2 Hits From Naoki Urasawa

Postby theanimeguy » Mon Feb 09, 2009 6:59 am

So in a week 1/2 both 20th Century Boys and Pluto by Naoki Urasawa will hit store shelves. Excited? I am, but just one question. I notice they are both rated OT, does that mean they are just as adult as Monster?

I can't wait to get my hands on 20CB.

As for the maturity level, I haven't read Monster yet so I can't say if it's more or less, but from what I remember it's mostly language and a suggestive poster.

20th Century Boys isn't as full of the same kind of content that Monster has, but it still has some of it. From what I recall, there's a little nudity, but I don't remember any of it being terribly sexual. Anyways, I'm ridiculously excited. XD I've already got the first volume of 20CB headed to me in the mail. XD

I want to get them, but I have no money. =(

I haven't even finished my Monster collection... finished that and 20th CB though.

Since everyone keeps touching on 20th Century Boys <s>even though Pluto is CLEARLY the superior manga</s>, Pluto also has violence, but a bit less than Monster, and negligible sexuality.

Oh, my poor, poor wallet. Totally going to wait for a con and see if I can buy a huge chunk of Pluto at half price....
