Hell’s Paradise: Jigokuraku

A manga about an unkillable ninja on death row who is recruited to investigate a mysterious island to find an elixir of immortality in exchange for his freedom.

We talked about this series on Darfox Dabbles.

The extreme high quality of this series can’t be understated. I can’t say enough about Yuji Kaku‘s fantastic artwork. Stylish action sequences and gorgeous backdrops help bring the story to life. Even the first chapter could be a stand alone one shot for it’s wonderful storytelling. This series would’ve been popular in any magazine but I think they chose to serialize it as a web manga because of the violence. Currently it stands as a flagship manga for Jump+.

You can read all the available chapters on VIZ with a subscription and I highly recommend it.
