サムライ8 八丸伝 [Samurai 8: The Tale of Hachimaru]

A short-lived but visually striking sci-fi samurai series from Shueisha, Samurai 8: The Tale of Hachimaru ran for just five issues in 2019–2020. Illustrated by Akira Ōkubo, the story reimagines the classic ronin archetype in a futuristic setting, blending cybernetic powers with the codes of the samurai. Though its run was brief, the series stands as a distinctive, high-concept experiment from one of manga's most celebrated creative teams.
