About this title

Synopsis

The people have demanded change; Criterion boxes were created for the purpose of the people to leave their complaints in it. The result of this were two changes: the first being the creation of "Koishigawa Youjoujo" for the people, the second being an inner-city magistrate office, known as the Mushibugyou. Tsukishima Jinbee is a warrior who aims to be best, under the belief that a weak warrior isn't a warrior at all. He was scouted out by a representative to join the Mushibugyou and told to go to Edo with the instructions that he'd know what to do once he got there. Shortly after arriving at Edo, he hears a scream and goes to check it out... to find a giant spider-like creature devouring some citizens of Edo. Being a warrior, there's no way he could stand this... (Source: MU)

    The son of a samurai whose father was forced to cut off his own leg in repentance for an incident involving Jinbei and the son of his master, despite not being his fault. When his father is summoned to join Mushibugyou, Jinbei departs to Edo to join the magistrate in his place to make up for his sacrifice and restore the honor of his family. Despite being far stronger than a normal human, Jinbei is the weakest member of the team, making up for his inexperience with determination and an unyielding spirit that ends up earning him the respect and admiration of his peers.

    The strongest warrior in the City Patrol, Mugai is swordsman capable of feats that seem impossible for a human. Fittingly, his name means "limitless". Mugai was once the leader of a group called Mushigari, or the "Insects Hunters", but for some reason he abandoned it to join the magistrate. Both Jinbei and Hibachi look up to him and dream of being one day as strong as him to repay the several occasions he saved their lives. He seem to be emotionless and ruthless on the surface, but sometimes his actions show otherwise. His sword is as big as him and has the ability to absorb insects and imitate or adapt their strength and abilities. (Source: Wikipedia)
