Product Description
The Lord of Babylon Palace has arrived and he's got his eyes on the beautiful Sayaka! Tough-as-nails high-schooler Kyoya Izayoi, master of the rare martial art of Nenpo, is back wielding the mythical sword Ashura in this classic tale of good versus evil. A floating palace mysteriously appears over Shinjuku Cho Park, sending the Intelligence Agency scrambling for information. No need to infiltrate the palace this time - the Lord of the Palace is throwing a housewarming party! He's invited a who's who of Japan, along with Kyoya and Sayaka and the three mythic Knights of Marduk. Will Kyoya and Dr. Mephisto find out who the Lord of Babylon Palace really is? Why is the Lord of Babylon after Sayaka? Can Kyoya get to her before it is too late? Kyoya may have finally met his match!

A worthwhile addition to the DEMON CITY series., Jun 16 2005
By Kemushi - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Demon Palace Babylon Volume 1 (Paperback)
DEMON PALACE BABYLON is a stand-alone, 2-volume manga series that is part of Hideyuki Kikuchi's DEMON CITY SHINJUKU universe that was created with the publication of the novel of the same name (which has - sadly - not yet been translated into English) in 1982 and continued in a number of manga comics.
Shinichi Hosoma's artwork for DEMON PALACE BABYLON is a significant improvement over his previous, earlier work on DEMON CITY HUNTER. He really has come a long way in the 10 years between those two series!
The story of DEMON PALACE BABYLON is rooted in Sumerian mythology and sees a arrival of an enormous, mysterious floating palace of the Demon City. Kyoya, Sayaka and Dr. Mephisto must deal with its lord and the sinister plans he has for Sayaka.
DEMON PALACE BABYLON is a brisk, entertaining, pulpy read that I can recommend to anyone who's a fan of the DEMON CITY SHINJUKU anime or Hideyuki Kikuchi in general.
Listmania!
