. Therefore, Nora is pretty much powerless unless he works together with his master. Which at the time being, he has a hard time with having to play dog to Kazuma. At the end of vol. 1, we were introduced to Knell, a high-ranking and perverted demon who Kazuma and Nora barely have beaten. Now, both Kazuma and Nora know that they will have to work together in order to prepare for more difficult battles ahead. With the latest volume of "NORA - THE LAST CHRONICLE OF DEVILDOM", we are introduced to a new Dark Liege member named Barik. Barik is a trainee and dedicated to serving the Dark Liege but can't stand Nora. The fin-eared trainee has to deliver a bracelet to Kazuma because in the last battle, by overdoing Nora's magic, it takes a toll on Kazuma's body. So, this time, the bracelet reduces the damage done to Kazuma but there is a catch. In the bracelet are two tags. If Nora is able to get one tag, he can nullify their agreement and freely gain his powers back. One thing is for certain, Nora being with Kazuma has greatly increased his power. While Kazuma and Nora try to figure out this new power, the Resistance is not enjoying the news about Nora's increasing power and Cerberus's presence on Earth and start's killing off Dark Liege members. A shark like member of the Resistance named Jeek is now wanting to kill both Nora and Kazuma. Do the two have what it takes to beat this murderous demon? ARTWORK: As for the character designs and artwork, Kazunari Kakei tends to use a lot of simple line art for his character designs but effectively showcases the character's emotions quite well. But where Kakei shines is when he features the various battles, the monsters, Cerberus and even the Dark Liege in her buxom blonde mode. Kakei starts featuring these battles with a lot of lines and these characters with a lot of blacks and grays and really capturing the action effectively on paper. The second volume of "NORA - THE LAST CHRONICLE OF DEVILDOM" co
