In Zero: The Beginning of the Coffin Volume 2, Dall-Young Lim begins to take on a more sinister and dark turn with the story-line of this PC game prequel. The beginning of the book focuses more on family life and how they're getting along after the events of the first volume.

Within the first 60 pages, mild fighting begins, and it only progresses on from there. Volume 2 takes a step forward in explaining the context of the books, just how much G a given person has, how much G a person would need to counteract certain attacks, and even what a G is. It really goes into depth with the story and explanations, and actually makes you feel like you completely understand what's going on thoroughly.

It's another sci-fi manga with a possibility of going to an epic story, but with the first read, I'm not so sure. Not a read for beginner manga readers; this book can get lengthy in terms of keeping your interest. For the advanced manga reader, pick this one up. The action will keep you buying more.
