Ichigeki is one of those manga that you can tell was written because the author wanted to write it, if that makes any sense. To be honest, I don't get it, but the passion put into this is palpable. It's a story about samurai cutting each other up. The art is pretty sketchy (sketch as in sketch-like not shady) which might put some people off but it didn't really detract from my experience. If you're looking for some good action, some good swordplay, or you just like samurais I'd say this is well worth checking out. Story 7/10 Art 5/10 Character 7/10 Enjoyment 8/10 Overall 7/10
