Hi Score Girl, Rensuke Oshikiri's love letter to arcade gaming, finally comes to print! Read the manga that inspired the Netflix Original anime series! The year is 1991, and the world is on the cusp of the golden age of 2-D fighting games. And on the outskirts of town, in a shady arcade that's a second home to delinquents and businessmen, one girl descends with dignity into her seat at the game cabinet... Her name is Akira Oono, and she's about to humiliate hardcore gamer Haruo Yaguchi, who fancies himself something of an arcade king, at Street Fighter! Will Haruo ever live down losing to a girl from his class?!
Overall,Hi Score GirlVolume 1 gets off on the wrong foot with some unlikeable characters and odd designs for its cast. However, if you like the anime adaptation or have an interest in the history of video games, its certainly worth a look. Read Full Review
