Tail of the Moon is a “romantic ninja comedy” that contains some history by Rinko Ueda. It is a about a kunoichi named Usagi who seems very hopeless at being one so her grandfather sends her out to marry a ninja named Hanzo and bear his children. At first he rejects her and doesn’t want to get married, but as Usagi stays by his side, time and events bring them closer together as the story progresses.
I thought I would pick this up because I thought 15 volumes would keep me entertained over the summer but when I started reading I thought it was a pretty good story. There are funny, dramatic and action scenes that mix things up a bit and keep the story interesting. The style of art isn’t my most favourite, but it is pretty. For those who aren’t a fan of shojo-iness, then maybe this isn’t the best choice because at times it does become redundant. Overall, this story is a good read, it’s a relaxed story you can pick up and read when you’re in any type of mood. All 15 volumes are in the Central library if anyone wants to take a look.
