Product Description
A failed assassination attempt brings into Freeman's possession Muramasa, the Devil's Sword, an ancient samurai blade that brings misfortune and death to any who possess it. Wishing to spare Freeman and tame the sword's malevolent spirit, Tiger Orchid, Freeman's wife, takes the blade to Kowloon to train with a legendary swordmaster. But she'll need to find him in Kowloon Castle, a slum so riddled with crime and destitution that it does not officially exist. But its dangers are all too real, and even a possessed sword may not be enough to stop a gun-toting criminal army bent on selling Tiger Orchid into slavery! Written by the legendary Kazuo Koike, creator of Lone Wolf and Cub, and illustrated by the incomparable Ryoichi Ikegami, Crying Freeman is adult manga at its most challenging: dark, violent, morally complex, erotically charged and regarded worldwide as one of the classics of adult graphic fiction.

 enjoyed it thoroughly May 13, 2007
Enjoyed the book thoroughly as part of the series. Good plot, great drawing (black and white). Surprisingly sometimes the drawing of Crying Freeman himself is rather homoerotic.
 Highly Recommended manga reading January 7, 2007
Excellent series, even more excellent art by Ryoichi Ikegami. This great series spawned a really faithful live action movie with Mark Dacascos(sp?) and an even better anime series based on all the books. Trifecta of based on one heck of a title. Start with this Mange series first. It's hot!!!
