 If you liked Vagabond |  ...then you might like Azumi |
As much as I like strong female characters (who aren't overly sexualized!), I can't say that I like this series. I find Azumi to be rather flat especially when it comes to plot and characther depth. There's a whole lot of bloodshed and character death, but there is no real significance behind the killings because there is absolutely no character development. After a while you get numb to any and all death in this series and learn to not get attached to anyone besides the MC. If you're looking for something more profound, I highly recommend Vagabond. Like Azumi, the plot is set in feudal
Both are historical, both take place after the Battle of Sekigahara and at the same time both take place MAINLY at the same era, Edo era, which started 3 years only after that battle and both are about samurai and both protagonists are wanderers, both live by the sword and both are full of death.

Main characters are both skilled samurai. Mayor violence. Multiple perspectives of side characters.
