CompleteMartialArts.com - Samurai Deeper Kyo, Book 3

Okuni Izumono discovers a rebel group's secret hideout and must depend on Kyooshiroo for protection. However, after he runs afoul of the local police, he and his companions are forced to leave town and set up camp in the woods. While Kyooshiroo and Okuni sleep, Yuya sneaks off to find the rebels' hideout and steal their secret loot. But as she leaves, a shadowy group of rebels watch her from the cliff above with ill intent.

In this volume the reader finally gets an idea of where the plot is going, and frankly, it's a very exciting turn of events. Violence! History! Supernatural demons! Sword techniques with long names! Fanservice for the guys! This manga has everything.

And don't you dare compare it to Rurouni Kenshin. Let's be honest now, if you've read this far into the series, you know they are nothing alike. So I say, read this manga. If you're just venturing outside of the darling Adult Swim line-up ("d00d! Inu-yasha is leik the BEST anime ever. EVER, I SAY!") Then this is a nice introduction to manga, and if you're just looking for the plain old plot and violence line, well, this is for you also.
