ok, going to try to do something resembling a review of this. which is basically just 'i loved it all except the lila/kell stuff' SORRY i'm still not into it, but luckily it was only like 2 or 3 scenes and i basically just skipped them. 
 but anyway this was a perfect closing volume for this series, everyone got good closure, although there was a short time there (view spoiler)[where i felt like we were just playing 'kill everyone except the very main characters'. which i mean i get that you have to kill some people to make things feel like they have weight but it just felt like all the extra people got killed off all at once and i was just like ...ok then (hide spoiler)] 
 also i love alucard and rhy and i'm so happy they are together and happy! and i'm so glad holland finally got a satisfying story arc. those three are my precious children. even though holland is actually quite a bit older than everyone else so i imagine him just being there like 'i cannot believe i have to babysit all these children while they think they're holding me prisoner' snort.
