4.0

Some of the best jokes or dialogue of the original book have been taken out and altered for literally no reason at all. It also feels a bit choppy story wise because they’re trying to condense such a complex book into four manga volumes. I’m not sure I’d enjoy it as much if I hadn’t read the original novel. Otherwise, it’s really fun to see these characters illustrated.
