Translation: Jarosław Grzedowicz
New edition of the popular series “Usagi Yojimbo”. The sixth book collects stories published in the volumes “Bridge of Tears”, “Return of the Black Soul” and “Hunting the Fox”. By the end of the sixteenth century, Japan was shaken by numerous civil wars. In one of the battles, Miyamoto Usagi lost his sovereign, Mr. Mifune. From that day on, a lonely Ronin travels the country, looking for peace of mind, fighting for justice and perfecting his samurai skills. This time, during one of the journeys, Usagi will meet Mayumi – a girl who will convince him to help her get out of a provincial town. As affection grows between the two, their journey becomes more and more dangerous. Long-Eared Ronin will meet with the bounty hunter Gene again, as a result of which Usagi will become involved in a suicide mission of a certain clan, and Gen will follow the killer who turns out to be someone else, than it seemed. Meanwhile, numerous bounty hunters set off to pursue Inazuma overrun by the sinister demon Jei, known as the Black Soul. The confusion related to this will not bypass Usagi as well … The series “Usagi Yojimbo: Saga” is a masterly adaptation of a comic book of samurai legends, published for over 30 years and translated into several dozen languages. The author of the script and drawings is Stan Sakai, and the new edition has been enriched with a colorful gallery of covers.
