I recently started to read Wolfsmund 狼の口: ヴォルフスムント by KUJI Mitsuhisa 久慈光久. This is a historical fiction manga (6 volumes – 3 out so far and another volume due out tomorrow), seinen about the Swiss fight for independence. As with much historical fiction there is a lot of fiction about real people – including the way Wilhelm Tell dies.
This is adult manga and very explicit especially about violence, after all, it’s about a revolution. So far it’s been fairly interesting. Also, get ready for most, if not all, of the heroes to die. This is not manga for the squeamish.
It was published in Japan by Enterbrain and in Canada by Vertical, which is getting the volumes out in a fairly reasonable rate but could do it quicker. Sometimes every other month sometimes 4 months between – no date out for the last volume to be published.
