Basilisk

If you liked stuff like the Ninja Scroll Series or Samurai X I'm pretty sure you'll digg this. I'm on the 4th volume and am quite impressed. The artwork is so sleek, kind of dark.
So far the story takes place over only a couple days. At the heart of it is a 'star-crossed' lovers type of tale only that these 'lovers' happen to each be head guys in opposing ninja clans that have been fated to take each other out. Betrayal, love, badass fight scenes, gory, sexy, the tension just keeps getting higher/better.
As for the voices, I'm watching it in Japanese. I didn't even really give the English a chance but once. During one scene I put the English on with the English subtitles and it was COMPLETELY different and not in a good way, but that's purely a personal opinion.
