BB Project

Type: Manga

Status: Complete/Cancelled

Premise: The Black Boat Project is a tournament between rival gangs in the city of Kyoto, some of them want all the foreigners out of their country others want to live peaceably. In the underground an accommodation has been reached; once a year the beast fighters from each gang will participate in a tournament to decide the policy on immigrants and all the gangs must obey the outcome or suffer the united wrath of the opposing side. Frank is an exchange student from France who is more interested in video games and the local women then his schooling but once he gets pulled into the BB Project he finds that he may be better off putting his motivation into fighting rather than school instead (At leas he's got hi priorities straight...).

Thoughts: Street Fighter meets Dragon Ball Z. This manga is a great piece of work and has a real atmosphere and setting to it, you will come to like the characters rather quickly and the action is great. A top notch manga.

Prose: Great setting, lovely art, well translated, strong fight scenes, all in all a great fight story.

Cons: Nothing rely, but remember that this is an unrepentant fight story.

- Notes: Well crap. I can't believe they cancelled the series and just at a cliff hanger to, bad form people bad form.

9/10          (Frank is amazing FYI)
