Sekirei 95

Minato is awarded the jinki, and Uzume shows up to rob the jinki.


No rest for Minato's team.

Summary:
Minaka swoops in while holding onto the ladder from his helicopter, but the ladder snaps and Minaka plunges to the ground. Minato and his Sekirei discover that the person who fell is a dummy of Minaka, and Minato retrieves the prize jinki (no. 3) from a chamber within the dummy. Through the speaker system, Minaka announces that the match is officially over and warns that the dummy will blow up in 10 seconds, but Homura burns the dummy to a crisp first because he is annoyed by Minaka's antics. With the jinki in hand, Minato and his Sekirei begin their journey back home.

Back at Izumo Inn, Matsu, Kazehana and Kusano celebrate Minato's victory, but Matsu quickly realizes that the battle is not over. In a Mercedes somewhere on a highway, two people are discussing the third match in the backseats and they note that someone will try to steal the jinki.

Minato and his Sekirei are walking back home, but suddenly Homura notices someone trying to sneak attack and he blocks the attack with his flames. Minato and his Sekirei turn to face the attacker who reveals herself to be Uzume. Uzume admits that she was the person who attacked the winner of the second match, and she demands that Minato hand over his jinki.

The match is over, but the fighting continues. At the end of the last chapter, I was surprised that Minaka decided to appear in person, but that just turned out to be a faint. It's no surprise that Uzume is the one who showed up to rob the jinki. It makes the most sense for Higa to use other people's Sekirei to do such dirty deeds, and Uzume is used to carrying out these tasks. Uzume is no slouch, but she isn't going to take down Minato's group by herself. She is probably weak against Homura since her attacks are cloth-based. Given the situation, I think Shiina and probably a few more other Sekirei will appear in order to have enough firepower to go up against Minato's current group. The other possible route is that Higa might dangle Yukari in front of Minato to make him give up his jinki, but this probably plan B just in case the jinki cannot be robbed by force. The battle between Minato and Higa for Yukari has to happen one way or another. Let's hope that the story will move a little quicker now so we can see that battle sooner.

I wonder who those guys in the Mercedes were. The person on the right (side of the car) looks like Mikogami, but if he is Mikogami then why was his face obscured. The chat between the two guys in the car was interesting though, since they mentioned that Higa hates Sekirei. That partially explains why Higa acts so coldly towards his own Sekirei, although I wonder why he is taking part in Minaka's plans if he hates Sekirei so much.
