b>Genre staying power: A manga about war and redemption, Marginal Operation balances high-octane combat with scenes of connection and humor, endearing this band of misfits to the reader. The serialised storytelling also encourages returning for the next volume!
Artwork: The artwork in Marginal Operation is in-line with the seinen demographic style of greater realism and finer detail than younger-oriented action series. The art style and storylines present crossover appeal with the western comics audience.
