Now a major live-action series on HBO Max, Song of the Samurai, and from the creator of the smash-hit, multi-million-selling manga and anime Record of Ragnorak, Shinya Umemura, comes the true, action-packed epic tale of the legendary Shinsengumi – the proud young Samurai mercenaries who fought to restore honour and civilization at the end of the 19th Century, a turbulent time of political upheaval in Japan’s history.
The English-language debut 3-in-1 Edition of this spectacular, must-read manga series features the first three volumes collected for the very first time.
Chiruran: Shinsengumi Requiem tells the story of Hijikata Toshizou, the young, rebellious swordsman who would find fame as the Vice Commander of the Shinsengumi, the ruthless “Mibu Wolves” – a heroic police force who lived and died to restore order to the chaotic streets of Kyoto.
Critically acclaimed for both its both brilliantly written characters and the breathless art style of its action sequences, this is an essential historical battle manga that deserves to be explored by all manga fans!
