Ninja Vs. Gokudo Vol. 04

Ninja Vs. Gokudo Vol. 04

Since before the dawn of memory, one thing has defined human history: the war between ninjas and yakuzas. This coarse and manly manga follows two members of these warring tribes who fill the gutters of modern Tokyo with blood to determine which elemental force will reign supreme!

An outrageous new action series, like Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure meets Fist of the North Star!

Shinoha is a frickin’ NINJA. He can’t even smile because of a dark trauma in his past that you’ll find out about later. But for now, what you need to know is, he kicks ass and can kill so many guys. Kiwami, on the other hand, looks like a regular business guy, but actually he’s a flipping YAKUZA. Everyone knows ninjas and yakuzas have been at war for three hundred years, so when Kiwami and Shinoha meet, it’s like, fwoosh, slice, kabloop, stab stab stab… My point is, this manga has REAL ULTIMATE POWER and, if you read it? Maybe you can too.

Biographical Notes:

Title Notes:

This tongue-so-far-in-cheek-it-stabs-through-to-the-other-side manga pits ninjas against yakuzas in a centuries-long war for supremacy.

This is Kodansha’s answer to the success of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure, with a chance of future adaptations to other media.

This is Kodansha’s answer to the success ofBloody it may be, but it’s all in good fun, and it never gets too explicit or dark.
