Geralt fights kappas, what more do you want?
it's rather simple, the plot isnt anything to call home about. the story and characters are so familiar yet the setting is fresh which makes it an interesting wee read by itself. I would like to see more of it, if only to see more japanese creatures - monster hunting was always my favourite part of the games, truth be told.

Edo period Japan transposed on the witcher universe. While the Lone Wolf & Cub thematics are evident, the complexity of the Manga artistry and plot narration is quite vague and confusing. Good concept but subpar execution.
