Mega Man Gigamix 3 Paperback – November 30, 2011

I've been a fan of Mr. Ariga's work before UDON blessed us with republishings in English. Of course I was floored that this series became available --and then added upon!-- after years of it's apparant conclusion! As far as we know, this is the conclusion, but one never knows what the future may hold for the Blue Bomber (boo! hiss! capcom politics), as Mr. Ariga still connects with fans to this day, and we frequently get little gems of his work in popular Rock-culture, such as the RockMan9 Arrange Album.While this is an awesome book, and I recommend all volumes, I cannot recommend this book as your first. Unlike the MegaMix series, which was like "mini episodes" in each book, the GigaMix series is similar to a "mini series", in it's own right. I don't want to spoil anything, so won't, but understand that this *VERY loosely* follows the MegaMan plots, timeline, and elements, and is a REMIX-- Meaning this is Mr. Ariga's take on the games, his views, his observations on how the robots would behave and their personalities, so purists or likers of the original content and designs may object to some of his work. I, personally, welcome his take on the characters, though at times, disapprove of some of his artistic views (PharaohMan, for example, ended up looking like Anakaris!). With that said, even if you know all about the games, go in order, as you'll only confuse yourself if you stray, ESPECIALLY in GigaMix.I really enjoyed this final book, though in reading, knew it was the last, and really hoped for more. My only complaint is that the MegaMix series had additional content like 4-panel mini comics, Robot Master descriptions, and interviews. Giga has bupkis. Again, start with the MegaMix series, and conclude it with this, the GigaMix series.

I love this book because it's exciting, time-killing and it's very good stories in them... I couldn't be more satisfied. I love and adore my new books! I would recommend these complete series (Megamix and Gigamix) to everyone who loves Mega Man. They are worth every dollar we pay for them. :oD

Exactly what it looks like!

Great book

This story finds Mega Man Mange storytelling at its best. The story is flawless and has real heart. This is a darker part of the story with Earth on the line and many Robots getting totally demolished from start to finish.

The amazing conclusion to Ariga's Megaman manga hexology. I love his art style and writing. While being darker than the games themselves, you can tell that Ariga really gets the true spirit of the Megaman series.

Came in quick looked bran new and what an amazing story ,those stardroids lol

I got this book as a gift for my niece's birthday. She said she was happy to get it and immediately started to read it. Product was well wrapped and arrived within a few days only.
