Otaku daily picks | manga | Ushio to Tora
Hi, the pick today is the shounen supernatural action manga "Ushio to Tora". This manga is about Ushio a young teenager that lives in a Shinto temple maintained by his family. One day is dad ordered him to clean the temple storage, in the process, Ushio accidentally finds and unseals a chamber where he finds Tora a monster like tiger pinned by a spear. Because Tora is unsealed it attracts demons to the temple that start to attack two of Ushio friends.
That Ushio to remove the spear and free Tora in exchange for his help to defeat the demons...
Ushio to Tora won the Seiun Award for Best Comic of the Year in 1997 and the Shogakukan Manga Award for shounen in 1992.
Description:
Ushio's family maintains a Shinto temple in Japan, where 500 years ago, his samurai ancestor battled that same tiger to a standstill, and eventually trapped him against a rock using, a blessed spear called the "Beast Spear", which in addition to its intrinsic formidability as a weapon, can also boost the physical powers of the user. While cleaning out the temple storage, Ushio accidentally unseals the chamber which Tora was trapped in. Initially, Ushio wisely refused to remove the spear pinning Tora (とら, Japanese for tiger) down, as Tora unwisely makes the strategic blunder of mentioning that the first thing he would do upon being freed would be to devour Ushio; but Tora's unsealed presence attracts various demons to the premises, and Ushio is forced to free Tora in exchange for his help. The series focuses on their relationship, interspersed with battles against mythological foes, and with Tora's attempts to grapple with modern life and gobble up Ushio.

I watched the new anime of Ushio to Tora that came out recently. the story is amazing. I love the interaction between Ushio and all the characters. Tora has a tough guy aura. I'm not going to say any more to spoil the story. Thank you for sharing this manga!
