A review by katarina_kirishiki
Orb: On the Movements of the Earth (Omnibus) Vol. 1-2 by Uoto

emotional informative reflective

4.0

- read for a book club -

Looking at the cover I thought I'd like the art, but tbh I was a bit disappointed. The panelling is also really simplistic. Both aren't bad by any means, I just expected more before reading it haha.

The shady sides of religion do shine quite well in this story.

The most obvious of course being that the bishop hired a mercenary to cosplay as a priest and the notions of "There's no reason. It's simply the law." and "Curiosity is a sin." as soon as anything is questioned.

A beautiful quote imo is

"Being wrong doesn't mean it was all for nothing." This should really be something people live by, instead of being so focused on being right above all else.
