Rin has spent countless days chasing the murderer of her parents, and now she has Anotsu Kagehisa where she wants him, but the deathly ill Anotsu is too sick for the honor-bound Rin to strike down.... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Wild action as the crippled Anotsu faces a dozen sword school killers. Manji and Rin choose that moment to reunite and blood flows. Samura's complex story line is wonderful and his battles beautiful. For those familiar with the series, this is an excellent chapter.
Finally, the story's back on track!

Last Blood is Volume 14 in Mr. Samura's revenge-quest manga, Blade of the Immortal. While there are some genuinely funny and sweet moments (the laughs and awws provided by Magatsu and Rin, respectively), the overall tone of this volume is dark and tense but NOT depressing. Anotsu has been systematically cut down, but now he will regather his forces (what's left of the Itto-ryu) and strike back at the Bakufu! Likewise, Rin reunites with Manji, and however briefly their time, she makes a long-awaited confession.... Needless to say, I lapped up every single panel: this series is very very well plotted. Yet I do have a minor complaint. Some of the pages seem rushed, and the lines, very dark and heavy. However, the one or two full page pencil sketches are still astonishingly beautiful.
This series F-ing ROCKS!
