Mao, Vol. 12 (Paperback)

Exorcise your destiny in an era-spanning supernatural adventure from manga legend Rumiko Takahashi! When Nanoka is transported back in time to a supernatural early 20th century, she gets recruited by aloof exorcist Mao. What thread of fate connects them? Together, they seek answers...and kick some demon butt along the way! Our friends ponder whether an abusive past can justify bad behavior in the present. A battle against Renji and Mei raises another question: is Nanoka's sword Akanemaru an asset or a liability? Then, two thieves are engulfed by a mysterious bag containing a disembodied hand. Is this the last body part Natsuna has been searching for? Plus, Byoki the cat demon returns...in not two but three time periods!
