Blade of the Immortal Omnibus Volume 2 Paperback – April 25, 2017

If it's possible to improve upon perfection, the second entry in Dark Horse's re-issue of "Blade of the Immortal" does exactly that. The artwork is on point and since it's black and white, serves as one more visual reminder of the stark contrasts between some of the characters and themes. While the art is a signature element, the real strength to this manga is the writing. Somehow, it gets even better as the story goes on. Not only do Rin and Manji continue to grow and change, but we learn more about Anotsu, as well as other members of the Itto-ryu and the fledgling Mugai-ryu.Another reviewer called the work 'sublime', and there is no refuting that description.This collection contains the volumes "On Silent Wings 1 & 2" and "Dark Shadows."

The media could not be loaded. Well packaged, beautiful artwork.

Great story, the art is gorgeous and the book itself is well bound. I have purchased other Dark Horse omnibus editions and these are by far the most well curated.

If you like stories of Fedual Japan, plus alot of blood, gore, and a storyline that draws you in this is the manga for you. Blade of the Immortal has so many interesting characters that it feels they are actually historical characters and the character Manji will remind you of a Wolverie in Fedual Japan. A must read

Story is amazing as well as the artwork.

Like the first omnibus, the cover is beautiful and the binding is high quality. The spines are going to look awesome together once the whole set is out.The plot continues to be really interesting. I love the interactions between our two main characters. They play off each other very well and it adds a lot to the already fantastic story.

One word: Sublime

Ordered Omnibus 1+2Both books came with bends on the corners and edges, and book 2 had a slight tear.Sucks because this is one of my favorite stories but both books were damaged, I'd suggest buying elsewhere, still readable however.
