As samurai were losing their bearings in a time of change, Yuki brought back the demonic spirit of vengeance. And the good part about this last volume of "Lady Snowblood" is that she saved her most hated targets for last. Yet, in the midst of a maelstrom of sex and violence, the reader will still catch a few glimpses of warmth and human compassion. That's because Kazuo Koike, the creator of the popular "Lone Wolf and Cub" manga, knows how to build around good characters, and "Lady Snowblood" is certainly no exception. See how it all ends in Volume 4, the second part of "Retribution."
