Blade of the Immortal: Volume 13: Mirror of the Soul

by Hiroaki Samura, 246 pages

As bedraggled Rin crosses the mountain into Kaga, Anotsu heads out to return to Edo for a gathering with his men and the government's representative. Tables are turned as plans unfold and paths cross.

Rin and Anotsu, travel buddies?? Ha! Anotsu's got it rough this volume, enough so that even the reader wants to cut him some slack. Rin still can't defeat him on her best day, but somehow the thought of taking advantage of his misfortune doesn't set right with her and her samurai pride--for which fact the equally conflicted reader is thankful.
