Rosario + Vampire II 35

Akuha invades the Wong mansion while Tsukune view more of Moka's memories.

Even vampires go to church in times of need.

Summary:
Akuha wants the Wongs to hand over Akuha, but Mr. and Mrs. Wong isn't so willing to comply. Mr. Wong launches a fire dragon from a spell tag that toasts a couple of Miu henchmen while Mrs. Wong takes down her own share of henchmen with martial arts. The Miu henchmen are beaten back, but Akuha is unfazed and untouched by the fire attack and she unleashes her Dimensional Sword technique.

In the back of the compound, Fong Fong is worried about his parents, but Ling Ling and Yukari convinces him to stay put. Meanwhile in the dream world, Tsukune falls deeper into Moka's collapsing inner world and in the process he sees another piece of Moka's memory. After the sealing, the new Outer Moka has no memories of what happened that day, but she is desperately missing her mother. The Demon Exorcist puts Moka under the care of a priest but notes that Moka is emotionally unstable right now due to her being frustrated and confused as to what happened to her mother. Later, Outer Moka is shown trashing her room in frustration. Tsukune is surprised by the memories because he thought Outer Moka was always happy and peaceful, and he declares to Moka that he always want to stay by her side. Moka seems to hear this and turns around, but by that time Tsukune is gone. Outside of the memory but still in the dream world, Kurumu and Mizore try to pull Tsukune to safety, and both of them have seen that part of Moka's memories as well.

In the real world, Fong Fong and company notice that Miu henchmen have appeared on top of the walls. Fong Fong tries to summon a beast to combat the henchmen, but he ends up summoning a useless panda and is forced to retreat back inside. Suddenly, Akuha emerges from the ceiling and starts to obsessively check out the unconscious Moka. Fong Fong charges at Akuha who is ready to cut Fong Fong into pieces with her Dimensional Sword, but her attack is blocked by Ling Ling. Ling Ling then explains to the surprised Akuha that the Dimensional Sword is a technique created by Dongfang Bubai, and she also knows the technique because she is a hopping corpse created by Dongfang. Ling Ling then declares that she will be Akuha's opponent.

Looks like the momentum from the flashbacks is continuing on as we have another pretty good chapter. There was nothing too surprising in this chapter, but the story is moving along at a pretty good pace.

In the dream world, Tsukune sees more of Moka's memories. The scene where Moka was praying for her mother does a great job of targeting the emotions and it made me feel sorry for her. I thought Tsukune would convince Moka to wake up or something along those lines, but we only have a brief contact between dream world Moka and Tsukune this chapter. I guess if Moka wants to wake up then she might have to do it using her own power. Or Tsukune and company can stay in the dream world for one or two more chapters.

In the real world, Akuha fights her way to Moka which is a somewhat expected development. It's hard to say if Akuha killed Mr. and Mrs. Wong in the process. My guess would be the couple is still alive but at least one of them (Mrs. Wong) is too injured to continue fighting Akuha. The chapter confirms that Akuha is obsessed with Moka, probably even more obsessed than Kokoa. Since Moka hasn't woken up yet, Ling Ling will fight Akuha to buy time for the group to wake up. Akuha is probably going to come out on top against Ling Ling, but hopefully by that time we'll have another vampire vs. vampire, sister vs. sister match. If Moka regains all of her sealed memories then she'll have plenty of motivation to kick Akuha's ass. We probably won't see that until at least two months from now though.
