EASY READ, ACTION PACKED!!

These is a really good manga series. It has constant nonstop action. The action pretty much almost never stops!! I gave it for stars because its good, but it is not as good as Death Note and Naruto, but it is still good, just on a lower level.

A stand-out manga that becomes addictive.

Okay, let's suppose you're walking to school one morning, feeling perfectly fine despite the fact that you know you're heading to hours of boredom, when a kid you've never even seen before tells you he wants to kill you. The kid reveals his arm, and it transforms into a lethal killing scythe. What do you do? Welcome to the world of Ryo Takatsuki, as displayed in Project Arms, Vol.1. A secret organization, Egrigori, is pursuing Ryo Takatsuki and three other kids with certain superweapons for arms, called (get ready), ARMS!!! In the first volume you get a heavy dosage of action, cunning fight scenes, and an addictive plot. It's a very solid story that contains many aspects of mastery. The only thing that subtracts from the rating is that, other than the action and fighting scenes, the characters are drawn to look more like sketches, although you can clearly tell one from the other. Keep in mind- this manga is hard to find. If you happen to see it at Borders or some other book store, BUY IT! You may not see it again for awhile!

Addictive entertainment

This book continues the addictive "Project Arms" series. This book is even better than the two before with lots of action and intrigue. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have-- I just can't stop reading this series.

Awesome action, good story ...

This is a very solid, action-packed manga ... the characters are pretty good, they are interesting to see interact. The story keeps you guessing with the intervention of the military, and the truth behind the Arms and the nano-technology. Good stuff.
