So Volume 9 is one of the best Volumes. thats obvious
it seems the funding came from WB or Crunchyroll (idk havent really looked it up), but i think they have ANOTHER source of funding.
so V9 starts. lots of odd imagery harkoning to Wonderland. but there is an underlying theme in the backdrop the entire time. all the way from the first character interactions.
what is it you might ask? its food
Ruby helps Little get cheese....uhhh..plant? in Episode 1. later on, the other mice talk about eating Blake. yes that counts. shut up
Episode 4 we have the Cat chasing bugs and the Herbalist with his....Drugs? Spices? either way, more food
Episode 5 has the Growgurt Parfait. and the ending
