I didnât have any high expectations. But after a just the first chapter alone, I already came out close to addicted. It turned out to not be the typical ninja manga that just focuses on whose Jutsu is cooler or stronger that I was expecting.
THE AMAZING DUO LEADâ¨-Gabimaru: âBestâ Ninja/Prisoner. â¨-Sagiri: Sword Master/Executioner.
These two MCs teamed up together along with the other executioners/prisoners to pursue the elixir of immortality on a mysterious island in order to be freed and return back to home.

Along the way, both of them must face or prevail their personal conflicts and weaknesses. More importantly, they must survive death-threatening opponents or challenges ahead of them.â¨For Gabimaru, he was supposed to be a heartless human killing machine; however, he must find a
way to incorporate emotions and feelings to become his strength.â¨For Sagiri, she was supposed to be arguably the best swordmaster; however, she must find confidence in herself and her expertise in the samurai sword.
Other than the MCs, the side characters are extremely interesting as well. Overall, the characters in Jigo are VERY striking in their own ways and can actually easily steal spotlights away from the MCs as they sometimes do.
The story setup is extremely unique. Despite having the samurai/ninja element + Edo-ish vibe, the mangaka, Yuuji, completely created his own universe. With the existence of a mysterious island, Yuuji demonstrated crimson contrast between hope and despair, survival and death.
And lastly the art category, it is definitely a highlight of its own. Donât want to go further into this before I end up spoiling something SO JUST PLS GO READ THIS ALREADY ITS GOOD
