Mobile Suit Gundam Thunderbolt, Vol. 20 (Volume 20)

Awesome manga to read

One thing Thunderbolt has done very well is fixed a lot of the problems the EFF has.They now have good Amphibious MS, a much better fleet with proper MS carriers and what looks like much more competent leadership. But it’s all for nothing due to Plot Armour!

Great volume, as always. But... the book is printed upside down and backwards. Not backwards as in manga backwards, but backwards as in the first page of the book is behind the back cover, with the barcode on it. Can still be read, but still.Also, having finished the volume, I have to say the author is milking the "Psycho Zaku's" abilities for all its worth, and it is getting downright ludicrous. In story, the Psycho Zaku has such a high and fast reaction time because it uses the pulses from the pilots nevrvs or something like that. But, like I said, it is getting ludicrous. I mean really, this volume has a Psycho Zaku kick a missile, than fly off before it explodes. A missile that is most likely, since it is in space, flying at well over mach speed. Then, three Psycho Zaku's avoid a full fleet size barrage of beam/laser weapons. Beams moving at the speed of light. I mean come on.

Man, I reading this makes me wish they translate faster.In the meantime, Viz should license and translate Mobile Suit Gundam Thunderbolt Side Story to satisfy the wait. Side Story has 4 volumes.

Like many others who have already reviewed this issue, the cover and pages are not in the correct orientation. I hope Viz fixes this for future printings.
