[Reading] House of Five Leaves
Jan. 6th, 2025 06:04 pmI borrowed the first volume of Natsume Ono's House of Five Leaves from the library. Whoa, I'm really enjoying it a lot!
The premise: A ronin who is a skilled swordsman but lacks confidence and assertiveness has difficulty finding employment. Reluctantly, he agrees to work for a charismatic gang leader.
I'm getting really drawn in; I like the characters very much so far, and the art is very pretty. The library has up to vol 04, so I'm looking forward to reading the rest ASAP. (Unfortunately, there are 8 vols in the series, so I'll probably have to ILL the rest, aughhhhhh)
...Anyway, I enjoyed it very much, and while I'd hesitate to recommend anything based on one volume, it's very good so far.
