Rating: 5 [ Incredible! ]
Well at least this is a more complete version of the film than the American one, I'm a great lover of anime and manga, and you can be sure that I loved reading Star Wars in this highly expressive style, This volume features many scenes scripted that never made even to the Special Edition.

Certainly artist Hisao Tamaki took some liberties like changing a little bit of Princess Leia's look, but I can asure you that it looks great and true to the original style... hey! by the way if George Lucas got inspired to create Star Wars by watching Akira Kurosawa's films then you can be sure this is a wonderful adaptation!


Rating: 5 [ Beautiful and entertaining. ]
This is a truly wonderful adaption. I love the style, and the whole thing is just so good you won't care that you've already seen the movie. It's like, you can really look over the good parts, taking in every detail. Thank God they kept it in black and white! The artist does an incredible job with shading and character likeness, and you can almost hear Mark Hamill's voice... This manga also includes a flash back and a cool pic of the sandtroopers on dewbacks. I'd recommend this for Star Wars fans in general, Japanese or American.

Rating: 4 [ The Star Wars comic for people who hate Star Wars comics! ]
Remember when Star Wars was actually fun? When the merchandising didn't overshadow the actual movie? When Colonel Sanders didn't wield a lightsaber? If not, read the manga version -- and you will. Hisao Tamaki's adaptation is fluid, juicy, and funny, his mecha are solid, and his character design and depiction inject a familiar cast with new life. Simply wonderful.
