A sharp short story technique! A collection of gems of period works! A collection of historical drama comics that were very popular among boys in the 1950s! It's not just the thrilling chanbara action, but also the well-thought-out story development that only Fujiko F. Fujio can offer. It is reminiscent of the later ``Shonen SF short stories'' and is a great read! "Takemitsu Itto-ryu", "Yamabiko Swordsman" (Part 1/2), "Sea's Kai Swordsman", "Denkomame Swordsman", "Kagerou Swordsman", which were published as an appendix of "Manga King", and "Treasure Hunting Heroes" published in this magazine. Contains the previous six works. (Commentary/Yokotakuo)
