With the help of the legendary sword Ten Powers and his guide, the dog Plue, sixteen-year-old Haru Glory sets out to find the five missing RAVE stones and stop the evil Demon Card society from destroying the world.
Hiro Mashima (Jap: 真島ヒロ) is a Japanese manga artist.
He gained success with his first serial Rave, published in Kodansha's Weekly Shōnen Magazine from 1999 to 2005. His best-selling work, Fairy Tail, published in the same magazine from 2006 to 2017, became one of the best-selling manga series with over 72 million copies in print. Mashima began the currently ongoing Edens Zero in 2018.
Fairy Tail won the Kodansha Manga Award for shōnen manga in 2009, and Mashima was given the Harvey Awards International Spotlight award in 2017 and the Fauve Special Award at the 2018 Angoulême International Comics Festival.
Something of a "breather" volume, for the most part. The first chunk of this volume (roughly half) is a series of episodic tales as Haru's party makes it to Southernberg. We eventually meet the mermaid Celia and head forward to free the other mermaids from captivity under Ogre and the Onigami forces.
Curiously, despite meeting the Doryu Ghost Attack Squad already, it seems we'll be facing the Onigami crew first. Or maybe both, since we do finally see Doryu's face.
Lucia hires Shuda's replacement for the Oración Seis: Deep Snow, former Northern General of the Empire, and apparently a long-time spy established by King. Lucia sends Reina and Jegan off to fight Doryu and Ogre, but we don't see any of that yet. This happens before Haru and the gang meet Celia.

Mermaid tits on the cover...!
"I believe he's on deck sucking with Plue and Haru." "Uh... Did you just say Haru sucks?" "Not nearly as much as Plue, but yes, they both suck." "Let... You lost, man. Get over it..."
"Aw, snap!! It was poop!"
The 1.5-page spread of the real Haru popping out with Explosion against the fake Haru was pretty sick.
"I would not mind going toe-to-toe with her..." "What the hell are you imagining?!"
Haru's face when he notices Elie is topless 🤣
Celia tummy and titties...!
Bikini Reina on the cover of Chapter 105...!

Haru and company are off to the south, but when they wander into a cave they shouldn't, things start going badly—which is to say, the way things usually go around the Rave Master. As usual, lots of action, a bit of comedy, and a cliffhanger ending—pretty much everything you could ask for in this type of manga. ****
This volume made me laugh so hard. Especially when Dark Haru came out of the water (is shot) *BEEEEEPPPP* PLEASE EXCUSE THIS INTRUSION BUT WE DON'T ALLOW SPOILERS. THANK YOU AND HAVE A GREAT DAY. *BEEEEEPPPP*
