The Blue Wolves of Mibu, Vol. 3

青のミブロ [Ao no Miburo] #3

by Tsuyoshi Yasuda

The year is 1863. It is a turbulent time in Japan, as rising anxieties about the modernizing world coincide with the decline of the shogunate, and the possibility of civil war looms. As disgruntled samurai flood into the city of Kyoto, a group of warriors are recruited to maintain peace and protect the shogunate's interests: the Mibu Roshigumi, later known as the Shinsengumi!

Danger seems to lurk around every corner in Kyoto, and a cabal of well-hidden imperial loyalists are slaying the shogun's supporters from the Aizu Clan. When the daimyo of Aizu contracts the Mibu Roshigumi to investigate and bring the killers to justice, it seems like the perfect opportunity for the cash-strapped group to find a powerful patron who will bring them under his wing. But how will they find an enemy hidden in plain sight, and what will the trio of boys from Kyoto—Nio, Hajime and Taro—be able to do against grown hit men?

This series continues to be so good. The art is excellent and the action easy to follow. The dialogue, action and sequence of events are easy to follow and the storytelling very engaging as are the characters. The humor really works (at least for me) but does not take away from some of the more serious scenarios. It’s a bit cheesy but it works.
