And not only a linear mystery story, but the story also has tons of conundrums. The series is full of mystery and suspense. Gesicht attempts to solve this case of string murders of robot and human deaths worldwide where all the victims have objects shoved into or positioned by their heads, imitating horns. To investigate the case, enters our protagonist Gesicht, a highly advanced German robot inspector working for Europol. One day, Mont Blanc, the world’s one of the 7 most advanced robots, dies mysteriously. And to prevent robots from overtaking the human race, they are designed not to hurt or kill any human being. The robots became more humanlike with time and started to manifest human emotions like sadness, love, and hatred. ***** follows the story of a futuristic world where robots and humans live together. ***** is only 65 chapters, making it easy to read in no time, and is great from start to finish.

However, Urasawa reinterpreted the story as a suspenseful murder mystery starring Gesicht, a Europol robot detective trying to solve the case of a string of robot and human deaths. The series is based on Osamu Tezuka’s Astro Boy, specifically “The Greatest Robot on Earth” story arc, and named after the arc’s chief villain, *****. ***** is no less than Urasawa’s other masterworks in terms of quality, narrative, themes, and those classic twists.

***** is a short, 8 volume manga series written and illustrated by the great mangaka Naoki Urasawa who made cult-classic masterpieces like Monster, 20th Century Boys, Billy Bat, and ***** itself. And after all, ***** is written and illustrated by Naoki Urasawa, so don’t expect any less! URASAWA x TEZUKA ***** is certainly what you need when you’re trying to get into manga. Bizarre story, perfect characters, mind-bending mystery and thrill, and a genius execution. Despite not being that big of a bookworm, I was sucked by *****’s overwhelming story and direction, reading it day and night, non-stop! ***** has got everything. I casually started with the first chapter, and dang boy, I loved that shit.

So one day, searching for a good manga to start with, I found out about Naoki Urasawa’s *****, the first manga I read, and damn, that was good. So since I started watching anime, I profoundly relished reading mangas.
