Good as a visual compliment to the Light novelBy JavierGood as a visual compliment to the Light novel. Should not be the primary entry point for new readers into the series.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Annoying dialogue and poor characters are very much an issue in the manga adaptation of Reki Kawahara's The Isolator.By TheOASGWhen a light novel transitions into manga format, it should do a few things. The first is it should make you think of the original light novel, with the art telling the story. The second is if itrsquo;s wordier than it should be, the dialogue needs to be compelling and remotely interesting.The Isolator is not compelling or remotely interesting.Based off Reki Kawahara and Shimejirsquo;s The Isolator LN series, the manga by Naoki Koshimizu follows Minoru Utsugirsquo;s life as a high school student desperate to be alone. After an incident took place in his middle school class, hersquo;s been determined to distance himself from people. But three months ago, he was hit by an orb from space, and that has granted him mysterious powers. Now he no longer feels normal, and begins to question his daily life.While reflecting on his situation, Tonomi Minowa, a former middle school classmate and track athlete attempts to be his friend. This not only puts his desire of solitude in jeopardy, but also makes her track star teammates mad. Just when that seemed to be a big problem for Minoru, an even bigger problem awaits him that not only threatens him and Tonomi, but puts him in the face of other people also hit by this orb, good and bad.The Isolator lives up to Kawahararsquo;s prior works by introducing a main character thatrsquo;s unable to connect socially. Unlike Kawahararsquo;s more famous works, Sword Art Online and Accel World, therersquo;s no online game to use as a distraction.This time the focus is on orbs falling from space. What exactly is the reason for the orbs appearing from the sky? Minoru questions this while fretting about his life on a constant basis.The plot that takes place in Volume 1 revolves around Minoru trying to figure out where his psyche is. To explain, he didnrsquo;t grow up well and the incident in middle school affected him to the point that he wants to be alone forever. Not surprisingly, events involving him change his circumstances mdash; first with the orb which has granted him a weird power, and then with Tonomi who wants to be his friend. Then he meets someone using his orb power for evil, and then the lead female protagonist Yumiko, who immediately threatens Minorursquo;s grand plan of being in solitude.The major problem with The Isolator is the dialogue. I immediately felt like I should have just read the LN once I got halfway through chapter 1. What couldrsquo;ve helped was showing us the situation rather than telling us with words. Instead we get Minorursquo;s inner monologue, and for the most part, itrsquo;s annoyingly cryptic and vague. Therersquo;s teasing the important story, and then therersquo;s explaining whatrsquo;s going on an interesting manner, which this fails to do. This could be super prevalent in the LN, but Koshimizu doesnrsquo;t present any of the words in an intriguing manner. Combine that with characters with the typical personalities (the loner protagonist, the strong willed girl, the evil baddie that shows how evil he is, etc) done in mediocre fashion, you have a mediocre first volume.Probably the only good thing in The Isolator is where it goes from here. They have to explain whatrsquo;s going on with these powers, what happens with Tonomi, and who else has these powers. Otherwise, mostly everything feels forgettable and too wordy. Death March to the Parallel World Rhapsody is super wordy, but far more tolerable with its dialogue. That might be because itrsquo;s intentions are mostly clear; The Isolatorrsquo;s is super vague, and that is hurting its readability.- Justin Mysterious objects from space have landed, embedding themselves within human beings around the world and granting them impossible powers according to their deepest wishes. Seventeen-year-old Utsugi Minoru's only wish is to be able to live apart from the world and events around him. But will he remain the same after experiencing his new powers--and new dangers? About the AuthorReki Kawahara is an award winning author best known for his light novel series, Sword Art Online and Accel World.

Tracing how both positive and negative empathy circulates around characters in one of the most influential VR fictions of the 2010s, the light novel series-turned- anime series Sword Art Online (2009-), as well as the real-life figure of Palmer Luckey, creator of the Oculus Rift headset that launched the most recent VR revival, I show how empathetic identification ultimately tends to target the VR ‘game master’, the head architect of the VR world.
