Honestly the monochromatic printing and some visual similarities between characters (such as hair cut/color) make it tricky at times to tell who is who and what is going on in some scenes. I feel like maybe I need to read a short summation of this volume before moving on to the next to ensure I understand all parties vying for control of Akira.

I'm looking forward to the next volume, and hoping it contains a little more exhibition and bit less raw action.
