Gakuen Alice: Volume 16

by Tachibana Higuchi, 191 pages

A prank gets a little out of hand as everyone's souls trade bodies randomly and truths inadvertently get revealed to the wrong (or the right) people. In the confusion, Mikan resorts to using her secret "stealing" Alice to save a loved one as background conspiracies continue to stew.

It's still hard to keep all these similar-looking characters straight, but when it tries, the story is engaging and its mysteries deep and dark. It'd be nice to have a little less fluffy filler and a little more plot progress, but oh well.
