Samurai Deeper Kyo

Set in an alternate feudal Japan, Samurai Deeper Kyo follows the wandering swordsman Kyoshiro Mibu, who shares his body with the legendary, bloodthirsty "Demon Eyes" Kyo. This 2005–2006 series, published by Mangismo A/S, adapts Akimine Kamijyo's original manga, with Kamijyo providing the art across all 15 issues. It matters as a concise, action-driven translation of a popular shonen epic, exploring themes of dual identity and the clash between a pacifist and his inner demon.
