But one day a girl was found buried inside sand and she has a key hole on her wrist, the symbol of a Kagijin, one who posses demonic powers that can withstand that of an army. The empire who kept her as a slave arrives to retrieve her, however Tsubame refuses to hand her over and promises her that he will free her. How will he do so?

Review by SameOld
This is basically every single shonen cliche put together into an ugly, disjointed and incredibly bland mess. It's almost offensive to the readers' intellect. I find it hard to believe Japan's best-selling manga anthology gives such an amateurish work 19 pages every week. I figured they might have some kind of quality control there, but if this is any indication, there's none. Thankfully, it seems like it won't last long in the magazine. Permalink " "

SameOld basically summed it up pretty well, and now, thankfully, Kagijin has ended. Good riddance to rubbish. Permalink " "

Review by 88 Movement
In my opinion this manga was amazing. Why we still have Bleach, Reborn and Naruto running puzzles me. They are the garbage of Shonen Jump. Stuff like Toriko, One Piece, JJBA and Kagijin are good manga. Dropping it was a big mistake for Weekly Shonen Jump. Permalink " "
