We're taking a look at Masamune Shirow's comedic sci-fi fantasy space opera epic: Orion
THE STORY SO FAR:
Everyone fucked up: Seska is trying to find the red seal scrolls to fulfill her (now resurrected) father's dying wish of restraining the god of destruction, Susano, whom he had originally summoned to destroy the karma-swallowing dharmaquation he stole from Dr. Hebime. Meanwhile Susano and Seska's dad are in the Imperial palace, retreating after failing to eliminate princess Kushinata, the demigoddess whose sacrifice will trigger the nine-headed super-naga who will devour all bad karma in the galaxy. He is currently fighting the Eight Wizards from Hell, now under the command of Dr. Hebime, which were summoned by Seska with the nine-headed super-naga dharmaquation (which has been encrypted into her) to stop him. But little does she know that the equation has been written wrong and will actually multiply the evil it swallows and manifest as a malevolent dragon that will destroy the universe if she isn't stopped.

now shit's about to get real
so far pretty much everything went wrong.
That's a good example of how a story where the characters' failures actually make for a more interesting story than if they had done things right.

Seska's so much fun.
She's a complete brat, she's dumb as a sack of brick and arrogant on top of that, but stuff always blows up in her face so she's fun instead of being irritating.

Orion is Shirow's most visually impressive manga (at least, the most impressive in a good way) and it's a fucking shame it doesn't get as much recognition as his other works

Im up to here nowTo be honest, I am having a hard time keeping interest. The art is inspiring, and the action is pretty cool. But the story has gone off in a direction I am less interested in. Up to the point where they summon Susano, I found things very fascinating. Then the gods came in an everything becomes so super powered. A lot of times the more powerful the characters are, the less interesting things become.
