Shradow Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 [img]http://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/anime/9/15123.jpg[/img] [i]Katanagatari, [/i]meaning Sword Story, began airing in January of 2010, consisting of 12, hour long episodes with 1 episode released each month over the year. [i]Katanagatari[/i] is the story of Yasuri Shichika, a swordsman that fights without a sword, and Togame, an ambitious strategist that seeks to collect twelve legendary swords for the shogunate. The son of an exiled war hero, Yasuri Shichika is the seventh head of the Kyotōryū school of fighting and lives on isolated Fushou Island with his sister. At a request from the female general Togame, Shichika and Togame set out on a journey across Edo-era Japan to collect the twelve Deviant Blades. Shichika uses the Kyotōryū style of fighting, a sword style where his body takes place of actual swords. He and his family have historically been incapable of using actual swords, and should he try to use one, it slips from his hands like a bar of soap before whacking him on the head for comic effect. I can't seem to find the videos, but Schichika's final battle against the 12 deviant blade owners is one of the most badass things I've ever seen. Discuss.

Astro Dude Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 Try Subbinz. And if you ask me Togame should've lived. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
