I expected a story of a strong man set in the '90s, where he'd fight against or along the yakuza. Instead, we are presented a tale of a father that realizes his infinite love for his family, that tries to recover 16 years of absence in one day. This is not a sequence of pages representing brutal violence. It's a redemption of a man, the realization of a father. He lost everything, he was abused by his old man, he faced prison. So he grew up as a scar-faced bear sized giant. But after all, we discover his human side, his will to protect the weak and thewill to sacrify himself to achieve that.
It's a humane and mundane story, that makes you smile, cheer, cry in only 3 volumes.
