A Sekiro manga comes out next month and it looks bloody as hell
Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is getting a manga spin-off that will follow the story of Hanbei the Undying. Who? You might know him better as the guy that volunteers himself to be your practice dummy - he lets you slice up his "warm body" with your deadly moves. Still don't know who he is? You can find Hanbei to the right of the Dilapidated Temple statue at the beginning of the game. His name, the Undying, comes from the fact that he seems to be unable to die.
News of the Sekiro side-story manga was first announced by Kadokawa's Comic Walker website. It will be available from there in Japanese from May 27. But don't worry if you can't read Japanese, because as AnimeNewsNetwork points out, it seems US-based graphic novel publisher Yen Press will also be releasing a version of the manga, presumably in English. Details of when and where such a version of the manga will be available are yet to be released.
However, Yen Press did give us a short description of the manga: "The Sengoku Era… A time when losing a battle meant losing it all. The Sword Saint, Isshin Ashina, aims for world domination… That is, until he encounters a certain Samurai…"
