Appare Jipangu, Volume 3

天晴じぱんぐ [Appare Jipangu!] #3

by Yuu Watase

This story is about "Yusura" who was left under a cherry tree 15 years ago. She grew up as a daughter of a pharmacist and works as a "Hikeshiya", who can erase sadness from people by using the Kongoumaru, which turns blue as it absorbs people's sorrows, then sends it back to the person guilty of causing the sorrow

From Esthetique:
As Yusura grew older, she acquired a reputation as the "Hikeshiya". Using her Kongoumaru, Yusura would eliminate sorrow from those who were suffering. Literally. One day, a nearsighted young man was being chased by several villainous looking fellows, so Yusura helped him. She took him back to her home,where she learned his name was Samon. Samon was the Daimyou of Sagami. Samon and Yusura have many interesting experiences in Edo Japan. The two run across many unique characters and with their aid have even more unique and exciting adventures.

No le iba a dar las 3 estrellas pq overall no me estaba convenciendo, pero el capítulo final me ha gustado bastante así que ahí está.
Obra bastante surrealista a la que tampoco hay que buscarle mucho sentido. La prota con el pelo suelto me recuerda a la Takiko de Genbu (que x cierto empezó a escribirse cuando salió este tomo) y that was nice. También la historia extra final entiendo que son las de Alice 19th, y quizá lo mencionó Watase en los primeros tomos de esta, pero como solo leí 2-3 e hice drop pq horrenda pues well.
Y ya por último las ediciones de glenat eran un circo pq wdym que la contraportada se corresponde al último tomo de Alice 19th jsjsjs, ya les pasó con el 2ndo de Genbu poniendo contraportada de Ayashi no Ceres (con contraportada me refiero al resumen) + en este caso tmb hay un titulo mal en el índice lol. En verdad me da igual, es solo que me parece curioso.
Anywaysss, solo a Watase le podrían haber publicado este mini circo, and that's on being an icon <3

Una ricerca finalmente possibile per la nostra eroina. I soliti compagni di viaggio con qualche aggiunta in più. E... finalmente il mistero del potere del fidato bastone. Una giusta conclusione.
