4.0
My original rating was a 3.5, but i'll round it up to a 4 for the two stories at the end. Especially 'The enigma of Amigara fault'.
As a manga fan, I decided to buy this book randomly like ''Oh he's pretty popular, lets give it a go'' (I don't talk like that btw, just an example). Needless to say, I was not disappointed. The drawings were amazing, and the story went from 0-100 real fast. Even the two bonus stories at the end kept my attention the whole time! Give it a go, why not? (I don't recommend this to someone with a weak stomach though.)
