A deadly typhoon, a mysterious creature and a girl who won’t quit. In 2020, a large creature rampages through Tokyo, destroying everything in its path. In 1959, Asa Asada, a spunky young girl from a huge family in Nagoya, is kidnapped for ransom—and not a soul notices. When a typhoon hits Nagoya, Asa and her kidnapper must work together to survive. But there’s more to her kidnapper and this storm than meets the eye. Asa and Nakaido fly out to take a closer look at the mysterious creature that has appeared off the coast of Japan. As the creature threatens them with its sharp teeth and spiky tail, Nakaido works to decipher his mentor’s notes and find its weakness. But their attempts to take down the beast are in vain when it makes its way for land!

The first volume in the series consisting of multiple consequential story/character arcs coming to a rising action head is also the best of the series thus far. Loads of Kaiju conflict as Asa faces her first real trial as a pilot with a neurotic researcher in tow; Kasuga, diverted by a predicament not of his own making but for which he becomes responsible; Miyako, finding herself in a spot of trouble after tailing her best friend, Yone; and the latter, whose encounter with an agency scout reveals her to be something of an accidental sexpot, belying her otherwise awkward, dorky personality, by way of her pursuit to break into the entertainment industry. Urasawa's practiced hand at balancing all these storylines and the editorial transitions between each is page-turning in its deftness.
