Book of Bantorra Collection 2

Book of Bantorra Collection 2
I had to think about this for awhile before writing the review. Obviously if anyone bought Collection 1 you have to buy Collection 2 to see the end of
the story. So this is not about whether anyone should purchase Collection 2 or not. My problem was what exactly do I say about Collection 2. The focus
is more on the Nolity character depicted on the cover artwork. But it soon takes a much darker tone I than even part one. I'm not going to spoil the
storyline so that's all I will say. It's how the story is wrapped up and brought to conclusion that had me scratching my head. In ancient Greece when
a playwrite couldn't decide how to end the story they would lower another actor to the stage on a platform as if he where a messenger decending from the
gods. Simply as a diversion so the audience wouldn't feal cheated in some way. I think the expression for that is "deus ex machina". Anyway I sort of
feal that is what happens at the end of Bantorra. Which accounts...

The Book of Bantorra Collection 2
The second collection was cool, very unique and interesting.A little humor, I have to admit the ending is an unforgettable I've never seen a ending like that. You will never regret buying The Book of Bantorra anime. It's that good

top notch
Excellent series and story with a newer bent. It's hard to find really superb titles anymore that aren't regurgitated plots from at least something that's already been done - but BofB pulls it off. I love Hamyuts, even her name...she is a bad-ass from the start (yes, we've seen the ultra strong female leads - she's just different.)

The story quickly, is about some rough and tumble "cosmic librarians" that help control the "books" we leave behind after dying. Throw in the bad guys who want "X" book for their own reasons and it's a 100%, full time job. Add a little "crazy as hell" acting director Hamyuts Maseta of the librarians, and we get some truly organic and quite spectacular fight scenes. (Without spoiling anything you can see, while our character line up cares about their respective jobs, most are in it just as much for the ability to throw a beating...and they're very good at it!) You have to wait a little while to see the back stories but it's well worth it...
