there first samurai. Later they find out he isn't one and
that he is just a plain kid. Though in he helps them to
get seven samurai to go to the town. Join them on the
adventure to see what happens in volume one of this
series.
Opinion:
I loved this manga. This was filled with action
and had a lot of the Japanese essence with it. For
example, this manga is read like a traditional Japanese
book which is from right to left not like our books which
read from left to right. If you are not used to this you
get used to if after a few pages. In the front they taught
you about honorifics. This is used after someone's name
like -San or -Sama. This manga also uses some Japanese
words and they explain them in the back. It also includes
a preview of the second volume though it is written in
Japanese. I don't know if it will be translated to English
when it is on shelves in a store near you. All in all this
was a good book that anyone would like. If your looking
for some hack and slash or just for information about
Japanese traditions, this manga is the right one for you!
Explain your content rating:
In the manga there is some cursing, smoking, and gory
scenes.
