Viz Media, the publisher behind “Hell’s Paradise: Jigokuraku,” describes the manga as a gripping tale centered around Gabimaru the Hollow, one of the deadliest assassins to emerge from the ninja village of Iwagakure. He’s ruthless, efficient, and has a death sentence hanging over his head due to a betrayal. But here’s the kicker: he’s got one shot at redemption. In order to earn his freedom, he must embark on a dangerous mission to a long-hidden island and retrieve an elixir that could make the shogun immortal. Failure is not an option in this hair-raising journey where heaven and hell are just a breath away.
