Although Taiyo Matsumoto desired a career as a professional soccerplayer at first, he eventually chose an artistic profession. He gained his first success through the Comic Open contest, held by the magazine Comic Morning, which allowed him to make his professional debut. He started out with 'Straight', a comic about basketball players. Sports remain his main influence in his next comic, 'Zéro', a story about a boxer.

In 1993 Matsumoto started the 'Tekkonkinkurito' trilogy in Big Spirits magazine, which was even adapted to a theatre play. He continued his comics exploits with several short stories for the Comic Aré magazine, which are collected in the book 'Nihon no Kyodai'. Again for Big Spirits, Taiyo Matsumoto started the series 'Ping Pong' in 1996. 'Number Five' followed in 2001, published by Shogakukan.

Another beautiful volume as Sochiro continues to lead a pacifist’s life despite killers closing in on him. The brutal Kikuchi is back and his return made for a very tense reading experience, the kind you finish in one sitting.

Worth noting is that Kana dropped the ball on this volume, it’s half the width as the others for the same page count, flimsy and transparent pages does not make for a fun experience. And the book partially came apart by the time I was done. I’m super disappointed they would shit the bed like that out of nowhere.

書名的意思是,帶著竹劍(竹光)的武士(侍)。

瀨能宗一郎是個來自信濃的浪人,住到江戶的長屋後,一開始由於長相奇特(狐狸臉)和奇特的舉止(躺在屋頂上看雲、山、發呆)受眾人注目,但久而久之,大家,尤其是小孩子們,都喜歡這個舉止怪異但性情溫和的浪人。

受邀到私塾裡教授孩子們識字的宗一郎,每天的優閒生活卻無法持久,因為信濃的大名身體衰老,府邸裡出現擁立十歲姪子或者是還不知道自己身世的私生子瀨能宗一郎兩派,反對私生子繼承的這方人馬即刻出手,先到宗一郎和父母親一起窩居的深山裡想要來個斬草除根,沒想到師承父親劍術的宗一郎在逃跑後又折返,一舉將入侵者除了詐死者外全數殲滅,之後遵照父親遺言前往江戶,卻始終擺脫不了接二連三的追殺。

宗一郎的母親是信濃大名侍妾,在懷有身孕的情況下,賜給了在府邸裡擔任劍道教練的父親,劍術高明的父親並不諳官場奸險,在得罪當權者後攜妻遠避深山。宗一郎並不清楚自己的身世,故對連番追殺感到十分困惑,即使父母慘死眼前,仍無法理解心中蠢動的殺意,為了不成為噬血的鬼怪,甚至將父親給的寶劍典當。直到殺手濫殺無辜,宗一郎終於下定決心要正面迎擊,好讓他喜愛的升斗小民們,可以不再因為他而惴惴難安。

故事就到此為止

當初預約的時候以為全套只有六集,正高興全都到手,一口氣可以看到結局,沒想到最後兩本還在新書準備階段,根本不能上線預約。

故事就先到這這裡為止。何時上網預約成功,何時書能夠到手,何時就知道最後結尾。

另外的心得,就留到全部看完再說吧!

Not the greatest manga... The story was quite dull and really didn’t like the crappy art 👌😤❤️

one of my favorite closing lines: the black dog to the underworld, snow, to the lands of shinano, and the assassin, to the sahā world...still love the neighborhood cats who add texture to every far-up village scene by sitting on top of delicately-hatched roofs. not to mention their wry and funny commentary.
