This was so weird sometimes but somehow I couldn't put it down.

This starts off with a ninja named Gabimaru The Hallow and he's being sentenced to die. But every time they try to kill this guy he somehow survives. Trying to get his neck chopped off? Nope. Burning him to death? No effect. This whole time Sagiri, a woman Samurai, is trying to find out if he really wants to die. Once we get past the first chapter of learning who Gabimaru is we get into the main plot, finding a elixir to keep people alive forever. So Gabimaru and Sagiri are forced to work together.

This is a pretty brutal series. Gabimaru fighting style is quick, brutal, and we're talking about necks being torn out, legs chopped off, and more. It's not for the weak stomached, that's for sure. Sagiri also deals with a lot of pent up fear, and tus it is shown as demon like creatures clawing at her naked body, so if nudity is a thing you don't like this isn't for you despite it not being used "sexual". But the main heart of the story, these two broken characters working together, is interesting. Not to mention the stakes are high and some "major" characters I thought would be around awhile die off real quick.

For a new series it kept me in even if I feel it rushes so quick sometimes. I'll be checking out more though. A 4 out of 5.
