What They Say
It’s Levius versus Oliver in the championship match at the Southern Slam, the top tournament in Mechanical Martial Arts. Before the fight, Levius learns that steam syndrome may be endangering Oliver’s life, and that only Levius can save him. But when the starting bell rings, Levius finds out just how dangerous the champion can be, steam syndrome or no!
Content: (please note that content portions of a review may contain spoilers):
I wanted to see an explosive ending to the match between Natalia and Balthus, but I was hoping that I would at least be able to make out what was going on in the match. Nakata’s art is typically strong, he is a great artist, but the cluttered artwork in the final moments of this matchup is a chaos of phantom imagery that evokes a tornado of debris rather than two humans battling it out. It is shonen bullshit at its peak, and I couldn’t even tell the characters apart from the scenery.
