She now only has three Lilus left who are important enough to slay: Bodyguard in Black, the occultist, and Al-Kamil. Good job for killing that white bodyguard. Actually if you recall, Al-kamil wanted to use Ichika as a bait, so she discussed the plot with the occultist and the bodyguard in black, in her own room. The same room where a naked dead woman is hung upside down, as if it is a BBQ food.

i can’t get over how badly the action is conveyed in this manga. there’s no movement at all, i might as well be looking at real photographs

Well, the author's forte isn't movement. It's sex scenes.

We’re in the endgame now guys… and I’m pretty sure that was ichikas first kill right? Before those were just mindless puppets.

i wonder if all that light when he died is linked with the Lilu's "radiance" they were talking about in the other chapters

First!
I am surprised that G-X is out, according to my side, 9/15. Usually it should be the 18 or 19th. Anyway Chapter 40 is 16 pages but well worth the wait.
Oh yes, Show has already submitted 41 on September 10.

If it's anything like Yuri Hime, which also released today, it's cos the 18th falls on a Sunday this month.

Yurihime, yes (that is why I already have the new issue, and finished reading the individual new chapters that I followed. But two of my favorites are not in this issue (My girlfriend's not here today and Citrus Plus.)

I have never received GX and Yurihime at the same date, it is always Yurihime first, then GX. So this time it is very rare because I got them both on 15th

In any case, I can summarize Chapter 40 with one phrase:
"Oooooooooooooooooooooooooh shi*"

Now I am worried ಥ﹏ಥ

I do appreciate that the shock of actually killing someone isn't just handwaved away.

It's often times very very downplayed for the sake of shonen action, like in Naruto where you teach little kids how to kill lo/

But something that's disappointing this time around is the going alone in a life or death situation where you're chased by assassins, a classic, of course she's not in the best state of mind but geez.

Well I'm not too worried, this series plays their card very unexpectedly, you never know for sure what they'll do.

Omg its here.

"feels good doesn't it, toying with someone's life that is" no actually I don't think it does. And like this seems like an obvious start to how Ichika is not going to agree with Al-Kamil. I do think it's a little funny that she walks onto the scene seeing Ichika basically have a breakdown from the trauma of killing someone and going "isn't it fun to kill people :)"

^
It's a basis way of a psychopaths mentality.

100% agreed with this. Most would just glance of it and it wouldn't ever be brought up and Ichika would just become Lady Van Helsing and just become a vampire slayer lol. However I think this is what's going to lead to making her be turned into a vamp herself. She's going to have to kill another vamp and she's going to hesitate and get pretty much killed and Aria is going to make the decision to turn her because she doesn't want to lose her because she's found love for the first time in her very long life.

Also Al-Kamil coming out of nowhere like she's just been with them the entire time trying to be the devil on her shoulder with the "isn't it just so divine to kill" caught me off guard and made me kinda laugh.

I'm not sure if I read it tooo fast or it's just a short chapter. I like how the author shows ichika as someone who engage the struggle to overcome killing someone like a traumatic experience unlike other story where it's not a big deal to kill someone for the first time now aria wake up your bae is in danger!!

I guess we have to wait to find out how Al-Kamil found out where Ichika is.
