We start with our main protagonist, Shichimi, bidding farewell as he readies for his journey into Edo (on our Earth, Edo was the old name of Tokyo before it became the capital of Japan). His mother has just died, only leaving him a walnut and a request for him to go to his half-siblings. Shichimi bids farewell to a sternly old man, who is a firefighter. We can tell this from the symbol on his cloak. This symbol is also on Shichimi's cloak. Upon reaching the town of Edo, Shichimi meets a mysterious man, who ridicules the peace of the world as an illusion. --- Official Release: - Indonesian release by Elex Media as **Natane** (1993: tankoubon; 2011: bunkouban)

The main character Udagawa Gosuke has inherited his father's dojo, mainly because his father and elder brother were made to commit hara-kiri. He wasn't really supposed to get it simply because he's a second son. Due to the way his father and brother died, he doesn't have a whole lot of self confidence, so he practices fencing daily at a nearby dojo. However, because the people at that dojo are asses, he soon tries to invent a dojo and a style for people who just want to enjoy themselves. However, what really sets this aside from most shounen is that the male and female main characters are actually married. His wife, Udagawa Shino, is the younger sister of his senpai, and is a bit… weird, to say the least. She makes rabbit masks to help bring in a bit of money, although to say that she's obsessed with rabbits would be an understatement. She claims it's because "the rabbits will someday reach the moon." When Gosuke founds his new dojo, he decides to create a style of swordsmanship known as "Rabbit Style Fencing."

Aotsuki Ushio's family maintains a Shinto temple in Japan, where 500 years ago, his samurai ancestor battled a demon to a standstill, and eventually trapped him against a rock using a blessed spear called the "Beast Spear". While cleaning out the temple storage, Ushio accidentally unseals the chamber the demon, later named Tora by Ushio, was trapped in. Initially, Ushio wisely refuses to remove the spear pinning the monster down, as Tora unwisely makes the strategic blunder of mentioning that the first thing he would do upon being freed would be to devour Ushio; but Tora's unsealed presence attracts various demons to the premises, and Ushio is forced to free Tora in exchange for his help. The two later realize that they make a perfect team, despite the latter's reservations to eating the former. - **Won the Shogakukan Manga Award for Shonen in 1992** - **Won the Seiun Award for Best Comic in 1997** --- **Officially Published:** - In Italian by [Star Comics](https://starcomics.com/testate-fumetti/ushio-e-tora-perfect-edition) --- **Links:** - [Author's Twitter](https://twitter.com/ufujitakazuhiro?lang=ja) - [1992 OVAs on ANN](https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=237) - [Anime Season 1 on ANN](https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=16754) - [Anime Season 2 on ANN](https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=17232)
