Boxers

I thought the ending was a bit rushed. There's a lot of moral ambiguity here, and I have to say I found it tough to get into because I never really wanted Bao to succeed. His rebellion is based on nationalism and exclusionary thinking, and I couldn't get behind it, even though on a personal level, I respect that he was trying to protect his way of life.

The artwork is great, and I enjoyed the designs of the gods that the fighters become.

Rating these kinds of things is harder for me because sometimes there are things about a culture that just rubs me the wrong way and in this case it's historical legends and beliefs. And like most historical things, women are often if not sources of evil, reasons why good men fail. And that is something I never enjoy or like reading about and negatively affects my experience. So I'm not going to rate this title.
