Seraphim: 266613336 Wings by Mamoru Oshii
5.0

For the book itself, 4 stars, for the rather lengthy afterword that goes into Oshii and Satoshi Kon's relationship, the manga magazine that Seraphim was originally published in, all of the political, symbolic and thematic elements in Seraphim that permeates most of Oshii's work and some of Kon's, easily 5. Highly recommend to anyone who grew up watching more mature manga in the 90's and loves Oshii, Kon, and the group of animators, directors and writers that came from the same generation to create very influential manga and films. Fair warning, this book was intended to be a longer series and so the manga ends somewhat abruptly. It's also a pretty dense read.
