I polished this issue off in well under five minutes, which might sound pretty bad, to be fair, the whole issue is just one big fight scene. Picking up after the cliffhanger in #1, Jubei is forced into a rematch with Tessai (the rock-guy), Benisato (the snake lady) and Mushizo (the wasp guy); villains he had slain in the Ninja Scroll film. The art is great, though the fight is a bit of a let-down. Each of the Devils is considerably depowered from their original appearance. Where they once presented a huge threat to Jubei, now he dispatches them with relative ease. The surprise appearance from another character from the movie is rather intriguing. The series is running pretty good so far, though this issue doesn’t read very well all on its own.
