This is the story of a group of boys who try to save the world! As boys, Kenji and his friends came up with a bunch of stories about an evil organization bent on world destruction. As adults, someone is now turning their fantasies into reality! Reads R to L (Japanese Style), for audiences T+. Humanity, having faced extinction at the end of the 20th century, would not have entered the new millennium if it weren't for them. In 1969, during their youth, they created a symbol. In 1997, as the coming disaster slowly starts to unfold, that symbol returns. This is the story of a group of boys who try to save the world. There once was a hero who stood against evil. He sacrificed himself to save the world, and everyone believed he died on Bloody New Year's Eve. But eighteen years later, when the entire world is under the control of the enigmatic figure known as the Friend, the hero comes back! Kenji is back and is heading for Tokyo, where the Friend is preparing his next horrific plan. Meanwhile, Kanna and the rest of Kenji's group make their move toward the final battle! Could it finally be time for justice to rise once again?… (mais)

This was convoluted story..... All story-lines are now converging, we see Maruo finding Frog and Kiriko and her vaccine, evil bully twins Yanbo and Mabo helping dr Shikishima to build an actual bipedal robot in order to destroy Friend's flying saucers (aka "Aliens" that spread the virus), Kanna ,Otcho and Yukiji make a move against the Friend and question is will they succeed.

In the meantime Kenji approaches the Tokyo while ominous flying saucers start to pop up all over the Japan bringing fear into everyone's hearts.

Art as always is great.

Highly recommended. ( )

The deathcount is promisingly high, and best of all, everyone gets to go to mars! I laughed when I discovered that big robots are still in fashion in Japan as of 2018. Thank goodness. We should never be without big robots and bowling alleys. I don't care what anyone else thinks. Right, God? Right.

I'm so happy that Kenji's alive and on his way to the big showdown. The homeless man with a guitar versus the mad ESPer demigod who is now the president of Earth.

How can anything that feels so down to earth and realistic be, in actual fact, one of the pulpiest stories I've ever read? Hell if I know, but Urasawa is pulling it off. ( )

So boþ Kenji & Kanna are demigods. Kinda letdown, but still interesting. ( )
