Finally some of the answers are forthcoming that turn a stylish manga into one that can actually be understood. Just when I was about to draw a chart of all the information that was scattered across the first volume and the beginning of this second one.Killy is still trying to make his way up through the megastructure, encountering other people and machines and something in between from time to time. Usually it doesn't lead to friendly conversations. There's lots of action.He's still in search of someone that possesses the Net Terminal Genes, but seemingly without knowing exactly what they are for. Pretty soon, though, Killy (and the reader) will learn of the motivation of at least one faction for finding them. And this manga starts to make sense.I'm going back to reading the Master Editions now and am actually looking forward to the second one of those.3.5 stars for this volume, which contains the last three chapters of the first Master Edition and the first two chapters of the second Master Edition. Confusing, I know. But it's the same story, just collected differently. I still recommend the Master Editions, because of the refined artwork, which makes it easier to identify things.

En 4-6 capítulos que hay por tomo, siempre hay algo que te sorprende, pero el resto es paja o tiene un desarrollo muy lento. Estaba decidida a abandonar este manga desde hace unos días porque en 7 tomos casi no ha pasado nada que influya en la trama principal y justo el último capítulo se queda interesante... En fin. De todas formas, no creo que lo continúe porque realmente me ha costado sacar ganas para siquiera leerme el medio tomo que me quedaba y he tardado un mes en leerme algo que habría leído en una tarde. Me daba muchísima pereza sabiendo lo que hay y me jode porque la historia en sí no está mal, pero llegué a Ajin por parecido con Tokyo Ghoul y a estas alturas éste ya me había volado la cabeza 80 veces. Además, creo que le falta mucha base que fundamente cosas que pasan o de la sociedad y cómo se comporta respecto a los Ajin.

Machiavelli needs to be looked at as he really was. Hence: Can Machiavelli, who makes the following observations, be Machiavellian as we understand the disparaging term? 1. So it is that to know the nature of a people, one need be a Prince; to know the nature of a Prince, one need to be of the people. 2. If a Prince is not given to vices that make him hated, it is unsusal for his subjects to show their affection for him. 3. Opportunity made Moses, Cyrus, Romulus, Theseus, and others; their virtue domi-nated the opportunity, making their homelands noble and happy. Armed prophets win; the disarmed lose. 4. Without faith and religion, man achieves power but not glory. 5. Prominent citizens want to command and oppress; the populace only wants to be free of oppression. 6. A Prince needs a friendly populace; otherwise in diversity there is no hope. 7. A Prince, who rules as a man of valor, avoids disasters, 8. Nations based on mercenary forces will never be solid or secure. 9. Mercenaries are dangerous because of their cowardice 10. There are two ways to fight: one with laws, the other with force. The first is rightly man’s way; the second, the way of beasts.

In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort.Written for J.R.R. Tolkien’s own children, The Hobbit met with instant critical acclaim when it was first published in 1937. Now recognized as a timeless classic, this introduction to the hobbit Bilbo Baggins, the wizard Gandalf, Gollum, and the spectacular world of Middle-earth recounts of the adventures of a reluctant hero, a powerful and dangerous ring, and the cruel dragon Smaug the Magnificent. The text in this 372-page paperback edition is based on that first published in Great Britain by Collins Modern Classics (1998), and includes a note on the text by Douglas A. Anderson (2001). Unforgettable!

Among Shakespeare's plays, "Hamlet" is considered by many his masterpiece. Among actors, the role of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, is considered the jewel in the crown of a triumphant theatrical career. Now Kenneth Branagh plays the leading role and co-directs a brillant ensemble performance.

This clear, subtly nuanced, stunning dramatization, presented by The Renaissance Theatre Company in association with "Bbc" Broadcasting, features such luminaries as Sir John Gielgud, Derek Jacobi, Emma Thompson and Christopher Ravenscroft. It combines a full cast with stirring music and sound effects to bring this magnificent Shakespearen classic vividly to life. Revealing new riches with each listening, this production of "Hamlet" is an invaluable aid for students, teachers and all true lovers of Shakespeare - a recording to be treasured for decades to come.

2nd reading: You know what, I liked this a little bit more after reading it again. It's possible that the crap I read before this made this seem better overall ... but, meh. Not bad.~Original review:I don't know man ... I finished this and started on the second volume and I feel like this might be one of those instances where I just don't get the hype. I also don't understand how this is already up to 11 volumes when (some spoilers for volume 2 as well) (view spoiler)[the main character "dies" in the first volume, (though I'm guessing, since I've read a bit of volume 2, that he somehow inhabits one of the Titans, so he's not really dead.) (hide spoiler)]

