battles, a princess and a nunnery

I've been reading the first volume of Yagyu Ninja Scrolls: Revenge of the Hori Clan manga from Del Rey. An interesting tale with very interesting art. As my Anime Companion Supplement entries are often driven by whim I am adding three historical entries related to that manga.


Ôsaka no Jin (Battle of Ôsaka Castle)

Sen Hime (Princess Sen)

Tôkeiji

If you have not considered this manga I recommend it as a fun read. Not for kids tho' it gets bloody at times, after all a story with samurai and ninja is not light stuff.

As for more photos I plan to get some up tonight or tomorrow. Today I have errands to get done.
