I liked it.

Why did it have to be cut short...it was such a good story...

The idea was great, the art is great as well, but after the first few chapters the story wasn't very engaging at all. I don't know what happened, but it became a huge disappointment. Did it get axed at 3 volumes? If so, I think the reason is obvious: the quality dropped drastically.

I hate to say this... but as a whole, this series was rather insulting to me, I mean, the setting is supposed to be china but I'm pretty sure that the MC is wearing a kimono, and don't get me started on that damn sword of his....
it could've became a great series, what a waste ...
Honestly... this author is wasted on Jump....
I don't want to sound like an ass, but I feel like one of the factor it was cut was because it took place in China not Japan....
maybe because suikoden idea.. that need license from k*nami (i guess) but i still hate this got cut. this author idea and artwork is really good !!! Examurai is good too anyway

(sorry for my bad english..)
Same here, never understood how this could get cut, especially comparing it to some Jump's stuff..
The mysteries of marketing...
This was a great manga in the making... but it got cut. I just can't see why. Artwork was nice, character were cool. Was really looking forward to seeing the group grow.... gah hate the japanese rating system sometimes.
I really enjoyed this; it's got all the flavors of a typical action shounen series. It feels like it could've made it big if it hadn't been cut short...
