This was a really great first volume of manga and I am so excited to go onto the next in the series.
I was already very familiar with this story from watching both versions of the anime more times than I can count but it is a great story with a fun start and lots of intrigue. It was really cool to see Arakawa's original art and story. I loved the art in this book and the fun humour some of which wasn't featured in the anime.
I definitely recommend this book both for fans of the anime and people new to the story.
