Advertising
Fantasy Novel

Notes From manga by Gosho Aoyama
Some non-English websites (use online translation).

Classification -

Synopsis Comedy fantasy about Yaiba, a young master swordsman, who fights various demonic enemies, using a magical sword. He stays with his father's old adversary, Raizo, and goes to the same school as Raizo's cute daughter, Sayaka.

Review Slapstick comedy. Very funny, with some nice touches, as in the bit where the Croco-demon first appears as a demure bijin who betrays herself first by showing a forked tongue and then retrieving a dropped sake cup from the fire.
