I had only seen a frame of it.
Was it such a terrible scene?
I can’t forgive you.
It is above all.
Feudalism is crazy.
Appoint a preliminary suspect.
But it’s not like my lord specifically said to fabricate anything.
>>4I’m telling you, I’m here.
>>4If you report that the lord is not present when you said he was, it would diminish the lord’s dignity…
This person is stealthy.
>>14Call it an outrageous scene.
>>4Of course.
Even without fabrication, spies exist.
There is no need for fabrication; it is certain that there are spies.
The lord asserts that.
I feel a sense of melancholy for Fujiki, who seems to know to some extent but lets it go.
What should we do when absolute power is held by a dangerous person?
>>8It is checkmate.
>>8Let’s read Shigurui!!
>>8Even if you are not you.
A minister must be a minister.
>>21National peace and security, prosperity for the rulers and subjects.
If I report that no such person exists because it’s certain that they are among the dark rulers, it would mean that I’m incompetent and incapable of finding the spy.
This is a nameless spy.
dice1d8=4 (4)
Even the teacher Sasahara, who is practically the best martial artist in Japan, cannot help but become a puppet in a feudal society.
Is one out of the 22 going to become a spy?
It won’t easily back down; 1 is stealthy.
dice1d22=10 (10)
Isn’t it the one who kindly kills the wife and children right there?
Even the demon Tora-gan could not ignore sociality within the class society.
The narration succinctly symbolizes the work.
I said there’s definitely no ninja.
The shogun of the world wouldn’t even bother to keep an eye on trash like you. If you mess up, they’ll confirm it and then slowly crush you, and that’s the end of it.
It’s the same as confronting the facts.
It’s Gozzan.
The tatami that Fujiwara was cutting is the blood of that couple, right?
If the higher-ups are incompetent, the subordinates will struggle, right? That’s just a common thought.
>>22I think this work has that theme as well.
There’s no way I wouldn’t be here when I said I would be.
It seems like they think there’s no value in sending a ninja~~~!!! So I freak out.
The person with this spear is really a good person, isn’t he…?
>>24Even if you call it the “Torame-ryu” swordsmanship…
>>24Even such a person is powerless in a samurai feudal society…
>>24But in the end, I have to fight to the death with Fujiki.
Even someone as skilled, eloquent, and virtuous as Professor Sasahara is just a puppet in a feudal society.
It can be translated as “madness of death” or “madness of the warrior.”
Well, if there’s no one from that era, that’s fine, but the lord with that attitude is being looked down upon and will end up getting tripped up anyway…
>>28I don’t think anyone would create a situation where someone has to take responsibility if they were doing the right thing.
If it’s impossible even for this person, then it’s impossible for an individual to fight against power.
The dark lord, Tadanao, is stealthy! (BUSHU!)
Teacher Sasahara has really opened up to Fujioka.
It’s ridiculous that something like this could cost the head of the chief retainer…
Isn’t it wrong to aim for an officer just to become a subordinate of such a foolish ruler?
Just now
In custody.
Twenty-two nameless ones
Both have proper character and demeanor.
>>38Do not speak falsely.
Are you a spy?
I thought it would be better to sacrifice some random thugs around instead of diligently killing the people on the list and their wives…
>>39It must be someone with a clear identity, after all.
It is based on the premise that the ninja has infiltrated the entrusted residence beneath Shunpu.
>>39No, what the lord is saying is that there’s a spy hidden among these 22 people.
Because it improves milk production!
Killing the entire family quickly, without making them suffer, is at least a form of kindness, isn’t it…
Anonymous
Stealthy.
You don’t even know the faces and names of the 22 lords, do you?
>>46What does “anyway” mean?
Takeru… let’s go to Nirai Kanai.
All swordsmen shall fall.
It can be seen as being for the lord’s honor and peace of mind.
Well, it’s really a load of crap…
22 is the number of Tarot cards… in other words!?
It’s just a terrible story because lives are at stake.
To satisfy a boss who believes that mistakes will definitely occur, I intentionally make easy-to-spot mistakes.
Even in modern times, there are ways to make other things easier to access.
Modern feudal society is similar in many ways, though.
