Customer Reviews

One of the best Samurai Manga out there!

Vagabond is an excellent read! Great detailed artwork with an excellent storyline to draw you in each volumes to keep you going. A page turner! If you like samurai stories, this is one of the best along with Blade of the Immortal. I think the drawings are done beautifully in Vagabond. Backgrounds and people. Amazing. It's like admiring art in these books. You will not be disappointed in any of the volumes in Vagabond! I am a huge manga buyer and only read them once then I sell them because I do not re-read books. But Vagabond is the one set I will keep indefinitely! That tells you alot!
