This one was a little heavy on the battles and a little light on plot, it seemed; nothing seemed like it wasn't necessary for later plot development, it's just that this particular volume was a little dull compared to the ones that came before. It's all even richer and more interesting than the film, though.

Inhaling this because it's manga, and because it's awesome. Not enough time today, I don't think, to finish off book four, but this story's absolutely beautiful.

This is such an amazing work of fiction! The world building is simply astonishing and the characters are all very well thought out and portrayed. The ending of this volume left me in tears.

I really wish there was a continuation of the movie Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind because the story is so amazing and beautiful more people need to know about it!!!

I read this graphic novel for the Winter Cramathon 2016 and it completed the challenge:
-Read a graphic novel/manga

This one is basically another large battle, but the detail is incredible and Nausicaa is a brave and compassionate protagonist.
