Asadora!, Vol. 2 by Naoki Urasawa

5.0

Asadora is my newest guilty pleasure! I absolutely adore this manga series about a young girl, Asa, and her search for her family and potentially a giant monster. It's fun, an easy read and quite the light read too. I highly recommend picking this up if you're looking for a fun, fast moving, and slightly mysterious book that won't bring you down or make you feel grey.

There's so many good parts to this book, so let's just write up a quick summary of my notes:
1. Mysterious intro in the jungle
2. Giant monster! In the flesh!
3. "Hero of the Skies" - This is a great tag line for the book, by the wa.
4. Shota is super sweet.
5. "Rotten egg like you" is the best insult I've heard all week.
6. Flash forward and cliffhangers.

Overall, I love this series! I think it's off to a great start and I'm still super intrigued about where it's going to go.

Five out of five stars.

Thank you to NetGalley and Viz for providing me a free copy of this book in exchange of an honest review.
