----------------------------------------
Like that scene of Musashi urging Haruhisa into action, similar to Katsumi consoling Musashi previously in the arc.
The camaraderie in the last page was also pretty neat, night and day compared to how this platoon was initially.

The pawn piece being used as proof that the old Akihiro was still there, was similar to how the Training Records that Kojiro found in chapter 1 proved that Musashi didn’t give up on his dream of being a Bushi. Given the theme of legacy, mementos will probably be a recurring thing like Kojiro’s regular sword and Tsugumi’s Demon Metal Weapons.

There’s a small line that implies the importance of formations in battle, so far in these Sword Links mostly the Bushi at the head of the link does the attacking, I hope we can get more instances of other Bushi in the link attacking along side the head or covering for them sort of like Musashi did in chapter 96.

It seems if Akihiro let his siblings form something akin to a perimeter defence to cover his blind spots he could have prevented this situation, but because he chose to keep them at arm's length they couldn’t help him, another example of the symbiotic relationship of humans conveyed through the battle system.
