Review:
We're still in the middle of a big fight, and it looks like we're
looking at two different fights now. Again, we meet several different
characters, and still none of them I know or get any inkling of who
they are.
There's two different main characters, in two different impressive
suits. We do meet two short-lived crippled guys who get put on a
suicide mission. I didn't realize that being crippled was a theme in
this series, but clearly it is, as we meet several other characters
who are. I'm not sure what they're saying about it, though, as the
public seems to look down on those two as freaks. But then there are
suits made specifically for those body types. I liked those two, too,
for as little as we saw them.
After that, we meet the supposed rich boy piloting such a ship, and
the crew who are working on it.
The last two chapters are a side story, and it was intriguing, though
I'm not sure what it relates to.
I didn't mind reading this volume, but I also wasn't really following
most of it. The fighting scenes are a little hard to follow for me,
and I'm more of a character-reader. Full-on action just doesn't
really interest me.
A review copy was provided by the publisher, VIZ Media, for an honest review. Thank you so, so much!
