The first full-length adventure from Gosho Aoyama, the legendary creator of Case Closed!
Yaiba Kurogane is an energetic young swordsman who’s grown up in the jungle training to be a samurai with his father, Kenjuro. When they return to Japan, chaos seems to follow wherever Yaiba goes! Destined to be a legendary hero, Yaiba must learn to be a true samurai and save the world!
Yaiba, accompanied by the 400-year-old Musashi Miyamoto, and his friends Sayaka, Kagetora, and Shonosuke, embarks on a training journey so he can defeat Onimaru. Onimaru, now a demon, has seized control of Japan and turned the parliament building into Onimaru Castle! His sights are set on Raijinken—Yaiba’s Thunder God Sword—and he’ll stop at nothing to take it!

Gosho Aoyama made his debut in 1986 with Chotto Mattete (Wait a Minute), which won Shogakukan’s prestigious Shinjin Comic Taisho (Newcomer’s Award for Comics) and launched his career as a critically acclaimed, top-selling manga artist. In addition to Case Closed, which won the Shogakukan Manga Award in 2001, Aoyama created the popular manga Yaiba: Samurai Legend, which won the Shogakukan Manga Award in 1993. Aoyama’s manga is greatly influenced by his boyhood love for mystery, adventure, and baseball, and he has cited the tales of Arsène Lupin and Sherlock Holmes, along with the samurai films of Akira Kurosawa, as some of his childhood favorites.
