Description

Blurb:
Avenging his father’s murder is a matter of honor for the young samurai Jintetsu. But it turns out that the killer is a corrupt government official–and now the powers that be are determined to hunt Jintetsu down like an animal. There’s only one problem: Jintetsu is already dead.

Torn to pieces by a pack of dogs, Jintetsu’s ravaged body has been found by Genkichi, outcast and master inventor. Genkichi gives the dead boy a new, indestructible steel body and a talking sword–just what he’ll need to face down the gang that’s terrorizing his hometown and the mobster who ordered his father’s hit. But what about Otsuki, the beautiful girl he left behind? Steel armor is defense against any sword, but it can’t save Jintetsu from the pain in his heart.

Testo della bandella:

Hitokiri Jintetsu, nonostante la giovane età, è un vero maestro nell’arte della spada, tanto da essere considerato uno dei più pericolosi assassini in circolazione. Ma anche lui, come tutti, non è immortale, e la sua fine non sarà opera di un avversario più abile di lui, ma di un gruppo di cani randagi. Sul punto di morte viene tuttavia raccolto e gli viene donato un corpo di legno e acciaio. Riesce a muoversi, ma perde l’uso della parola e comunque si trova ad avere a che fare con il suo nuovo corpo artificiale. Da questo momento iniziata una vita come vagabondo, vagando per il Giappone in cerca di una ragione di vita.
