It's been a bit, but I finally got around to reading the second installment of Akira.
Tetsuo is still crazy, but he's on the loose now. He's obsessed with facing Akira, and he's discovering more powers. The other "children" are trying to keep him contained, but he's just too powerful. Meanwhile, Kaneda and Kei are trying to intercept him as well.
This story is a bit different from the other ones I'm reading in that it isn't broken down into sections. The whole book is what you get. That's nice, but it pushes me to get it done faster. There aren't easy places to stop. It's not any kind of criticism, just an observation.
I'm still on board with this one, but where does it fall in the list of what I'm currently trying to read? I'd say Berserk has priority, but I'm trying to get those when they're a reasonable price. Then we have Dr. Stone and Akira. I wanted to read Fullmetal Alchemist, and it popped up on WebToon, so I'm caught up with it on that platform. Finally, when we were moving my daughter into her apartment over the weekend, one of her friends told me his favorite manga was Frieren. It sounds really interesting, so I think I'll be looking into it eventually.
So, saying all that, I think Akira is in the second position. I'm anxious to find out what will happen with Kei and Kaneda after they've gotten away from the Olympic site. Good Book!
