This review is from: Samurai Girl: Real Bout High School, Book 5 (Paperback)

Real Bout High School is one of my favorite series. Ryoko Mitsurugi, the samurai idol of Daimon High, is tall, beautiful, and kicks major a**. She reveres the samurai of the past and seeks to emulate them in the modern world. When the K-fights are introduced, she goes at it with her 'enemy' Shizuma Kusanagi and her rival Azumi Kiribiyashi. In her free time she practices with her bokken and dreams of dating the captain of the Kendo club, whom Azumi is also chasing.
This is an incredibly fun, action packed series and I can't wait till the next book comes out!

I love the series, and I couldnt find book 5 anywhere but here.
It's a great series, with well drawn characters, and nice fight scenes.
Along with the attractive women that most men seem to enjoy.
There's drama, and friendship, and rivalry, and it all adds up to one great comic book.

This review is from: Samurai Girl: Real Bout High School, Book 5 (Paperback)

Sometimes, while I'm reading this series, I am interested and excited about the events, but there are a lot of times when I'm just bored. In this volume, Ryoko Mitsurugi and Shinsengumi have to go participate in battles at Dragon Land. While I still think the artwork looks pretty awesome, the panels still feel overcrowded and I'm having problems caring about what happens to the characters. In this book or any of the previous ones, there's never really all that much time devoted to allowing the readers to really get to know and care about the characters. Instead, there are a lot of fights, which, while often fun, aren't enough, at least for me. Judging from some of the reviews I've seen for the other volumes, however, I seem to be in the minority with my opinions about this series.
