*meh* I couldn't get through this.

It's boring and confusing and just not for me.

The art is good though.

実家のガレージで眠ってたのを正月に発掘して持って帰ってきた。これに比べると Stand Alone Complex は内容が薄いよねーとか思う。実は士郎正宗の考え方ってどうも私と合わない部分が多くて、この本も20年前に読んだときは「いやいやいや」とか言いながら読んだんだけど、まあそういうとこも含めてためになる本でなかろうか。あと、現実の社会ってSFと違って20年経ってもあんま変わらんよのう、とか。
