Pushed to the brink by a rival for Yuki’s heart, Kagetora, a ninja in love, might finally confess all in the penultimate volume of this series. With only one more volume to go, a great deal changes between Kagetora and Yuki. Torn by his duty as her “oyakume” and the love he harbours for he in his hear, Kagetora has always held back his true feelings – until now. A man-to-man talk with Kujou spurs a big change in Kagetora’s attitude. A trip back home with Yuki is exactly what he needs to clear his head. But an unexpected run in with his father upsets the balance. A touching visit to his mother’s grave will bring about a rewarding moment for fans of the series, and a brother’s love may be required in Kagetora’s time of need. A side trip for the new couple offers a romantic reprieve before the drama yet to come. They must lie to stay together. But the arrival of a new “oyakume” for Yuki could tear them apart. Kaya is a kunoichi, a female ninja as dedicated to her duty as Kagetora. Naturally a face-off occurs, but no one could have expected it to occur during gym class! Almost nothing goes as expected and the end result will leave Kagetora reeling. As a bonus story, readers find out how Kagetora came to team up with his monkey partner. Kosuke, in an endearing prequel to the manga series. Other bonuses include a preview of the final volume in its original Japanese and translation notes.
IN SUMMARY: This penultimate volume of “Kagetora” sees a heartfelt confession occur at last, but also a heartrending obstacle.
