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!

There are so many mangas that I love and say that are my favourites. Okay, plainly said I love this manga, and well, I thought that I should cover it, or my mind wouldn’t stop nagging me about it.

Why I do love this story so much, that I’ve read it about 5 times? Well, it has my favourite themes: Shinobi (ninja) and time slips. Yes, yes, you’ve heard me tight. There are that ninjas, similar to Naruto ones (if anyone watched that anime you’ll know what I’m talking about). The time slips are two-way: present to past and present to future. Surely, mostly we were in the past and not only one era, but also different ones.

The plot of the story is very nice and the great characters make this manga even more amazing. Not only two main – Beni and Kagetora are what make the story, but also two others – Rihito and Hitaki. Now let me just briefly say their relationship to each other. Kagetora and Hitaki are ninjas from the past who time slipped to the present. Kagetora became Beni’s bodyguard because of some circumstances, while Hitaki Rihito’s. While Beni is in love with Kagetora, and that love is mutual, Rihito is her fiancé and he is also in love with her. Did I just unintentionally spoil some good stuff? I don’t think so; just stating their relationship is not enough. The way their relationships progress, that’s what, really is worth reading about.

How do I explain this; this story is amazing whichever way to read it. I loved reading about all characters. Every one of them is broken and only another one can fill them up. Each of them has a heartbreaking story to tell and if you listen closely you will understand each character if not you’ll miss the essential part of them. I suppose the hardest impact on me had Rihito. In the beginning he acts as the villain, but as soon as you look into his story, your impression of his changes cordially. It’s not pity, but maybe it is pity that you are feeling towards him. However, you’re looking forward when he will open the door of his cage and fly. That moment when he has to jump though the whole is the one that makes your heart beat fast, because you get it, soon he’s going to change and you want to witness him breaking his chains.

This manga has a lot of life situations and wen you unravel all the secrets and understand why each character was like he and she was acting, you cry. The ending leaves a question as to why only Hitaki was there, but that may be a story for a new serialization. This manga has a bit of specific humor. You may not get all the jokes, because they are mostly due to playing of words. However, where I was reading the translators explained every joke and made it simple to understand.

I hope you will get some time to read this great story. You will like it a lot. It has everything: love, joy, sorrow, betrayal, action and a lot of mystery. Enjoy it to its fullest

Was the artistry always this bad in this series? Wow! In comparison to what all I have been reading and looking at, this is next to scribbles.
Still Same old, must find the other business. yeah yeah yeah.

Damn, this was like the shallowest, slowest sequel I've ever encountered... Hope the next one has actually some plot again..
