Both series are very faithful recreations of life in feudal Japan . Characters with great depth, masterfully written episodic tales with historical accuracy, ideals and honor in feudal Japan are just some of the common aspects of the series. If you have finished reading one of the series and are looking for something simmilar , this is the perfect manga to start.

Samurai Executioner is an episodic prequel to Lone Wolf & Cub that follows Yamada Asaemon, a very minor character who confronts Ogami Itto on the Shogun's orders. Samurai Executioner has the same writing art style as Lone Wolf & Cub, and has a very similar tone.
If you're a fan of Lone Wolf & Cub it's worthwhile to also read Samurai Executioner. There isn't the same kind of story arc, but as a companion piece it's phenomenal.
