Samurai Deeper (Manga by Akimine Kamijyo)

[Jesse66126 4]

Samurai Deeper is about a split personality medicine-seller/samurai named Kyoshiro. The story is kind of like a cross between Trigun,Ruroni Kenshin,and Samurai Shamploo.

 

While selling medicine,Kyoshiro stumbles upon a beautiful woman who "floppies" to get his attention,then pulls her gun on him when his guard is down.

Turns out the girl is a bounty hunter named Yuya Shiina,and she's after the 1,000,000 yen reward on him.

 

During a bandit attack,his other half emerges,he warns them in advance shouting,"HE WILL COME! RUN!"

Unlike in Ruroni Kenshin,Kyoshiro's other half is sadistic and evil,butching his enemies,hacking them into pieces with his lightning fast sword technique. He stops just short of killing Yuya when she tells him of her mission to find a samurai with a scar on his back.(Similar to the vague "Sun Flower Samurai" from Samurai Shamploo) Intriged,he spares her life,even offering to help her,however if she wavers from her path,he would kill her "without mercy". He then changes back to normal,to his nice,friendly personality,frantically asking if he hurt her.

 

Okay,I won't spoil any more,read it yourself!

the manga is waaaay better! The anime is more like a scrambled egg compared to a boiled egg.

It's still an egg with all the protein,it's just distorted and mixed up.
