Description
A gritty historical action story, starring samurai cats, Nekogahara will appeal to fans of everything from Japanese-flavored fantasy like Naruto to more adult historical action like Lone Wolf and Cub. RONIN IN THE RAW Proud stray-samurai, Norachiyo, continues his journey to find his peace while escaping his haunting past. Along the way, he's crossed paths with a few ne'er-do-well cats and now his shadow is trailed by a clowder of fiendish felines out for blood. The secret police, a molly ninja, and a self-righteous pretty boy are just a few of those looking to take on Norachiyo. But can they prevail against a cat who once slew a "god"?
Author Biography
After starting out as an assistant on the samurai manga Rurouni Kenshin, Hiroyuki Takei in 1998 created Shaman King, which would go on to become a smash hit Shonen Jump adventure, published in the US by Viz Media, with an anime adaptation broadcast on Fox. Its success led to three spinoff and sequel manga. His cited influences include Osamu Tezuka, Hiroaki Samura's Blade of the Immortal, and Mike Mignola's Hellboy.
