Choujin X, Vol. 9

超人X [Chōjin X] #9

by Sui Ishida

Best friends Tokio and Azuma do everything together, even if most of the time it feels like Tokio is just stumbling along in Azuma’s cooler, more talented footsteps. But when they’re attacked one night by a superhuman mutant called a choujin, Tokio finally has a chance to shine—by turning into a choujin himself!

Tokio’s recent side quest to rescue Palma Shishinegura turns out to have been worth the effort when she’s able to help them with a little problem—Yamato Mori needs to interrogate the drug dealer who’s been pushing Zola’s opium in Old Market, but he was hacked to pieces right in front of them! What’s a little death when a Zombie Maker owes you a favor?

I loveeee Palma. I felt like Ely had grown and changed in that volume as well. I seriously need to reread the previous volumes because I can't remember shit about the different prophecies tho

[K · Rating 4 out of 5]

Do I like Tokio and Palma or Tokio and Ely more??? Ugh. This is so difficult. The prophecies we are hearing about are vastly different. Who is right? Who is wrong? I think both sides are concealing the truth. Which we won’t know the real thing until whatever is suppose to happen happens. And if it doesn’t happen then we know the truth.

Sometimes you live long enough to see yourself become the villain. Sora knew this was coming for her.

“Damned vulture. You’re a reaper”

There’s Tokio’s savior complex coming thru again. Sometimes you can’t save everyone esp those who don’t want to be saved. I think it’s going to be interesting to see how he reacts to not being able to save someone right in front of him. I think it’ll cause some big character growth.

He’s got some serious parallels between years and major world events actually happening during those times.

We all leading up to something! His last two series ended at volumes 14 and 16. So we might be getting close to the end here?

Bon ça va péter dans le prochain tome vu dans le build up. Dans l'ensemble, un début de shonen solide et cool à lire. Le sens du macabre de cet auteur est encore plus poussé qu'avant et ça serait peut être un des défauts principal. Ça se repose pas mal sur cela et de ce fait, certains des combats ne sont marquant que par cet aspect. Des personnages chelou et décalé mais qui arrive à être attachant pour certains vu le contexte qui nous ait conter. J'attends le moment où ça va partir full mode drame et questions philosophique avec impatience.

«Se non sei convinto, allora non combattere. Se non sei determinato... potresti prendere la decisione sbagliata nel momento cruciale.»

Grazie alla caparbietà di Tokio, fortunatamente la missione dei papaveri è andata a buon fine. Palma si è rivelata un personaggio molto utile, oltre che interessante, è stata una buona aggiunta alla Yamatomori. Invece, Zora rimane un mistero e i turbamenti di Tokio sulla sua profezia turbano anche me. Quale sarà la strada giusta da seguire? Le ultime tavole del volume sono molto intense e forse anticipano qualcosa di brutto.

Sui Ishida's art keeps getting better each volume. Ely and Tokio's interactions are nice. Seeing how developed and real the characters act and behave is impressive.

In which our characters are manipulated by a character endorsing the Übermensch idea and in which the author appeals to the lowest common denominator with base jokes and clichés
