Pandora Seven Vol. 02
Her life turned upside down by Pandora’s Box, Lia Frontier has traveled to the Mechanical Forest in the hope of finding a ray of light in the darkness—but all that awaits her there is the overwhelming hatred of the people still suffering from the humans’ dirty tricks five years prior. To make matters worse, the man responsible has come back to the forest, this time in pursuit of Lia, and threatens to finish what he started unless Gjorr hands her over. Confronted by such hostility from all sides, and in a seemingly unwinnable situation, Lia finds the courage to do something nobody expects…
