Just got this in the mail today!  I'm starting over from volume 1 because it's been a while since I've read any of Pluto. |

| Pluto is without a doubt one of the most satisfying comics I have ever read. Epic and exciting. With a heaping dose of Asimov style science fiction. It is without a doubt one of my favorite comics of all time. |

| Loved this manga. I need to buy it! I'll admit that I read scans, but the art in the real thing is just so much nicer. |

Oh man, epic spoilers. Some of the reviewers manage to talk around things, and some really don't. I'm following this as it comes out in the UK, you know.

| Argh, I really want to see the review but I am afraid of spoilers. I still didn't buy the last volume of this epic work. |

And I'd love it if Animeigo could continue the DVD release too...(Not to slam them, they did a great job with the first box and I understand that the economy is slow.) |

Most of the spoilers in it are for previous volumes. As someone who read scanlations (and owns the first three volumes, working my way through them gradually), I found it suitably vague enough that if you've read through 7 - and only if you've read that far - it's more of teaser than a spoiler. Plus if you've read the original Tezuka story, you should sort of know how this is going to end. |

So... How is it that there wasn't any Anime adaptation for Pluto yet?

Until now? There still isn't one, to my knowledge. |

Thanks, I decided to read the review. Nice review as always. I am pleased to see that there will be some epic stuff in this last volume. After reading 20th Century Boys and Monster online, I just had to start buying Pluto even though it's very expensive.

Pluto anime would be nice... but still, I am not sure if it would be as great as manga. |

The extra essays and information at the end are definitely worth checking out. And I have a firm belief in buying Urasawa if for no other reason than to encourage Viz to release (as Carl mentioned) Yawara! I mean seriously, I read a few volumes of that online and that alone was enough to make me want to buy it. Get on it, Viz! |

| Just picked this up from the library today. Got vol. 7 last week and have yet to read it so I'm looking forward to double header. |
