The story starts slow, with mostly daily hijinx surrounding the titular character as a retired assassin. However, the story quickly developed into exploring the underworld and crime syndicates at war. What is interesting is, that the main character himself is not centered around this conflict, but still he involves himself in order to maintain his peaceful life and the people he loves. In that, he appears almost like a force that suddenly would appear in the heat of battle to tip the scale to the good guy's favor.
The main character aside, the series is filled with colorful and interesting supporting characters. Each with a unique fighting style and personality that gets their spotlight. In that regard, the fighting is one of the best part of this series. It consistently treats you with action set pieces that go over the top in a good way. This is supported by its world-building. The manga created a world where the assassin is such a known thing that common folks would appear to be nonchalant to all the destruction happening around them. This made the spotlight never leave the giant explosion and skyscraper-slashing action that dominates the page.
Overall, it's another action-filled platter that will leave you craving for more.
