4.0 out of 5 stars My only regret is that there wasn't more., January 19, 2006
J. Torres nearly always crafts an entertaining story, but his characters really come to life with Miyazawa on art chores; he captures deftly the exuberance and excitement of the youthful cast and the wonder of a high school devoted to the super-powered. The characters are believable, likeable, and altogether worthwhile. The only real issue as I see it is that Torres sets up the story for further adventures (as none of the key plot points are really resolved) and yet there are no further adventures. It's always painful to see characters and stories left hanging, but especially so when they are worthwhile.

2.0 out of 5 stars Flat, and Lifeless Art., May 21, 2005
I picked this up from the library with high expectations. Yet, I was quite dissapointed. The art is a sort of westernized-manga, and though the plot is a good one, I felt that it was quite slow and boring in many parts. It's an entertaining read, but I wouldn't waste any money on it.
