Der Startschuss für das Trans-Hermes-Code-Rennen ist gefallen und Haruyuki nimmt mit dem festen Entschluss daran teil, Kuroykihime und seine Legionskameraden aus Nega Nebulus zum Sieg zu führen. Es ist die erste Mission für Nega Nebulus, bei der auch Kuroyukihimes alte Freundin Sky Raker dabei ist. Die Teams schenken sich nichts – und dann mischt sich auch noch die Forschungsgruppe Beschleunigung ein, die natürlich nichts Gutes im Sinn hat …!
Ok donc ce manga est une adaptation d'une série, de romans si j'ai bien suivi. On termine ce huitième tome sur une "aventure" qui était amorcée au tome précédent, mais la fin reste...très ouverte ! Frustrant si vous avez accroché au monde car ce n'est pas une fin, mais plutôt l'introduction au "coeur" d'une action. Sinon, c'est juste étrange et un peu abrupte. Après un début correct, un peu déçue par la façon dont je termine cette série
Even though the manga only get up to the 5th LN volume, this was a pretty good end point. I liked how Chrome Disaster was brought back through the parasitic line (but not so much the sheer overcoming it with will power/main character OP-ness.) I was also surprised when Raker was actually the last leg (pun intended) for the Race and not Crow/Haru just because he has wings and is the main character. Although the leg fiasco with Raker was kind of weird, overcoming her fears and regaining her legs to soar to the finish line was a great touch. Of course it ends cheesily but points you to the LN to find out about Rust and what'll happen with Haru becoming the 6th Chrome Disaster.
not enough of my girl Kuroyukihime in this one but -
I can't believe this is the end of the manga series, and even though the LNs continue (the manga only follows up through volume 5 of the LNs) I will miss the visuals, especially of Sa-chan.
In this final volume of Accel World, the race continues and gets some new dynamic with the introduction of a new goal. In this volume, I especially noticed how good the facial expressions of the characters look. Even though it was a bit cliché, it was cute how . I loved to see how all the characters come together at the end, giving the manga some found family vibes. It’s great to see how much they all developed in the course of the story.
All in all, my feelings towards Accel World are mixed. On the one side, I really enjoyed the world building and the designs of the avatars. On the other side, there’s the absolutely terrible depiction of women and little girls which ruined the series a bit for me.
