[QUOTE="Apollo Tenzen, post: 41783, member: 271"] First off, the fights. Forget your shonen tropes of magic powers and screaming for ten chapters. [I][B][SIZE=6]Holyland[/SIZE][/B][/I][B][SIZE=6] [/SIZE][/B]depicts street fights with an almost surgical precision. The author, Kouji Mori (Miura Kentarou's best friend, by the way – that should tell you something about the quality), clearly knows his stuff. He breaks down every punch, every stance, every grapple. You learn about boxing, karate, judo, kickboxing, even wrestling. It's like a goddamn manual for street combat, but in a way that’s never preachy or boring. It respects the craft. But that's just the surface. What truly sets [I]Holyland[/I] apart is its unflinching look at the [B]psychology[/B] of violence and self-discovery.