It’s like being fired is equivalent to dying.
>>54I’ve never seen a nameless person living in a feudal society before.
The so-called sense of doing.
The sacrifice is the life of the innocent.
Well, Tadanao was so worthless that, despite being the shogun’s brother, he was treated almost like an exile and died immediately in confinement.
>>56Well, they’re my lord, so it can’t be helped!
No matter what the reason is, someone who tries to deceive and go against those above them would never be tolerated in a feudal society.
I think this is a work that shows this in a way that can be thoroughly disliked outside of just this place.
>>58Irako has gone gray, but it’s been forgiven…
It’s not true that all ronin have proper character and bones… rather, those who are overly upright might have suspicious connections to the shogunate…
“It’s unavoidable that people die if they don’t act secretly.”
It’s been a while since I’ve seen Shigurui after getting used to the Seven Ninja of the Imperial Guard.
I’m surprised that there isn’t a single piece of humor mixed in; it’s entirely serious.
If it’s the Imperial Guard, even 6 pages would suffice for things like Azass, Gocchan, and Menomen.
It seems that a surreal gag could be inserted at least once…
Shigurui is clearly an outlier among the works of Young Sensei.
Because of this drawing, for a while the teacher couldn’t believe in heroes.
>>65Although distrust has clearly accelerated,
I think that at the time of “Banyou Inryoku” and “Goku-do,” there was a different blend of colors and dryness compared to the time of “Kakugo.”
>>65It feels like Exoscalibur from Shigurui was drawn as a rehabilitation manga.
>>88Actually, it says something like that in the afterword of the paperback as well…
Ah, my mental state is recovering, so it seems like humanity will manage to find a way to the end!
dice1d22=12 (12)
There’s no way I’m stealthy, how ridiculous.
Well, the protagonist is doing the same thing.
What happens after this?
>>68I will stab and kill the ronin who was joyfully saying that he could finally serve in the palace, along with his pregnant wife and another person, with a spear.
>>68Even the saintly couple, who are at a level where even Fujiki and Sanmi can open their hearts, are summoned and both of them (and their unborn child) are speared to death.
>>68Stealth: “Are you going to hire me? Yay!”
Sasahara: “What do you think of this spear?” 💥💥💥
Fujiaki: “Koi koku is delicious.”
Happy ending
>>82Hey!
>>84I will kill you because you are stealthy.
>>84Are you denying Lord Tadanao’s reasoning? I order you to commit seppuku.
>>82Whether the three strikes are compassionate or merciless.
Shigurui really gives off the feeling that it’s drawn with a lot of life at stake.
Is the counselor showing loyalty to such a worthless lord to that extent?
If the lord falls from power, it would probably lead to collateral consequences.
>>71The younger brother of the shogun usually does not lose power.
Usually
>>71If you don’t show loyalty, you’ll be killed before you can be overthrown.
They are not in a position to be said to be falling from power or not.
Choosing the target to kill randomly is too sloppy.
But looking at the participants, who are really terrible, the judgment of “everyone is good!” is just too sloppy.
What’s so cool about samurai?
>>76To be frank, what we call coolness is just an image cut out from a single aspect.
Everything is like that.
>>76It was an era where being strong equated to being cool…
Well, the times are beginning to shift where those who rely on violence at the moment of the image are no good!
The group led by that foolish old man who can’t understand basic concepts has perished.
Even Mr. Tiger Eye is stunned in shock.
Isn’t it true that Irako is not under the custody of Sasahara-dono, despite being of excellent character?
Looking at the disposal of Ietada, I thought that Iemitsu shows no mercy even to his own blood brother.
>>81Because just when the world of peace and stability finally came, it would be unbearable to have it disturbed.
>>81It seems that I treated my half-brother quite affectionately.
Even though we are brothers by blood, or rather because of that, it felt like I couldn’t treat him without mercy.
I think they should just assassinate that guy already… but my retainers try to stop me, and the worst part is that he’s skilled with a sword.
The completed form of a feudal society is composed of a few sadists and many masochists.
>>89In reality, there are no abnormal sadists in a feudal society, but it is a society where everyone suffers.
It’s better than having a clear villain.
