Today's
post is on Samurai
Deeper Kyo volumes 37/38
by Akimine Kamijyo. It is published by Del Rey. As it is the last two
volumes in a very long series you need to have read the first 36 to
understand the story. The cover has Kyo in the center in black,
looking cool, with others of the cast around him. The intended reader
is someone who likes samurai manga, lots of swords, and surprising
romance. There is mild language, implied sexuality, and lots of
violence. The story is told in third person god perspective with
character's thoughts added in for plot and character development.
There Be Spoilers Ahead.
From
the back of the book-
All paths lead home. The mad former Crimson King threatens to destroy
all creation- and only Kyoshiro stands between Demon Eyes Kyo and his
ultimate foe. Beliefs are on the line as the two friends and rivals
cross blades for the final time. All secrets are revealed, all scores
are settled, and all life hangs in the balance. At long last, the
epic conclusion of Samurai
Deep Kyo
is here!
Review-
I love this series. The ending was so great. Kyo and Yuya work it
out. Kyoshiro gets to be with Sakuya and all roads led home. This
series has been with me for so long. I have read it since it first
came out here in the states over ten years ago. I have loved Kyo, I
have hated him, but most of all I have traveled with him. As I was
reading this series from beginning to end I was also thinking about
myself. I would remember things from when I was first reading it. I
remembered some friends who have passed away. I wish that we could
have finished reading this series together. One of my dearest friends
was the one who got me to read. I did not like the first volume but
she convinced to me try the next. By the sixth volume I was as in
love with Kyo as Yuya is. I recommend this series and I dedicate this
last review of it to my friend Adrienne.
I
give this manga series a Five out of Five. I get nothing for my
review and I bought this book with my own money.
