3 stars - I liked it

This was an interesting start for this story. This is a dystopian world with samurai robots that are programmed to protect humans. Part 1 stops right after the death of Hiro’s father. The world is interesting but we know very little about who Hiro or his father is, why there are robot samurai, or what is going on in this world from these few pages.

While we don’t get a lot in these few pages, it was interesting and I want to know more now. Also the art style is very good and I love the bold colors that were used.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This book was short but amazing and I loved the art which was fantastic. The story is mesmerizing and gets you curious to know what really happened to the world and what's going to happen to the main characters. From page one you are captivated by the story of this Yojimbot a " Samourai Robot", I mean just this idea got me eager to read more, and a little boy called Hiro who is saved from death after his father is killed while trying to protect him. The Yojimbot decides then that this kid must be saved and protected.

I liked it and I'm happy that I discovered this story.

If you mix equal parts Wall-E, Logan, and Kill Bill you’d get Yojimbot. This was just the first part so it was short, but DANG if it didn’t pack a punch.

It’s a super quick read as many panels have no dialogue, but in these few pages there’s a decent amount of story and a bunch of action....and blood.

The art work has a distinct manga style and the coloring is vibrant, making the whole experience even more enjoyable.

A great little read and I look forward to future volumes.
