It's going well! Slowly, but it's not really hard, just very time-consuming work. XD I've read some of them! 20th/21st Century Boys and Pluto, that I can think of off the top of my head - oh, and I've been reading Billy Bat! That one is definitely - weird...
EVERYONE IN PLUTO IS MY FAVORITES. EVERYONE! But probably North No. 2. HE WAS SO SAD. HE JUST WANTED TO PLAY MUSIC. ;o;
It's pretty good? But it has been going some WEIRD places and it's still in progress, so it's kind of hard to make a judgment call. There's been some kind of uncomfortable random stuff with Hitler I don't know how to feel about but other things have been really good.
EPSILON IS ALSO VERY PRECIOUS ;o; ALL THE WONDERFUL ROBOT PEOPLE
Hah, it's been a while since I read 20th Century boys so I hardly remember anyone's names, but I really, really liked Sadakiyo. ;o; And Kyoko. KYOKO HAD THE BEST EXPRESSIONS.
It's just - very weird? Like one of the characters (who's not portrayed very positively, he's totally a creep) is a former Nazi who was about to be executed but then Hitler had him pulled out of the firing line and showed him his paintings and gave him a mission and was portrayed a little sympathetically, so it's just - it's very "WHERE ARE YOU GOING WITH THIS, NAOKI URASAWA." It's not enough to make me give up because I really, really want to see where all this other stuff is leading up to, but it was definitely not a comfortable moment...
