Description
From Evil Flowers:

During their senior trip on the cruise ship Victoria, a group of friends is suddenly pulled back in time and separated. The main character, Hayumi Natsuki, arrives in the year 1636. In Japanese history, Christian rebels, led by a young man known as Amakusa Shirou, revolted in 1637, which resulted in thousands of casualties. However, when Natsuki arrives in the past, she and her friend Eri discover that Shirou Tokisada is already dead. Meanwhile, Natsuki, according to the villagers and Shirou’s parents, looks exactly like their late son (disregarding the fact that Natsuki is female). Natsuki, the kendo champion of her school and heir to her family’s Hakuhouryuu kendo style, simply cannot stand by and watch innocent people be persecuted simply for being Christian. Soon she even becomes known as an angel, sent from God, whose arrival was prophesied 25 years earlier. But what will she do when old friends become new enemies?

From what I've read up until now, I am totally in love! The art isn't the best but it manages to capture your attention! I'm pretty sure once more chapters are released and the story is able to develop more than Amakusa 1637 will have much more for us readers! <3

it's boring. Just so boring.
The art is average, the story is plain & the usual story (it reminds me of an author called Hohlbein - he made a story the same way. Throw in a guy/gal in a new world, throw others in who were with her but came sooner than her to the other world.)
Bang. That's the story.
The characters aren't interesting in any way and well.... I've found nothing about this manga that would want me to read on. After only two chapters is this manga over for me.

And even after reading Laclongquans comment I've got no idea how 11(!) people can like this series so much to give it a rating of 10 points.

Ah chapter 4 is out today. Such a longest break!

I should give a raving review to this manga. I really should. But it's only 4 chapters now, a review is a bit too early. So I will give some impressions, preview if you will.

If we had to categorize this manga, you can say it's Alternate History, and Time Travel . It means that characters was thrown back in time, to another universe pretty similar to their own. Historical events tend to happen the same but they can change it.IT will depend on the efforts of main characters.

Art: the art is simply beautiful. you could say it's the best of AKAISHI Michiyo so far. Clear and clean, the drawings are nice to the eyes.

Storyline: interesting so far. With four, five characters so far, the mangaka has a broad space to spun the tales in 3 different lines. We will have to wait to see how that develop.

An interesting sidenote: the link between Miyamoto Musashi and Amakusa also was mentioned in Hagane manga.

Characters: Strong boys and girls, and I dont mean muscles. they are high school students, 18 at best, thrown back in time to another place and they can still keep their heads. Even a girl, Eri, look a girly and weak, has a fierce determination. I like strong character and Akaishi Michiyo doesnt disappoint me.

Well, enough of that. Now I will go bug the hell out of the group to make them release faster.
