Time Out says

Anyone who turns up at this exhibition expecting pretty land-and-seascapes is in for a shock. Kuniyoshi may have been a contemporary of Hokusai and Hiroshige's but his exciting, kinetic pictures of murderous warriors and sinister phantasms have more in common with their direct descendant, manga, than with the languorous images of his peers.
