Geobreeders Book Five: Big Trouble at Tokyo Towerby Sheena McNeilReviews may contain information that could be considered 'spoilers'. Readers should proceed at their own risk. Publisher
Credits Grade: 4 In this graphic novel, the Phantom Cats are attacking the greatest point of paranormal activity in Japan. Kagura must try to stop them (along with all the military forces Japan can spare) before Tokyo Tower falls.I have no clue how the title fits this series, nor do I quite understand the series ... and maybe that's because I've only read book five. It was an ok read which thankfully had lots of action. The art is well-done and choreographed, but it's nothing special. However, Akihiro Ito does actually draw backgrounds which so many other artists like to slack on. Ito also draws expressions quite well. I wasn't very excited by the read — despite all the action — in fact, I kept wanting to put it down. This is not a series I would buy for any reason (art, story, etc). There are just too many better series I could spend my money on. It's not the worst out there though, so if you just need something, anything to read, then Geobreeders mights seem fun.
