Starting Notes: Man, it's already up to 6 volumes and just now do I find scanilations. I wasn't sure what to expect from this series, but it actually surpassed my muddled expectations. Good job Rabbit!

Synopsis: The main character Udagawa Gosuke has received his father's dojo, mainly because his father and older brother were made to commit hara-kiri. He really wasn't supposed to get it simply because he's a second son. 'cause of the way his pops and brother died he's got not a whole lot of self confidence so he practices fencing day by day 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 enjoy it.

However what really sets this aside from most Shonen is that the main character male and female are actually married (At age 15 no less!) The girl Utagawa 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 its because "The rabbits will someday reach the moon." When Gosuke invents his new dojo, he decides to make a style of swordsmanship known as "Rabbit style fencing."

Review: What can I say, the first chapter took a tiny bit of trudging through to get good, but...it was also 3 in the morning *Shudder* I was actually immensly impressed. This series is a real joy to read. It's light and fun, yet actiony at the same time. Gosuke is a fantasticly made character, and so is pretty much everyone else. And watching Gosuke grow closer to his wife and overcome limitations of the status obsessed Era is adorable and entertaining.

Closing Notes: Not much for here this time. What more to say, this series is fun to read and brings an innocent joy to your heart. The fights need a tad bit of work, but I've only read 5 chapters XP
