The Strikers’ siege on St. Kleio in their final act of desperation ends with heavy casualty on both sides. While security forces eventually succeed in retaking the academy from the enemy, the damage to the school and its students have been done. As survivors cope with the loss of their friends, the chilling warnings of their fallen predecessors continue to haunt the minds of some. Even more disturbing is the discovery that ‘Kai’ - the clone who resembles Shiro - is part of Strikers... and that there is more than one Kai amongst the renegades...

The simplified Chinese Initial D catches up to the Japanese tankou with Chuang Yi's release of 头文字D #41 this coming Tuesday. Actually, we can say the same for Akamatsu Ken's Mahou Sensei Negima! and Arakawa Hiromu's Fullmetal Alchemist, the latest simplified Chinese installments of which also street the same day. Both 魔法老师 #31 and the penultimate 钢之炼金术师 #26's 10.19 street date beats the November skeds of Japanese Negima volume 32 and the Hagaren finale (volume 27), 2010.11.17 and 2010.11.22 respectively.
Only the Chinese Defense Devil #5 lags behind; Youn In Wan & Yang Kyung Il's ＤＥＦＥＮＳＥ ＤＥＶＩＬ ６ went on sale last September.
