Summary
When J, the man everyone fears, returns to town, the city's delinquents are in an uproar. Some challenge him, some try to use him, some try to get close to him. Where will J end up at the end of the long struggle...?
Serialized in Weekly Young Magazine from 1983 to 1984.
Volume 1 released in September 1984.
Volume 2 released in February 1985.
... and the second season of the Anime did a better job of pacing than I thought they would. I think they moved the Elf village arc from before hostilities with the Principality began to the inter-war period, aka the start of the second season, and used that to pad it out. Good call if that's what they did. In any event. Good season.
