This was by far a better chapter than the one immediately prior. There was lots of character development the characters themselves being very sympathetic people. I feel much more confident in recommending this series now that there is a much better idea of where it is going moving forward. A must read for fans of Ohba and Obata.
Readers should not go in expecting anything truly transcendent, but if you like a fight-centric comic or are a fan of either franchise this title is worth checking out
