I'm crying here! ;_;

It's just too sad... Both Tenma and Helena crying in the end only made me cry even more T___T

And I really like Gesicht and Atom DX

I didn't like this chapter. It made me too sad.
And in the back of my mind, I'm believing that Atom's death was just a ruse. Same with Gesicht. I don't want them dead...I didn't want any of those other robots dead. :(

To be honest, since I saw the 80s Astro Boy anime's take on this series I could see Gesicht's death coming from miles away. I hope it isn't permanent though. I really liked him and teared up as soon as I saw him drop in that sequence of panels.

Never thought the scene of a robotic woman crying could be so beautiful.

Excellent chapter, plenty of great scenes! Also ofc, very sad.


One of the most memorable pages from this manga was in this chapter:




Brilliantly drawn by Urasawa.

This was a alright chapter for me Gesicht is presumably dead but he is just a robot.. I wonder how they can actually feel emotion..

Well, sad chapter was sad. =(

I can't believe Gesicht, the main character, was killed off in volume 6. And there's two volumes left! What now?

Btw, I don't think that Gesicht and Atom are dead. Urasawa does things like this in his works, I won't say examples because spoilers, but it's true.

This has to be one of the best volumes of a manga i've ever read, almost everything was constructed well and the narrative flowed perfectly. I didn't see both the main characters being dead, Urosawa has an interesting take on AI, on most shows if an AI gets killed they just get another one built to replace and i don't see him using such cheap antics here, i also don't know who the narrative will turn to now, Epsilon seems to be the most likely person though.

I refuse to believe Gesicht is dead. He's the driving force behind this great story.

I'm in denial. First Atom, and now Gesicht. I refuse to believe this.
Helena's crying scene was too touching.

Can someone explain to me. Who killed Gesicht and why is Ali there? I read til the end don't think I found an answer. It seemed like the only reason Ali was there was to remind him of his kid.

This is definitely a riveting contender for my favorite chapter of this manga! I've only read up to volume 6, but I truly loved it. Everything flowed so well, and all the puzzle pieces scattered across the previous volumes came together beautifully in this chapter.

I'm feeling quite empty from Gesicht's death, it doesn't feel real. Same with Atom's death. Subconsciously, I'm hoping that their deaths would be reversed, and everything will be fine in the end. But, I don't think that will be the case. I'm sad rn ;(. But I'm excited to read the next chapters!

Ah c'mon, Atom's dead, and now even Gesicht. I doubt that they're not really dead or they can be revived later, it's weird to continue a manga with 2 volumes without the mc but who knows

Those last panels were beautiful, one of a few times I actually cry over a manga fr
