Appleseed, Book 2: Prometheus Unbound, Vol. 2 Book

I think overall this collection is always good, but it does drag a bit as some other reviewer mentioned. Overall though it's simply world building and frankly it focuses on Olympus itself. I think that's what Masamune was intending and that's fine, but again the only real critique of Appleseed is that there is a whole world out there and I wish we saw more of it. That's another thing I disliked about Ghost in the Shell overall. The anime goes more in-depth in the world around them but overall doesn't go with the whole world in some respects. However this does get into the more vagaries of human vs. bioroids and how they look and feel in the real world led by "pure" humans and the shadowy world of Olympus, which even in the utopia there are still vipers amongst the bushes. And given the overall plot of Appleseed this book still does a good job of it.
