Oh wow. I'm really impressed. This is a solid start!
Urasawa's Monster is what got me into anime and manga, so I'm always eager to read his work. With this new series I've revived my admiration for his art. He's awesome!!
for the whole series: it starts of strong with its ups and downs, the best part is shortly after the first timeskip. After the 2nd timeskip it kind of goes to shit.
Great art throughout though.
Also there is a scene where a character is asked if he gained weight and he replies my suit is packed with explosives which i need to remember as a reply
