Dimension W

Dimension W #2

by 岩原裕二

Obligé de faire équipe avec Mira pour lui apprendre les bases du métier de récupérateur, Kyoma l'emmène au musée du Central 47, sur les traces du mystérieux Loser. Ce criminel pas comme les autres, qui a l'habitude d'annoncer ses vols à l'avance et de rentrer à chaque fois bredouille, a en effet jeté son dévolu sur une statue sur le point d'être exposée...

Mais ce ne sont pas ses méfaits qui intéressent notre duo, seulement ses coils illégaux : tandis que Mira tente de mettre la main sur son matériel de piratage, Kyoma se lance à la poursuite de Loser dans le bâtiment. Hélas, l'intervention imprévue du directeur tourne à la catastrophe !

Entre Cowboy Bebop et Edgar détective cambrioleur, découvrez Dimension W, un polar d'anticipation explosif et funky !

Seem like this is going to be very episodic. I'm ok with that for now.

Quick thoughts: Nice capitalization off of volume 1's strong start. Not the direction I expected, but still great stuff.

Volume 2 was even better than volume 1. It's beginning to appear that Kyouma Mabuchi and Mira Yurizaki will be a sort of Holmes and Watson set in the future. The mysteries will drive the individual volumes with an overarching story in the background. On to volume 3.

Quite enjoyable! I like the mix of world building with a sense of adventure and changing characters and locations =)

Volume two starts with the climax of the Loser heist. The unraveling of this plot and how it was carried out is fascinating! Not to mention the identity of Loser and what his real purpose was. This plot is definitely one that will be continued throughout the series as we discover the importance of the number coils. And although we find out a bit more about Mabuchi and see a softer side of him, I’m still not overly keen on his character. The main story of volume two centred around the kids that mess around and prank Mabuchi and the score system that chains every civilian. I really enjoyed this story not to mention felt a little uneasy as it is not hard to imagine our world going down the same path. The plot is clever, appealing, and thought provoking. To end we get a little snippet of what the next volume has in store which really compels you to keep reading this series.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

The mysteries only get deeper and deeper as more and more characters reveal secrets about the coils. Secrets about dimension W; secrets about Mabuchi's past; secrets about Loser; secrets about Mira. We also get to explore the new society that the coils made possible, particularly the educational system. What other changes has society gone through since the discovery of Dimension W? All these questions!!! I need the next book!

This series has 16 volumes.

While still compelling, volume 2 doesn't bring too much in the way of story development. The beginning adds a bit of depth to the mystery of the coils, and then the rest of the book splits off into a filler mystery. A really fun series overall still - I just hope the next volume is a little more plot-heavy.

I forgot how good this was? I binged the series on Funimation months ago, before volume 1 of the manga was out in the US. So good.

I love Mabuchi and Mira! The story gets better and better and I'm so exicted for volume 3
