The Legend of Kamui: Volume Four

Long considered the greatest epic series in Japanese comics, The Legend of Kamui masterfully balances an expansive cast while giving each character a distinct and memorable presence. In this fourth installment of the groundbreaking saga, the outcast Kamui finally enters the order of the ninja—only to be tasked with assassinating his own teacher, Akame, who has aligned himself with a powerful merchant. Meanwhile, Shosuke’s hard work and innovative ideas begin to win over the farmer class, bridging divisions with outcasts in a fragile move toward collaboration—until he is arrested for helping spark the Tamate uprising. Thrilling and thought-provoking, The Legend of Kamui remains one of the most exciting adventure comics ever created, while also offering profound insight into Edo-period Japan and the social forces that continue to shape modern civilizations. Originally serialized between 1964 and 1971 in the legendary alternative manga magazine GARO, this landmark work of historical fiction is translated from the Japanese by Richard Rubinger with Noriko Rubinger.Author: Shirato, Sanpei,author
