The stories in this book are wonderful. The first, based on historical facts, describes an "incident" that took place March 8, 1868, in the port of Sakai, near Osaka, between samurai and French sailors. The case will end in a terrible way. Other stories in the collection evoke a daily reality, but the facts remain outstanding. Hiroshi Hirata writes and draws with humanity and fairness of the biggest - it's obviously a huge mangaka. The edition proposed by Delcourt, however, lacks a bit of class, this is the first time in my (long) drive career I buy a book (paperback) whose pages are going to them- same after the second reading. Too bad! For my future purchases with this editor, I also ask you to provide me a tube of glue. Manga: 5 stars; quality of editing: 2 stars; average: 2.5 stars. I rounded to 3, but that's because it's Hiroshi Hirata.
