Ah, Blake. She got the most development in this volume and she sure as hell deserved it. I especially like how a lot of her flaws were brought to life in volume 2. We got a glimpse of how her introverted, loner-type personality negatively affects her at the end of volume 1, but her obsession with Roman really showed how far she's willing to go, and I shudder to think about what could have happened if her team wasn't there to help her. I also enjoyed the different spin put on her leaving the WF; instead of her leaving behind an extremist organization because she could no longer condone their actions, she herself seemed to think of her leaving as running away, and in a sense I think she was right. That's what's so cool about her; she tries to see the good and the bad of everything. And since we now know that Adam is a WF extremist for sure (I thought he was just a mercenary with no real attachment to the WF's cause), I'm even more curious as to why he let her leave on the train and if he knew in advance that she was going to do so.

And if her aversion to Zwei doesn't become a running gag, I'll be a little disappointed.
