Nice chapter.
But, the mangaka continues to get in the fray all the characters he created, from Ewan to Patchman.

I wondered if I should have continued this manga because it had a very slow pace, imo

but I am glad I read the ninth chapter. We basically get an explanation of what arago can do with his powers and what he can not touch or what he can touch. The current case looks really interesting, it somehow reminded me of sherlock holmes (the latest movie) and that's probably because of the ritual stuff. I definitely look forward to the outcome of this case

Right when I was getting bored with this series an interesting chapter comes out.

I'm wondering if this case will involve an actual demon or will it be normal humans committing the killing? If their is a demon, that teacher guy is looking awfully suspicious.

I agree with you all. Chapter 9 has been the best chapter I've read. Well, these new characters, for me, will be important in the history. What say...I really like the Trio, above all Joe. Waiting for next chapter. It will have a color page!

Anyone who read the last chapter, great turn of events

The school director seemed to be a tool used by a new stronger enemy, the student arago saved from a fight. He looks like the (first?) serious opponent arago will have to fight. It looks very cool

I'm still awaiting for an english version. I saw only the pics, and I think it'll be a superlative chapter!

Chapter 11 is finally up, for anyone interested. :amuse

I kind of saw that twist coming.
With Seth having powers.
Although I predicted more he'd be a demon summoned by Eames, after the last chapter. But in this one, we find out that there wasn't any summoning going on at all. Was just an excuse for the murders. So that part of my theory went out the window. :p

But chapter was really good. Especially the end, with the design and revelation. Really looking forward to the next one, since we seem to be getting to learn more about Arago's power~

Woooooow!
This chapter was THE chapter! Does someone of you understand? lol
Anyway, I really liked Seth's power and also the history of "Treasures of Erin".
I can't wait for the secret of the Arago's power. By here, we'll know the way that the history will take.

Yeah I really enjoyed this chapter too. Its also probably the first chapter to really give us a good idea of where the story is going plot wise. I wanna more about this Erin guy/girl/thing.

I agree, it's an interesting plot development. I wonder if Seth's power is another part of the Treasures of Erin. What or who's Erin? What was the purpose of his treasures (powers?). It's mysterious but I kinda expect some explanation in this fight.

The manga is finally giving very important elements to what may come

I think it's one of those manga that could get really big,something like Naruto,where we saw Naruto's Kyuubi and wondered what the it was and where it actually came from.Then we met Gaara who seemed to have one to,afterwards everything was explained with all the bijuu and stuff.
The same is going on in ARAGO now,i think.

The first chapters were also really popular,so it might grow very famous.

You're right. Who is Erin? And, when will we know who is he? Now we have more topics whose we can discuss. But, honestly, I think Takahiro won't show us the VERY SECRET of Arago's power. Well, some hints yes because he says this, but, not completely...I'm not sure of this, but...it might be happen. But, as always, only the author will show us the answer.

I think this manga is blending both the mystery detective stories and typical shonen fights evenly. We start out with new cases and try to gather the evidence as readers and we get a turn of events with Arago dealing with the supernatural.

On to this chapter: Rio comes to save the day! The bullet was a nice touch and favorite panel in this chapter, she might not be strong but she knows how to use her brain. So I'm guessing Seth wanted to separate Arago from the others, maybe he wanted his ability to be kept a secret and he's a good guy testing Arago. Or he's a cray power hungry human wanting more and will fight Arago with every thing he has. It's getting interesting.

Well, we can understand, after this 11 chapters, that the true brain of the group is Rio. As Akiyama said, she might not be strong, but surely she's intelligent. I'm not agree regarding Seth. Especially if he is a good guy or not. I think he isn't a good guy. I think it, and I hope. Surely, he'll be one of main characters, but...I guess he, indeed, want to possess all treasures of Erin...or...something like this. XD

Seth is probably someone who'll turn from evil into good. I believe that arago can convince him. Seth must have lacked something. Why? Somehow the words Arago is using towards him, aren't words said to a deaf man. He sees a good nature in Arago and if Arago can beat Seth then I really think that Seth can be convinced by Arago's good nature

New chapter's out.

I don't really get it that much since I'm not that into that type of mythology, but it looks like Arago's power is more 'godly' than 'demonic'.
