| Review |
This is an American edition of the "They Were 11" manga. It's a space-going SF mystery story. Also, it being a shoujo manga, one of the crew seems to be rather feminine... This is an interesting example of a shoujo "action" manga, with the uniquely shoujo balance of action and human interest. The artwork is in a somewhat distinctive style, and the eleven characters are well differentiated (which is more than can be said for a lot of manga!). What makes this good is the characters and the story; the science element is decidedly wobbly. [G.Cowie, BSc, MSc] |
