Summary: A sad history
Review: A very sad history, where Kamui must fight againts his fate: that every one he loves die. What seems to be a nice dream (peaceful life and the love of a woman, something he allways wanted) turned to a nigthmare when the ninjas came to the village. At first is very relaxig, considering the previous part of the saga, but soon the tension starts to build up until the final battle. This final battle vs a ninja as skilled as him is very well done, and can make you hold your breath until it finish.

Summary: Renegade ninjas
Review: Sanpei Shirato's, "Legend of Kamui" series is a highly entertaining and exciting look into the world of ninjas and feudal Japan. This first volume clocks in at 260+ pages, and although the story and visuals flow at a rapid pace readers will find great delight in the superb artwork and stunning attention to detail that is packed into every panel.While vol. 1 is basically the tale of ex-ninjas on the run (as they are being hunted down by their former clans), Sanpei Shirato finds time to inject occassional bits of humor and melodrama which ultimately gives this action packed series warmth and emotion. Also of interest are footnotes explaining the Japanese names of various ninjitsu fighting techniques being used in the battle scenes.

Summary: Battles and emotions
Review: The Legend of Kamui is one of the rare Mangas that deal with fighting and battles without forgetting to tell a good story. Sanpei Shirato knows how to draw and to entertain. Certainly a Manga to start with.
