Summary: Kyoshiro, medicine peddler, is minding his own business when bounty hunter Yuya picks him up to turn him in for the one million ryo bounty on his (that is, Demon Eyes Kyo's) head. Then she finds out that he is a different person, with his own bounty on his head, and is rather disappointed that turning him in will get her very little in comparison to Kyo. However, when they end up in a bad situation, Kyoshiro disappears and Demon Eyes Kyo comes forward. Why do these men share the same body?

Commentary: I really like the characters and the story is wonderful. It really gets you hooked. The characters are very complex. Kyo seems evil and Kyoshiro seems good, at least, at first. But then after so many things happen, it's difficult to know where anyone is in the scheme of things. Read it and you'll see what I mean.

Rating: 10/10
Reasons for Rating: Great characters and story! Very addictive!
