Kent (2)

An intriguing introduction to the infamous kaiju, Gaea-Tima, who came 10 years ago and left in its wake not only destruction but a mysterious essence that allowed the beleaguered port city to rebuild again on the abundant marine life that thrived in the monster's wake.

This also tells the tale of Myako, who, having created tchotchkes of Gaea-Tima, has caught a little fame herself over the years. When another kaiju attacks, it starts a strange chain reaction tying her to Gaea-Tima’s return show more and ultimately, to its very existence.

Admittedly, for unknown reasons I’ve been drawn to entertainment featuring kaiju, having enjoyed both the Pacific Rim and recent Godzilla movies, not to mention having had a grand ole time reading The Kaiju Preservation Society. This first volume was a nice teaser to the mysterious Gaea-Tima and visually portrayed the tension, emotions, and action in a fun and interesting way. I obviously liked what I got and look forward to the next installment!
