Run from Your Friends

Run From Your Friends is the eighty-sixth chapter of the Seraph of the End: Vampire Reign manga series, written by Takaya Kagami and illustrated by Yamato Yamamoto.

Short Summary
Shinoa awakens to see the blue sky and complains that her body hurts. However, she forces herself to sit up and is then crushed by Mitsuba's hug. After a short back-and-forth filled with lightheartedness, Mitsuba tells Shinoa that Yūichirō has been kidnapped by the Hyakuya Sect. While she was thinking, Shinoa spots Yoichi who was carrying Shihō and Mirai on his back. Yoichi updates them on the situation and Shinoa makes rescuing Yūichirō the top priority.

Elsewhere, Yūichirō, with Asuramaru in hand, stands by Mikaela who urges Yūichirō that they need to escape to which Yūichirō asks why. Internally facepalming, Mikaela changes tactics and comes up with a slapdash "plan" to save Guren but they first need to run away. While they were bickering, Noya comments on Guren's true wishes who shoves it aside and asks him if he plans to help him. Noya, of course, denies having any plans as he is a demon which Guren immediately doubts.

Noya then prepares to attack them but Mahiru stops Noya from attacking by putting herself in his line of fire. She then greets Yu and tells him that they've met before, jarring Yūichirō's memories. However, Yūichirō replies that he's already found a family in Mikaela and his other friends. Resolving to fight, Yūichirō calls upon his sword, transforming into a demon, to which Noya finds extremely intriguing. Yūichirō declares that he will save Guren before attempting to escape but is stopped by Guren's smirk and his blade, which attacked them with an utterly destructive horizontal slash.
