Journal Entry 1 by SasquatchBR from São Paulo, São Paulo Brazil on Wednesday, January 7, 2004
Back in the 90's a publisher named "Sampa Editorial" started to publish this series about an assassin in medieval Japan. It is made in a totally unusual (for me at that time!) way of telling a story in a comic format. Every story is plenty of layers and it's so filled with details that each reading provides new discoveries. It depicts a world so different from mine, in so many aspects and bearings that helped me to understand that MY middle-class big-Brazilian-city world is just ONE of many worlds possible - helped me to realize that if my world - values, culture, traditions - is only a construction than I can struggle to make a better one for me. Ok, this statement can seem cliché or even tacky, but this is the way this series moved me. Deeply.

My wife bought me this copy through Amazon, as a gift. I felt utterly happy when she gave me.
