And I'm done reading. Opinion:
Spoiler! :
As predicted, it was a Yuri volume, her development was dearly needed and turned out nicely.
Godou keeps improving, but he's essentially still Godou. He takes 2 steps forward and half a step back.
The other characters get a bit relationship development along the way, some of it very interesting but overall minor (I like how they developed Asuka although she never showed up in person, but this is really minor)
It lacks a lot of the humor the series usually has. Some parts are a bit dry.
I remember 5 (!) action scenes of different length and intensity and some might even dwarf the ones in V7, but it comes with similar disadvantages, especially towards the end of the volume.
In the end, I still think V12 is better, because it's funnier, more consistent and pays more attention to the details. Still, I'm already looking forward to V14. A lot.
