""Female samurai with cell phones and Wi-Fi turn feudal Japan upside down in this humorous, genre-bending graphic novel."" -- Publishers Weekly ""Entertaining and empowering."" -- Kirkus Reviews ""Incorporating modern technology and an offbeat contemporary tone, the authors offer an innovative blend of a modern and feudal Japan that balances weightier matters of loss and honor. Schaffer creates a commendably comedic and diverse medievalism in her myriad of goofy expressions, skin tones, and action-oriented art that well-suits the feminist, punk-rock tone of Tokuda-Hall's writing. Fans of Fumi Yoshinaga's Ooku: The Inner Chambers and N.D. Stevenson's Nimona will soon find themselves swearing fealty to this exciting new title."" -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books (starred review)"
