Meld je aan bij LibraryThing om erachter te komen of je dit boek goed zult vinden. Op dit moment geen Discussie gesprekken over dit boek. A pretty typical start for a series by Naoki Urasawa, full of foreshadowing of coming developments, intriguing characters, and sudden turns in the story. A prologue has us in the middle of some disaster in 2020 Tokyo that has a large horned figure looming over the city like we're in a Godzilla movie, but then events immediately flash back to 1959 and we're in an O. Henry story with a young girl caught up in a case of mistaken identity, and then we veer into historical fiction and watch the fallout from the very real Typhoon Vera. Without reading any publicity or internet info about the book I'm having trouble defining what Urasawa is trying to accomplish here, but I'm definitely coming back for more. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Onderdeel van de reeks(en)Asadora! (1)
"A deadly typhoon, a mysterious creature and a girl who won't quit. In 2020, a large creature rampages through Tokyo, destroying everything in its path. In 1959, Asa Asada, a spunky young girl from a huge family in Nagoya, is kidnapped for ransom--and not a soul notices. When a typhoon hits Nagoya, Asa and her kidnapper must work together to survive. But there's more to her kidnapper and this storm than meets the eye. When Asa's mother goes into labor yet again, Asa runs off to find a doctor. But no one bats an eye when she doesn't return--not even as a storm approaches Nagoya. Forgotten yet again, Asa runs into a burglar and tries to stop him on her own, a decision that leads to an unlikely alliance."--Provided by publisher. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

I really enjoyed this manga! It's been a while since I've been able to find a manga that isn't mostly romance (that's just kinda how the mangas available in my town go as of right now - trends and all). Asadora is a tale about a young girl named Asa trying to help her small town after a vicious storm/tsunami/potential monster attack happens. She is kidnapped by a man trying to desperately help himself but they soon become quick friends after some misunderstandings. They see the devastation in the area and go to help whoever they can.
The worst part about this book is that it ends on a cliffhanger. Now I really want the sequel! I need to know what's happening! I am invested! What a cruel way to leave it... But also so very good.
I highly recommend this manga if you want an engaging read with some mystery in it. If you want a one and done, don't grab it though. This series is definitely gonna be a binge worthy one.
Five out of five stars.
Thank you to NetGalley and VIZ for providing me a free copy of this book in exchange of an honest review. ( )
