Mamoru Nagano has devoted good part of his life to create this fantasy, the Five Star Stories. It is outstanding in its wild imagination, the detailed mechanics and interesting characters. While not for every reader, it fits the mania's taste extremely well, and a must read for those who are looking to really get into comic books. Mamoru Nagano is generally considered one of the best mecha-designers in Japan and this is THE work to represent himself. Out standing collection of Robots, intriguing plot and one and only. Very perverse and gory, with aritist's fetishism showing maybe a little too much.
