From Del Rey:
Avenging his father's murder is a matter of honor for the young samurai Jintetsu. But it turns out that the killer is a corrupt government official-and now the powers that be are determined to hunt Jintetsu down like an animal. There's only one problem: Jintetsu is already dead.
Torn to pieces by a pack of dogs, Jintetsu's ravaged body has been found by Genkichi, outcast and master inventor. Genkichi gives the dead boy a new, indestructible steel body and a talking sword-just what he'll need to face down the gang that's terrorizing his hometown and the mobster who ordered his father's hit. But what about Otsuki, the beautiful girl he left behind? And what will lay ahead in his journey?
Steel armor is defense against any sword, but it can't save Jintetsu from the pain in his heart.

"The Exorcism Chronicles" is based on "Journey to the West" but takes a different approach, portraying Jiang Liu'er and his three disciples as exorcists rather than seekers of scriptures. The author's interpretation of "Journey to the West" can be seen as advocating justice, championing small acts of kindness, fearlessly opposing authority, and embracing freedom. Along the way, the four disciples unite in their shared goals, combating demons and monsters such as the White Bone Demon, Sea Monster, Nine-Headed Worm, and others, all in the name of justice and protection rather than enduring the trials necessary for obtaining scriptures.
Simultaneously, the series responds to the significance of scripture seekers and exorcists, suggesting that achieving ultimate enlightenment is vast and boundless, while attaining smaller victories is tangible and grounded. Jiang Liu'er and his disciples choose the latter path, with Jiang Liu'er often remarking to the Buddha, "I'm just a freelance monk," signifying their divergence in paths.
