Yuji Kaku

Even an invincible ninja may not be able to survive Hell’s Paradise! Gabimaru the Hollow is one of the most vicious assassins ever to come out of the ninja village of Iwagakure. He’s ruthlessly efficient, but a betrayal results in him being handed a death sentence. He has only one hope—in order to earn his freedom, he must travel to a long-hidden island and recover an elixir that will make the shogun immortal. Failure is not an option. On this island, heaven and hell are just a hair’s breadth away.

Hell's Paradise: Jigokuraku

Kinda expected something more. The meaning the author trying to convey is pretty on the face so it's kinda bland. The opening volume is kinda boring, but the overall premise is a good curiousity-inducer. I might tune in directly to where the anime ended lol. Banger fighting scenes though

Briar's Reviews

This manga was not for me, but it is quite the adventure! It's packed full of action and thrills throughout the entire book.

If you're looking for a mature manga with a constantly, fast moving pace then this book is up your alleyway! Gabimaru, a famous and brutal assassin, tries to earn his freedom and escape his circumstances. His quest lets him murder anyone, and do what he pleases to earn back his freedom as long as he meets the requirements set out for him.

There's lots of violence and gore throughout this book. It didn't bother me at all, but for some reason this book just didn't click with me. I can't quite put a reason on it. Either way, I still think it's mighty cool! It's definitely an adult manga, which I've been craving more of lately. 

I did think the art style was pretty cool. That drew my attention in and helped me finish this book.

Three out of five stars.

Thank you to NetGalley and VIZ Media for providing me a free copy of this book in exchange of an honest review.
