Ez read but not so interestig; the nuns and monks and their disguises are lame, in the other hand i think that old japan had an order, is like a outskirts rural town, but then you have design in it. I think that the design is what made it stand up and evolve.

Decent ninja manga based In the Feudal Japan era! The action was pretty awesome but the plot/story was pretty dull 👌😁❤️
