Okubo Atsushi is better known for his more recent work, Soul Eater. However he also assisted on the older series, Get Backers. B.Ichi is his first independent work where he did both the art and story.

A rather lacklustre volume that started off dull and went to pure crap. Though It did have a few moments that made me chuckle.
