Review # 1 was written on 2010-08-06 00:00:00 Carolyn Alder Kaori Ozaki, Immortal Rain, vol. 8 (Tokyopop, 2006) The last (as of this writing) volume of Immortal Rain to be published in English (the series runs 11 tankobon in total, but with the demise of Tokyopop, this may be the last we ever get in English) took me almost six years to get my hands on. I can kind of see why'this looks to be the volume where the weight of the myriad threads of plot Ozaki has been balancing so carefully in the last few volumes may have borne down too hard. While it's still a solid, action-packed series, it seems to lose its way a bit here'which is odd considering this is the volume where a lot of formerly disparate pieces start coming together into what I assume is the final story arc. It's great to be back with these characters again'I read vol. 7 way back in July of 2007, and I've missed Machika, Rain, and the crew something fierce. And maybe that's part of why this volume seems a bit of a letdown. *** |
Review # 2 was written on 2014-08-01 00:00:00 David Glista Now that was an intense volume. Also no more after this? I mean for English anyway? Really? Even after that ending. Oh right. Kind of disappointing. Well, this was quite the series. At least from what I read so far anyway. Rain and Machika are an interesting duo, and maybe couple? I would love to continue the series but alas, no it looks like. Anyway, enough of that, give this series a read. Glad I got to read the ones these. Interesting twists and turns, setting wise, story are also good as of course the art and characters. Well done, series. |
