tawfek's review against another edition

Apparently friend is otcho but i am not sure yet, since it would be weird to give the answer to the whole conspiracy this fast, and i think they recruited his sister (somehow) and she is responsible for the germ warfare, the virus or larvae or whatever that is sucking all the blood from human bodies.
Naoki Urasawa just became my second favorite manga writer who i will read all his works, i think he is the best to do it among the manga writers i read so far, the second would be Hiroya Oku (Gantz), since the guy who wrote berserk isn't really a candidate for me, he just made one thing and that's it, i like his writing style even more than hiroya oku, but at the same time to be able to conceive one idea only in your life, isn't really what makes you a legendary writer in my opinion.
I love his characters and the complexity of his story, in two volumes he introduced more interesting characters than most writers do in their whole series.
Everything intertwines to present this wonderful story, past present and future...
I read stories about kids before and seen how they grow up and all that, but Naoki Urasawa just took it to a whole another level.
First of all its realistic, its just kids playing and thinking stupid things and making shit up, they grow up to be teenagers they have aspirations, most of them fail, they settle into different lives as adults, but one whacky kid decides to really go on with their plans as kids for world conquest, to take simple kids imagination and transform it into a story for world conquest on a large scale, and one of the best conspiracies I've read so far, its just brilliant, not only that he actually has 6 other manga series out there most of them come highly recommended.
God might be one of my favorite characters of all times, i wish to see more of him, he is so real and simple, gifted to see the future of all things it seems, and he just knows what to do every time to make things work, and save his friends, and stay alive, and he doesn't know how he does it, it just happens, such a brilliant character i love it, imagine if they just told kenji someone bleeding to death wants you, he wouldn't give a fuck, he doesn't know the person, and its homeless people who are trying to get him to go somewhere.
I also loved the brilliant detective that died, he actually figured it all out, and paid his life for it, and his portrayal as the cop who just does his job, and forgets his family, a lot of men do this in their lives, they get so engaged in their jobs, and forget to care for their families, your kids won't love you because you put food on the table, its love that they need relationships are like plants, if you don't water them, they wither and eventually die.
I blabbered on and on and i didn't even speak my mind on all the things Naoki discusses with his work, this manga actually takes triple the time any other manga i ever read took from me, but i love it, and i feel its only going to get better.
