Itsuwaribito, Vol. 17

The adventures of a liar and his band of friends who use lies to do good.
Utsuho’s truthfulness as a child resulted in an enormous catastrophe, and he decided to lie from that day forward. Raised in a village of orphans by a monk, Utsuho is an unrepentant troublemaker. The monk eventually inspires him to help people, but there’s no way Utsuho’s going to lead an honest life! Instead, he’s going to use his talents for mischief and deception for good!
In the Land of Owari, Utsuho meets the local hero Gin Hobaku, who winds up being the itsuwaribito who killed Utsuho’s family! Yearning for revenge, Utsuho confronts Gin in the street, which turns out to be a very bad decision. His friends try to help, but they prove no match for Gin and his partner Kin, who seem unstoppable. Have the adventures of Utsuho and company finally come to an abrupt, violent end?
