Synopsis

In Route 20 people live in a metal city surrounded by a glass dome, that protects its inhabitants from the polluted air of the outside, and controlled by a paranoic and oppressive police state. They feel free and sure, albeit they are like imprisoned. But some "rebel" boys have different feelings. Ushiji is one of them, a boy that follows his dream... or, better, rides his dream: his motorcycle and its metaphoric meaning of freedom, with the memories of his grandfather's tales about the absence of rules and hypocrisies of the outer world.

Route 20 is a manga about one kid who's in a biker gang, and the trouble he gets into along the way. The story is told in a somewhat haphazard way, with things changing left and right, but I feel like that works in it's favor, making the pacing of the manga feel similar to the life of chaos that the main character has chosen. It helps set the tone of the manga well. Each scene is also very nicely done, with interesting, cinematic-like storytelling.

The art is pretty nice, with lots of interesting character designs that are expressive and iconic. There are also some cool ...
