History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi is a manga that I recently began reading which turns out to be quite excellent. Kenichi is a book lover who has just entered high school, but he is often bullied by others. One day, he became good friends with the new transfer student, Fuurinji Miu, who was also looking for a friend. Kenichi was shocked at how powerful she is at first, but he is still somehow attracted to her. the story follows the two as they attend school, grow into adults, and battle brutal street gangs.
To be honest, I can't quite put a finger on what I find so alluring about this manga. Perhaps the wistful innocence of adolescence or the admirable discipline with which they pursue their study of martial arts. Perhaps the plot twists that leave you guessing at every turn. I can say, without exaggeration, that this manga could be the War and Peace of our generation.
The artwork is also fantastic. The line work is phenomenal and the coloring is simply superb. But even after all that, even after I extol each of the individual virtues of the series, words still cannot convey the excellence of this series. It simply has to be read.
For an enigmatic, enthralling adventure, I give it the highest rating awarded by the RGC. If you're not reading History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi right now, you're doing it wrong.
