シノビライフ 11

Shinobi Life #11

by Shoko Conami

Many, many years ago, a ninja named Kagetora devoted his life to protecting Princess Beni (”Beni-Hime”). Unfortunately, they were attacked and Kagetora was flung into a lake, and sank to the bottom… And is somehow warped to the future where he sees the princess Beni being kidnapped.
Little does Kagetora know that Beni is not the real princess, but rather her descendant. Beni, on the other hand, thought that Kagetora was just a cosplayer. Beni, the daughter of a rich man has already been kidnapped a hundred times already... But fear not because Kagetora is here. Will Kagetora be able to go back to the past, or will he remain by Beni’s side forever?

Finalmente Beni e Kagetora si ritrovano!!!

[deedee megadoodoo · Rating 5 out of 5]

Binge read the whole series in half a day and I loved it so, so much! I always love stories that have time travel just because they're that much more complicated so they take that much more effort and planning from the author(s).

The samurai feel made me think of Itsuwaribito, which I also enjoyed!

I loved the romance between Kagetora and Beni! At first I thought it was too much of instant romance, but later as I kept realizing more and more about their story and being connected over a large span of time--everything made sense and they are seriously a beautiful couple, fated to be together!

Loved this manga series!

What a sweet reunion... I’ve never cried so much.

I thought this story’s pacing was off in the first volume, only to realize that it was part of the plan. It was fate for these two to fall in love. Very sweet.

I really like that Beni's dad got his final goodbye with her mom. I wasn't expecting that all. It was a nice little surprise. What also surprised me was that Beni and Kagetora reuniting didn't hit me in the fuzzies like I'd expect it to. Their (tastefully eluded to) extreme make-out sesh/possible sex also did nothing for me. Am I . . . no longer shipping them? Noooo
