I totally forgot about this series! The review definitely makes it sound interesting.

Images of the inundated port show that Urasawa definitely did his research.

He always does! Smile

Ooh, looking forward to this. Finally got round to reading Urasawa when he brought out Mujirushi, which I loved, and am now part ay through Pluto, which has me hooked. He's fast becoming a favourite.

Don't forget about Monster and 20th Century boys, those are my favorites from him! Master Keaton is the last series missing in this list that is available in English. I really like it, but it since it's mostly short stories for each chapter (with the main cast staying the same), it's not nearly as gripping as the aforementioned series.

Very hyped for Asadora, can't wait for my pre-order to arrive (guess the EU gets them late).

I wish I could get into an Urasawa series, but his whole boomer slant on digital releases makes me not want to try. It stinks because I want to read Monster or 20th Century Boys without sacrificing shelf space. It's also a shame Billy Bat hasn't been licensed and may never be licensed because Walt Disney's estate would throw a fit.

I really liked Monster, 20th Century Boys, Pluto, and Billy Bat. I've been meaning to read this.
I hope we get a domestic release of Billy Bat.

As someone who has read Asadora in Japanese up to the latest volume I can attest that it's gripping stuff.

Not to be missed! - looking forward to the..."big" reveal next volume...
