4 · sorted by votesAn eminent, nearly perfect manga that is haunting and gripping in its apocalyptic spin.
- 80
Massive in scope yet about the intimacy of humanity at its core. Its a thrill ride that never to be forgotten.
The Nameless Hero's….
An abysmal cast of characters, poor plot and unfocused themes make this a drag to read.
