4.0

In Fangs of the Black Tiger, the last swordsman of the Blue Mountain searches for his captured young companion, who is trying to survive in the company of rebels. Vol. 2 is more introspective, with the reader learning more about the swordsman, the girl, and fierce supporting characters. The fulsomeness of martial arts is explored, lending insight into characters and enriching the fantasy worldbuilding. The last fight scene is intense. Also, the book's footnotes are helpful and humorous.
