An excellent continuation from the last volume. This is still very episodic, but it's an enjoyable work. If you're expecting a long running epic like 20th Century Boys or Pluto, that isn't what you'll find here. However, Urasawa's excellent art, and his attention to detail in his plotting and characterization is in full display. The one significant unfortunate note in this series is with the abusive boyfriend in the volume's final chapter is an African-American man who feels like too much of a stereotype. ( )
