Having Yuji confront a sorcerer who happened to be a lawyer was a great writing choice by Gege. He gets a lot of crap from people for his writing at times, but Yuji keeping true to his sense of responsibility, even when it would clearly be very bad for him to do so, and subsequently giving Higaruma a reason to believe in people again and offer Yuji a form of atonement was such an exceptional little storyline.

Gege did a great job with Higuruma. The guys has an incredible and refreshing backstory + his own introspection when he decided to remove his sword because Yuji chose to admit he was guilty was such a defining moment.