I’m curious if they would honestly prepare for 10,000 people if someone says there are about 10,000 suspicious individuals.
>>91If asked whether I could massacre 10,000 subjects, I think it’s something I could potentially do.
>>91If we look at history, China can do it.
Even if there is no resentment or dislike for the brothers themselves, it would be a big problem if they were raised up and the country was divided…
>>92Still, if my brother didn’t have any ambition and was a decent person, that would be fine.
When you have ambition and you’re a bit out of your mind… well… you know…
Gross
Compared to before Shigurui, Shigurui is too different… Why did I feel like writing Shigurui…?
>>96Isn’t the interest in erotic grotesque nonsense easy to understand?
It’s strange that I ended up discovering the brutal period drama novels from the Showa era, which had faded away during the Heisei era.
In that case, wouldn’t it have been better for you to show a bit more consideration, Sasahara-dono, like with this ronin over here?
Troublemaker Fujiki and so on…
It seems that this superior is also supporting Sasahara-dono in some way.
>>103If I say “I’m not here!” I might end up being asked, “Are you the one in hiding?”
The greatest mercy that Sasahara could offer was to resolve even a moment of suffering without causing any pain in the happiest moments.
Even though it’s not in Shigurui, there are participants who are ninjas.
For the sake of appearances, let’s just kill someone, anyone… it’s terrible that the main characters are doing this too.
When one is at the height of happiness, having secured a position serving in the castle, to kill without revealing it…
I wonder if everything would have been fine if I had just become a monk quickly.
>>110Historically, if Tadachika had changed his attitude while Hidetada was still alive and maintained a stance of loyalty toward Iemitsu, I think he would have been the most prominent branch of the family.
Manga Chujun is impossible no matter what.
The existence of ninjas themselves is quite troublesome.
Saying this while looking away really adds to the artistic merit…
It’s fine to use that toad sword technique.
>>115He said he would kill anyone who laid a hand on O-chika, but in the end, it turned out to be that…
Even though it’s so crazy, in the end, it’s a pet dog…
The tyrant who cut open his abdomen at the beginning… just passed by…
In today’s salarymen, the inability to do things is said to be due to a lack of ingenuity!
Feudal society was a harsh one, but even at the time, Tadaaki went too far, so there was at least a minimum level of restraint that led to him being forced to commit seppuku.
If the lord is absolute.
I couldn’t find it like on page 4, so it’s just a matter of me getting fired.
You’re just twisting it to make it seem like it’s Chudai’s intention, driven solely by your desire to save yourself.
>>121In that case, it’s not just my head that would roll, but also my clan and my subordinates.
It is a checkmate.
The historical facts about Tadanobu are indeed serious when it comes to various hand strikes…
Other crazy episodes seem suspicious, but just the fact that they are killing so much is already impossible…
In this era, false accusations are so common that it’s probably not surprising at all.
>>124An era where there is only testimony as evidence.
In the end, I feel like it’s just the usual relationships that matter.
>>170The era where lacking social skills leads to immediate social death is longer than I expected.
The ninja was supposed to remain a ninja, but did they appear in Shigurui?
Not a pitiful person.
I feel that the story about it being carbohydrates isn’t entirely a lie regarding the heinous act.
It’s amazing how history shows that placing incompetent people in power leads to failure.
There is an ancient saying, “There are things that should not be accepted with one’s life,” for times like this, but it can easily be misused.
What’s amazing is that they haven’t even looked at the list of criminals.
Closing my eyes and tearing paper, I really feel blind.
>>129What does that mean…?
>>130No… it’s just blind faith towards my lord…
That’s the right thing to do, but in this era…
What are you saying…?
I wonder if there’s also self-preservation involved…
It’s amazing how you haven’t picked up on anything at all.
There are some amazing interpretations out there…
Sasahara, aren’t you embarrassed by this?
Stop making excuses and show me what you’ve got, man.
I have no idea what is blind!
Yeah, after reading it a few times, I understand what you want to say.
However, it is something that can be sensed immediately upon looking at the thread image, and it’s not something that needs to be elaborated into a reply.
When it’s specifically transcribed, I get surprised and wonder if it has some implication.
