Adventure. Gunslingers. Outlaws. Shoot-outs. War.

But after a letter arrives from the President addressed to her no-good and nowhere to be found father, fate conspires to give her exactly what she wished for—wrapped up in a journey that will take her farther from home than she ever expected. Unfortunately, Jo is about to learn that a life of adventure may not be all it's cracked up to be...

About 773 ("Nanami") - (http://atelier773.dojin.com/)
Dead End Junction was written and directed by Hidume, the sole member of 773, creator of the acclaimed Cherry Tree High series and fan of old Westerns like The Magnificent Seven and The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. Their usual sharp sense of humor is on full display here, though they do an excellent job proving they can write a serious story with this title as well.
