EDENS ZERO Chapter 2 Review
Edens Zero Chapter two kicks off where the last chapter left off. Shiki, Rebeca, and Happy are off to space to their new destination. Issues arise when someone kidnaps Happy, with Shiki and Rebecca doing their best to save him. Even though Edens Zero continues to have some Fairytail feel, this chapter gave me vibes of Dragon Ball. For starters, the aesthetic of that city screamed early Dragon Ball. But the Dragon Ball vibes did not stop there. The villains (especially the big bad) was straight out of Dragon Ball as well (The Red Ribbon era to be exact). Which is quite funny after the whole “is that a love…
