20th Century Boys 5
by Naoki Urasawa
Probably one of the best volumes of the series. We've been building and building. Getting ready for doomsday! THE FINAL DAY WHEN ALL HELL BREAKS LOOSE.
Then the second half of this volume goes in a wildly different direction then expected. A huge time jump that works very well. Some series can't pull it off but this one does.
What I liked: Character's are changing, hidden motivations, and events actually speed through on this one. Lots of great moments, some eerie scenes of death, and some new interesting characters popping up. Also let's talk about the ending...what in the fuck of fucks? Yeah...
What I didn't like: The chapter with the brothers. Kind of felt weak compared to the rest.
20th Century Boys needs to be read. I mean it. It's one of the best manga series I read and I'm only 1/4th of the way through. I hope it stays this good throughout.
