I think reading it and       seeing that it is possible to be different without       being crazy.        And yes I did read all the story online. So       after this I advised the TG friend to read it on her       smart-phone.        Personally I did not care for the hard cover       format A smaller paperback with maybe 5 volumes like       Shigero Mizuki's "Showa;A History of Japan" might be       good if interest can be developed. These are the       same folks who did not print the final volumes of       the "Yagyu Ninja Scrolls:Revenge of the Hori Women"!       Dark Horse pulled a similar stunt with "Satsuma       Gishiden" which is a tale of how viciously the       shogunate used the Satsuma samurai and how terrible       life was in those times.               bliss                     >       > On 31/05/2016 22:11, Bobbie Sellers wrote:       >> Hi readers and typers,       >>       >> There might be a few fans of "Wandering Son" out there(aka "Hourou       >> Musuko")       >>       >> I was buying it for a TG friend and getting anxious to order       >> the next volumes       >>       >>> Bobbie -       >>>       >>> Thank you for collecting this series.
