But the story runs slowly, much more so than the pace I'm used to by now in shonen. It's only mildly interesting, the poor rural Japan filled with prematurely wrinkled, ugly faces standing in stark contrast with Takezō's unusually lovingly drawn character. The typical feelings of alienation, mistrust and difference between the protagonist and his community are emphasized here by the differences in both physical and behavioural depiction of the various characters. Musashi is distracted by thoughts of his other childhood friend, the lovely Otsu. She’s now the servant of a master of the Yagyu style of swordsmanship, who Yoshioka Denshichiro has come to train with in preparation for his next duel with Musashi. Vagabond Vol. 19". Viz Media.

I remember struggling to finish chapter 8 as I thought Oko and Akemi were main characters. I was totally not okay having a super sexy prostitute lust after Takezo, but I also wanted to see Takezo get it on. What do I really want in my life? Anyway… I finished chapter 8 and suddenly I was on chapter 45. I’m pretty sure Inoue Takehiko put some sort of spell in this manga that puts the reader in a temporary trance. I can vaguely remember my mouth hanging open through most of it and not swallowing my spit until it leaked out of my mouth. As unattractive as that sounds, it’s a natural response! Vagabond Vol. 10".

Vagabond is simply the work of an angel. The artwork is extremely detailed and there were many close ups of Takezo that looked almost real. The character development (or under development in Matahachi’s case) was pleasing to witness as Takezo has many chances to learn something new and he takes each and every one.

Damn, I sound like I’m really easy to please. That isn’t case (I think), but I’m usually open minded. Enough about that, though.
