  The cynic in me wanted to believe this book would be horrible. There's no way a manga based on one of my favorite movies of all time, written by one of my favorite writers, could ever hope to live up to my expectations. And it didn't. It absolutely shattered them. We rarely hand out anything above a 9.5 here at IGN, and there's debate as to whether this book could truly be called a manga or not, but excellence is excellence, and this book has that in abundance. If you're a fan of the movie, don't hesitate to pick this up. If you have no idea what I've been rambling about for the past three to four paragraphs, get to your nearest Netflix or Best Buy and find out what you've been missing out on all these years.
