Once again we are presented with human cruelty. This time, it's yakuza, with no redeeming qualities at all. Also, were are presented with shallowness and materialism, through a colleague of a girl, who, of course, is the exact opposite and is pretty much a saint. Well, at least the saint girl showed, that you can love and be absolutely happy with an ordinary, nothing-special man. Aren't we all kind of ordinary? I loved that.
Inuyashiki feels helpless against death, or is he really helpless? He's deeply affected by the cruelty and can't fathom, how can someone do such terrible things to another human being. A question, that is still relevant. It seems that we are bombarded by cruelty in news, stories, movies, games, life etc. But I guess, when it touches your environment personally, when you really sympathise, it still affects you on a deep level and you ask the same question.

I felt like volume 3 didn't really include any of the interesting personal complexity of the characters, though I did appreciate the relationship between the kidnapped girl and her boyfriend/husband (though I can't help wondering if this was supposed to be fan service, since the girl was pretty and the guy was a low-level, unattractive but nice guy salary man). I'm sure that this volume would be well-received by those reading the series who are more interested in the action aspect, and who are more a fan of Hiroya Oku's more "realistic" (ugly people with the strength being robots) art style than I am.

Horrendous. Who the fuck chose the rating for this?? No child should ever read this. It starts off with a rape, and then a rape victim dying from forced overdose, then another kidnapping with attempted rape!! This is mature! I am so frustrated with the hero because he's one of those horrible wimps who won't even kill the worst scum that exists.

ok a whole bunch of crazy went down in this volume. Finally getting to the character development that is coming from Inuyashiki Ichiro (the old man).

Zeichenstil - wie immer top. Nun beginnt anscheinend der Kampf gegen die Mafia! Hoffentlich wird seine Familie nicht in Gefahr geraten (obwohl diese doch ziemlich arrogant ihm gegenüber war).
