    "The art is gorgeous, a combination of beautiful cartooning and realistic backgrounds. Yukimura is also a master of pacing, both in frenetic battle scenes and charged emotional moments." - Faith Erin Hicks ("Friends With Boys")

    "The creator shows a magnificent ability to draw each of the varied characters with appeal. In a blood-soaked world of killing... [Yukimura] takes this story to even greater heights, developing it into a magnificant historical drama... It will be impossible not to watch the rest of this story unfold." - The Japan Media Arts Awards jury
