Blade of the Immortal #7

Fanatic (Part 1 of 2) For the sins of his past, Manji has been cursed with immortality. Before his curse will end -- before he can claim his eternal rest -- 1,000 sinners must die by his hand! Manji's female companion, Rin, finds the treasured sword of her destroyed kendo dojo (school of swordsmanship). The ronin who has it must have been involved in the destruction of the school -- and that means that Manji could be one step closer to ending his curse.
