Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, Vol. 5 by Kaori Inoue, Izumi Evers, Walden Wong, Hayao Miyazaki, Joe Yamazaki, Rachel Thorn
3.0
It's still a love/hate relationship with this series, but I'm going to truck through to the end. In this volume, the mutant spores are spreading and the forest is beginning to grow in the villages. Thousands are dying and there doesn't really seem to be a happy end in sight.
My favourite parts about this are the environmental musings, from both Nausicaa and other characters, as they destroy their world yet again. It's an interesting idea to be writing a story set in a future where the world has already been destroyed once and rebuilt, only to be on the brink of destruction again.
