Juni Taisen: Zodiac War (manga), Vol. 2 (Juni Taisen: Zodiac War (manga), #2)

Twelve fighters enter, one fighter leaves—who will win the 12th Zodiac War?

Every 12 years, 12 fighters take the form of the Chinese zodiac and engage in a battle royale. With their strength and mysterious powers, they fight to the death and the sole survivor is granted the ultimate prize—any wish.

With several of the fighters already dead, the Zodiac War is in full swing! The biggest danger the remaining fighters face is Usagi, the fighter of the Rabbit. He has the unique ability to control the dead bodies of those he’s slain, putting the other fighters at a huge disadvantage! While Usagi and his undead army rampage in the streets above, Chicken and Rat lay low underground with Monkey, who is determined to settle the battle with as few deaths as possible.

I figured I needed to finish off some of the shorter manga series I have started, and since this is one I know the plot of (I watched the anime a while back) it seems to go a bit quicker. So far it hasn't differentiated itself much, which is okay I suppose since I would classify this series as 'stupid fun'.
It's all very middle of the road for me, though I do enjoy some of the character designs as well as some of their powers. I just find much of it disappointingly quick.
