About the author
Tsukasa Hōjō
726 books91 followersTsukasa Hojo (北条司 Hōjō Tsukasa, born on March 5, 1959, in Kokura, Kitakyushu, Japan) is a Japanese manga artist. He studied technical design while still at Kyushu Sangyo University, where he began to draw manga. He worked on several one-shot stories before releasing his serialized works: Cat's Eye, City Hunter and Angel Heart.
Hojo claims that he really did not have any inspiration for these works other than having to meet a deadline. He says he wrote down a few things, he thought about a few things, and one day the ideas just came to him, out of thin air. In reality, the process was a lot more complicated, with editors involved, but fans got the benefit of Hojo's sense of adventure and humor.
After the success of Cat's Eye and City Hunter, Hojo went on to work on other series such as Family Compo. His current ongoing series is Angel Heart, a spinoff of City Hunter set in an alternate universe. It has been serialized in the Weekly Comic Bunch since 2001 and 30 collected volumes has been published so far.
Tsukasa Hojo is Takehiko Inoue's mentor. Inoue worked as an assistant to Hojo during the production of City Hunter. Hojo is also a long-time acquaintance of Fist of the North Star illustrator Tetsuo Hara, who was also one of the founders of Coamix. Hojo contributed to the production Fist of the North Star: The Legends of the True Savior film series by designing the character of Reina.
He was honor guest of the eleventh French Japan Expo which was held in July 2010.

Well, you've probably noticed I read this manga as a Ryo/Kaori shipper. ^_^'
And in that regard, let me tell you, the first chapters of this volume are made for a shipper's heart. The relationship between Ryo and Kaori is still as ambiguous as before, but a step in the right direction has certainly been made as Ryo finally (sort of) admits at his true feelings for his partner.
Of course, it turns out (at the same time) that Saeba is also the biggest obstacle this couple has, since he decides this is the best opportunity to get rid of Kaori in order to protect her.
Of course, the woman has other plans and the reader is presented with one of the funniest (and bittersweeet-est toward the end) scenes of battle in this manga, when Kaori decides to prove her worth once and for all and dares Silver Fox, the man who wants to kill her, herself.
And in the end, when the moment for a possible clarification comes, the two are back at status quo (with a hilarious bonus of Ryo having momentarily forgotten his promise not so see Kaori as a woman).
Then comes the next chapter in this saga and we're back at Ryo acting the idiot as he and Kaori try to protect a young princess promising Ryo an entire harem if he manages to keep his hands off her companion.

El inicio del tomo fue lo mejor con el cierre del arco del zorro plateado, Kaori y Saeba.
La segunda historia nos agrega un nuevo personaje a la obra, la cual parece que va a repetirse a lo largo de la obra.
La última historia con la que va a continuar el tomo 14 parece ser otra clásica historia de guardaespaldas.
