Vagabond Definitive Edition, Vol. 1: Volume 1

This is my first manga, and it was a slow one to start to a really strong story. From the first chapter, it hooks you in hard and then settles into a much slower, dialogue stretch, but the character writing carries it. I liked it enough to buy the second and third volumes straight after. The art style is genuinely excellent, and a tip I would say is to buy from an alternative marketplace like Travelling Man rather than Amazon — the packaging is far greater and I got lucky here avoiding a damaged cover.

This is an amazing start to a strong story. It makes me want to buy the next volume. If you like a story with action and philosophy then vagabond is a great manga. The art is also beautiful. Invincible under the sun is just peak fiction.

Amazing manga I’m so invested in this manga, art style is amazing

Very happy with my purchase!!! The only negative aspect are the shipping charges.

What can I say. I classic Japanese story in graphic form the art work is great from a well known school/studio artist(s). A graphic novel to be revisited - if you haven't it to someone and not had it returned

My first manga and i really enjoyed. Came in great condition, definitely recommend.

Good

Gift for grandson he enjoyed it

Arrivato in anticipo sulla data stimata. Condizioni perfette. L’edizione è ottima: formato più grande di un classico volume “deluxe”, sovraccopertina semirigida non rimovibile, pagine a colori originali conservate… anche il prezzo è tutto sommato buono.

Vagabond by Takehiko Inoue is a masterpiece in every sense of the word, not just in Manga, but in storytelling and production values in general. I rate it only behind Kentaro Miura's epic Dark Fantasy series Berserk and Fist of the North Star by Buronson and Hara in the history of Manga. Vagabond, set in the Sengoku era in Japan, is essentially an adaption of an adaption. Inoue's story is loosely based off the classic epic Mushashi by Eiji Yoshikawa, which is fictional account of the warrior philosopher Musashi Miyamoto. This 3in1 omnibus, and the series as a whole, deserves to be on your bookshelf. The characters are deep, while some could find Musashi's goal to be’ Invincible under the Sun’ as singular and base, I found it utterly fascinating and kept turning page after page even when my eyes were crying out for sleep! The story craft in Vagabond is great and the artwork is phenomenal, beautiful detail that comes alive off the page. The coloured sections are eloquent and stunning and I wish there was more to be had within. You can see, and feel, the history on the page before you as you will be truly absorbed in the events unfolding throughout as the Sengoku Era is brought to life like few others have achieved. I have always been huge fan of the Sengoku Era and Vagabond is arguably the best piece set in the era. Do yourself a favour and purchase this series. You will not be disappointed
