2005: "Twilight," part 2 of 3. Giichi, a top Mugai-ryü assassin with a penchant for head collecting, has given the near-invincible warrior Manji an ultimatum: join the Mugai-ryü or die. Never one to be bossed around, Manji chooses the path of "mouthing off and fighting" with gusto. Armed with an arsenal of strange weapons and confidently relying on his mystical healing powers, Manji may be getting a little too cocky, especially since he's never had to recover from a beheading before. Within a moonlit forest, another stylish Samura skirmish begins, and two bloodthirsty fan-favorites clash. 32 pages, black and white,
