Manga: Pluto

[Apraxhren]

Quite an interesting chapter, although it felt quite disappointing. Gesicht just letting Abra walk away without any more questions even though he knew he lied. Then the same thing again when he learn of Sahad, although he has a look on his face like he recognizes the name. The writing appeared sub par in those points, hopefully the next chapter will clear those up.

On a slightly off topic note: The robot being named Mohammad Ali, seemed very inappropriate. Maybe just me and my love of everything past, maybe the author just doesn't know any Arab sounding names. Although the part of "My balance has been bad since it got busted in the war" looks like a reference to Ali's Parkinson's disease.

Remember that Gesicht doesn't have any authority in that part of the world, so he has to let him go away, especially since he's a law abiding robot.

Hahaha, I liked the Mohammad Ali refference though... this is not the first time he has paid some sort of tribute to an icon. I know there's mention of Hulk Hogan in 20th Century Boys. There's also the Incredible Hulk in Monster, though the character remembers him as "Magnificent Steiner", the premise is the same though.
