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

Unfortunately, since Del Rey Manga is no more, who knows if this series will ever be completed in English. This is the last published book, and the overall plotline is far from over. Still, the seven extant books were still a lot of fun while they lasted.