Feudal system is scary, isn’t it?
>>139Indeed, in reality, it’s not that lawless.
Well, putting that aside, the tyrant will appear.
>>142What’s serious is that it’s really bad in the countryside…
A nobody lord is causing havoc among his subjects…
It didn’t really matter who I flipped through randomly.
I think it’s just that I randomly chose because deciding based on names or the survey results makes me feel guilty…
Since Tadanao has been entrusted with 550,000 koku and the important area of Suruga, he is given considerable favor and trust, so unless something very serious happens, he is unlikely to receive the death penalty.
There is no one in Shigurui who blindly trusts Tadanaga.
Rather, I don’t go through the catalog because I don’t blindly trust it.
Anmitsu?
>>145At least it’s bamboo shoot, right?
>>145Take-mitsu!
>>149Did you say “namakura”?
I mean, if there were actually spies, these guys would be useless…
>>147The story is that there’s no one among those gathered.
Feudalism is described in the narration as a large-scale BDSM between one sadist and many masochists.
>>150I’ve made various mistakes being pulled by sadists and masochists…
A boss who does worthless things for self-preservation and for their subordinates, and a good-natured subordinate who is a puppet of a feudal society.
Which one do you like better, Mie?
This person is Shiaki.
>>154Go
Unreasonable…
Sasayan might have said that if he were the only one involved, he wouldn’t want to kill, but since it would bring dishonor to his family, subordinates, and acquaintances, he couldn’t say that.
If I say I don’t want to, I’ll die.
Above all, I cannot go against the command of my lord, to whom I owe my loyalty.
>>158Considering the temperament of Tadanao.
Couldn’t find it? So you were the one hiding, huh…
It could end up being that way, you know.
>>161On the contrary, if I say that all of you are incompetent, there is a possibility that everyone will face the death penalty.
Upon closer inspection, in the panel that says “This person is stealthy,” they are looking away from the list of names and trying not to look at it.
Guilt, huh?
If the tyrant absolutely asserted that there are spies, then there’s nothing that can be done…
In the story, even though Tiger Eye-sensei is portrayed as a crazy abnormal person, in front of his superiors, he continuously tries to curry favor with a smile, saying 😁 “Hehe…”
Looking at the expression, there might be a little guilt, but it seems like “I don’t care who it is, but this guy is a stealthy one, so please take care of it. I don’t know anything about it.”
A feeling of pretentiousness.
Generally, we don’t impose the death penalty or genocide just based on a report that there were no spies.
Because there is a negative sense of trust regarding Tadanaga’s character…
This work begins with the powerful figure, Tadanao, who acts freely and is defeated by an even greater power, leading to his death…
In the original novel, there are quite a few ninjas, right?
>>169It seems there was a match where stealthy individuals were fighting each other.
It’s great, isn’t it… a masochistic swordsman who loves to be cut down by beautiful men…
I’ve heard that European feudal society was a world where the lower could easily rise up against the higher, but was that not the case in our country?
>>174Completely different.
This guy is just a normal piece of crap.
It can’t be helped that I’m doing this because my lord is Tadanao… that’s a big part of it.
Until then, many have seen that a large number of people have become victims of the irrational temperament of the tyrannical ruler and their faction.
This person is a troublemaker.
Even today, the police mess up about once every few years.
If it were just me dying, the spear-wielder might rebel too.
The Chūnagon in this manga won’t let it end like that, so there’s nothing we can do.
“I casually killed one person and reported a stealthy victory.”
If there are any other stealthy ones, won’t that one become free?
>>183In that case, if you keep repeating the same thing, you’ll eventually hit the real thing.
“It seems that the government is quite wary of our clan.”
“It seems that the skilled covert agent has been sullied… They’re not easily giving away their tail… Just a little more time, please.”
Speaking of which, it will probably be extended.
>>185This person is stealthy.
Well, if it’s a ronin, then it can’t be helped.
The fact that the one who truly has no intention of searching for a spy is the one who looks down on the lord the most.
So, were there really ninjas?
I killed him because he was there.
Whether it was truly a secret remains unknown since the corpse cannot speak or confirm it.
