Customer Reviews

Girls with Guns

When I was younger I was introduced to anime by The Dirty Pair and Bubblegum Crisis. Girls with Guns became one of my favourite anime genres. This manga and anime series is great. Action and thought, you go for the guns and action and you end up ruminating about the human condition.

Finally Coming Together

While Vol 4 meandered about, for the most part... so does Volume 5, sadly. But, the last chapter of the book is superb and brings back the excitement, tragedy and heartfelt sentiment found in the first 3. The manga is still hit or miss from chapter to chapter, but when it hits, it's some of the best stuff out there.
