Wow. The story with Koun's group and their battle with Kojiro was amazing. Easily my favorite part of this manga, along with Musashi's rematch with Inshun, and the Musashi-Baiken fight. Although I knew it was inevitable that these guys were going to die, it didn't make it any less painful to watch them go one by one. Inoue did a great job developing them, even more so considering they were around only for a short time. My one question is whether or not Shinjiro survived. He kind of slumped over at the end, so...

For now, it looks like the story is getting back to Musashi.

Yeah, Inoue indeed developed them really well. A praise for him.
Also, Kojiro is becoming such a wonderful character, almost more developed than Musashi. Anyway, I hope that after this the story returns to Musashi.

Kojiro looks so innocent sometimes but he is a monster. Koun should have win the battle.

Powerfull ending! Amazing how Inoue made this group of samurai so interesting even tough they only appeared for such a short time.
All in all the Kojiro Arc was long (8 Volumes?), but damn we saw all of it. From the moment Jisai took him in, up an till the moment of him becoming a monster of a warrior.
I give the Kojiro Arc an 8,5/10, probably my 2 or 3 most liked arc out of the 6 we had so far.
I am f'ing ready to see Musashi back at it!

I kinda want the story to still focus on Kojiro but if we go back to see how Musashi is doing or maybe Takezo during the war then I guess that wouldn't be so bad either.

...and the kojiro arc probably comes to an end with kuon's demise. i didnt expect any of the soldiers to win but they were pretty cool considering how late they got introduced. sadakore treated his men as his sons, ichizo was a naiive kid, ugen and tohismune i dont really know much, and koun was a literal madman.

arc was just fucking amazing, not sure what to say. jisai and ittosai are cool as fuck and kojiro got some great development. it still bums me out that tenki got killed off because of matahaci's fraudulent ass.

time to move on from the beach village
man.
