Review:
This was quite an original manga! I’d never read any of the JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure stories before this one, so I didn’t know what to expect. This was a fun story, with many horseback riders racing across the U.S. in 1890 for a 50 million dollar prize! The graphics were very detailed, but sometimes it was difficult to figure out what was happening with so much happening in each panel.
Steel Ball Run, Vol. 1 is an exciting manga!
Thank you Viz Media for providing a copy of this book as part of a paid campaign!