Storia: ☆-☆☆Disegni: ☆☆☆☆☆Visto che Berserk procedeva fin troppo speditamente (ma anche no) qualche anno fa Miura si è preso una pausa dal sua manga più famoso e si è dedicato a questa storia autoconclusiva (o no?) frullandoci dentro tutto quello che gli veniva in mente al momento: mitologia greca, Nausicaa nella valle del vento, l'Attacco dei Giganti (sta avendo successo, quindi posso farci soldi pure io), Final Fantasy, ecc.In fin dei conti, l'autore aveva bisogno di una boccata d'aria dal mondo tetro e nichilista di Berserk e questa storia è stata una lettura spensierata arricchita da disegni meravigliosi (Miura è un vero Maestro), peccato che alcuni feticismi che in teoria avrebbero dovuto far ridere mi abbiano invece fatto accapponare la pelle...Peccato, il world-building dell'ambientazione era notevole e con 4-5 volumi in più il wrestler Delos e la piccola Prome(teo) sarebbero stati due personaggi interessanti invece di una pseudo-parodia di Gatsu e Pak... ma visto il finale aperto potremmo vedere un seguito in futuro.Possibilmente dopo la fine di Berserk, ma ormai ho davvero perso le speranze di vederne la conclusione.

My re-read of Tsutomu Nihei's Blame after 15 years was a real good one.An original cocktail of genres where Robert A. Heinlein's Universe meets Manga, cyberpunk distopian, France-Belgium Bande Dessinée and bio-mechanic aberrations out from a H. R. Giger's nightmare.In a world rife with decay and destruction, set maybe on earth, maybe in the future, where the oppressive atmosphere concrete and steel closed environment is a main character and you can see how author was an architect before starting his mangaka career, Killy wanders this endless dungeon looking for the Net Terminal Genes, meeting scattered human survivors and fighting nightmarish silicon creatures with the help of his overpowered gun, scientist Tsubo and a few other characters met along his travel, almost a quest for a personal grail filled with twists, action, and lots of speechless splash-pages with Killy and his shadow wandering alone in this gloomy dark world.Storyline was a real meandering one, sometimes so confusing that I just had to go back and see if I missed reading something, but this Manga is a real hyper-detailed creepy graphic masterpiece, an open-eye nightmare leaving to the reader the final task to fill all the gaps and left open questions.An intense image-focused, sometimes incoherent, read with barely any dialogue where the ride is far more important than the ending.Maybe you are not going to like everything here, the ending was an half disappointment for me, but this is a real classic dark cyberpunk tale where you are the co-author of the story.Just read it and enjoy.

Not an adaptation of beat writer William S. Burrough's novel but a mix of biography and an interpretation of his drug- induced writing processes combined with elements of his work in this paranoid fantasy about Bill Lee, a writer who accidentally shoots his wife, whose typewriter transforms into a cockroach and who becomes involved in a mysterious plot in North African port called Interzone. Wonderfully bizarre, not unlike Burrough's books.

In getting the job, Ki-woo further learns that Mrs. Park is looking for an art therapist for the Parks' adolescent son, Da-song, Ki-woo quickly recommending his professional art therapist friend "Jessica", really Ki-jung who he knows can pull off the scam in being the easiest liar of the four Kims. In Ki-woo also falling for Da-hye, he begins to envision himself in that house, and thus the Kims as a collective start a plan for all the Kims, like Ki-jung using assumed names, to replace existing servants in the Parks' employ in orchestrating reasons for them to be fired. The most difficult to get rid of may be Moon-gwang, the Parks' housekeeper who literally came with the house - she Namgoong's housekeeper when he lived there - and thus knows all the little nooks and crannies of it better than the Parks themselves. The question then becomes how far the Kims can take this scam in their quest to become their version of the Parks.

In the early 17th century, Japan adopted strict isolation policies and severed almost all ties with foreign countries. In 1853, the US fleet commanded by Admiral Perry forced the doors open, leading to a modernization of the nation's sociopolitical systems and the eventual fall of the Shogunate. The samurai regime ended its life with the imperial restoration in 1868. That's what history tells, but in Gintama, that's not what happens. Instead of the US fleet, the country is stormed by spaceships coming from four corners of the universe and soon we see it occupied by extraterrestrials. The Shogunate has become a puppet of alien occupation armies. All samurais have been disarmed and reduced to temp workers with no skills who just try to make ends meet. Gintama is a story of a handyman named Gintoki, a samurai with no respect for rules set by the invaders, who's ready to take any job to survive.

George Orwell's timeless and timely allegorical novel—a scathing satire on a downtrodden society’s blind march towards totalitarianism.“All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.”A farm is taken over by its overworked, mistreated animals. With flaming idealism and stirring slogans, they set out to create a paradise of progress, justice, and equality. Thus the stage is set for one of the most telling satiric fables ever penned—a razor-edged fairy tale for grown-ups that records the evolution from revolution against tyranny to a totalitarianism just as terrible.  When Animal Farm was first published, Stalinist Russia was seen as its target. Today it is devastatingly clear that wherever and whenever freedom is attacked, under whatever banner, the cutting clarity and savage comedy of George Orwell’s masterpiece have a meaning and message still ferociously fresh.
