I like the story telling and how the story is unfolding.
Also i absolutely love the character building their growth and evolution, its epic to say the least
more characters are being introduced, and the plot is getting thicker .
I love how when otcho returned to japan how he viewed everyone around him, and lets be truthful here i bet that is just his view of his country after he returned from a less evolved place, he literally saw every girl and guy in front of him the same way, they all just looked the same to him plain and simple, he didn't like how everyone had mobile phones, happens to the best of us after seclusion, especially how we view the newer generations with a critique eye.
Friend now wants them to gather all 9 of the childhood friends, i wonder if next issue they will stop the huge robot, it would be premature but it would hardly be the end of the story.
Honestly its hard to know what naoki ursawa has in store for us, so i ll just enjoy the ride

Kenji finally links what look likes dooms day scenarios to a small script, "Prophecy book", written by his school gang. And this confirms his fears, master-mind is somebody from the group. But who? So he starts with sending messages to his friends because deadline of December 31st 2000 lurks very near.

One of the people that get the call is ronin-like wanderer in Thailand under the simple pseudonym of Shogun. Lone justice warrior finds himself fighting against the local gangs when he gets the call. Call he must respond to.

Art is always excellent.

Highly recommended.

Me encanta cómo se desarrolla la trama de Shogun y cómo se enlaza de nuevo con la de Kenji. Y gracias a las notas de traducción, se ha ganado mucho contexto cultural.

Es una gozada leer a este autor.
