All You Need Is Kill (All You Need Is Kill Manga, #1-2)
Ryōsuke Takeuchi
When the alien Mimics invade, Keiji Kiriya is just one of many recruits shoved into a suit of battle armor called a Jacket and sent out to kill. Keiji dies on the battlefield, only to be reborn each morning to fight and die again and again. On his fifth iteration, he gets a message from a mysterious ally—the female soldier known as the Full Metal Bitch. Is she the key to Keiji's escape or his final death?

0 0I found this manga adaptation of Takeuchi's "All You Need is Kill," itself the inspiration for underrated Tom Cruise / Emily Blunt sci-fi thriller "Edge of Tomorrow," engaging, but hard to read. Though translated to English, it wasn't reformatted for the Western reader. Though I tried to train my eyes to read in the proper direction, I had difficulty adapting to the format and decoding the dense imagery offered by the book.
