| Summary: |
Alka is an assassin for the Clan of the Sword. She's on a journey to find the woman Jin Valel, who killed her master Hon. Jin is demon-like woman who controls the Energy of Chaos and kills without feeling - not unlike how Alka has learned to kill in her work as an assassin. On her journey, Alka encounters three strange women, each great warriors in their own right, and grapples with her slain master's wish that she leave the life of an assassin behind. |

The actual story and pacing of this anime are dreadful. The characters, particularly Alka, have no character which makes her just plain boring. This may form part of the overall story arc, but it makes for difficult watching and you (the viewer) don't form any close connection with ANYONE in the show.
The animations and drawings are quite good, but this anime focuses overall far too much on eye candy and not enough on narrative. I haven't even managed to finish it yet because it's such a drag.
