Kamudo [manga]. Volume 1 / story and art by Akirda Himekawa ; translation, David Evelyn ; lettering, Sara Linsley.
Before humans claimed their place in history, the skybound paradise of Hinoaruchi was ruled by demi-beings under the watch of Ryujinkyo's demi-dragons. Now, as prophecy foretells a turbulent new age, will the birth of Kamuna, the first human child, bring disaster or salvation? In the utopian nation of Ryujinkyo, Kamuna--a boy born with the form of a human and the left hand of a dragon--grapples with his identity in a society that both questions and fears his existence. As he begins his training in the ancient art of ryuken, his determination to prove himself fuels a growing rivalry with the fierce demi-dragon Gindu. Meanwhile, tensions simmer beneath the surface as factions outside Ryujinkyo grow restless, seeking to control the divine pulse that sustains the land...
