This story teakes place in the Edo era where Yasuri Shichika is the seventh head of the Kyotou school of Japanese sword martial arts living in Fushou Island with his sister Nanami. With the order from a female samurai general Togame, he sets out for a trip to collect the twelve treasured swords created by a legendary swordsmith Shikizaki Kiki.
I have to start by saying that in the end I was a happy camper.
This story was good...a bit jumpy at parts, but overall pretty straightforward, however kind of foreseeable in most parts.
The Dialogue was so so, but fed the story along fairly well, and even offered just the right amount of most aspects I was looking for.
The Animation was good, but a few episodes surprised me in the fact that I didn't see what I wanted to see, or it was a skewed presentation, making me rate it at average.
The Entertainment value was high and could have received higher marks if not for the animation lacking in a few episodes and slightly peeving me. One fight in-particular, I wanted to see and it was not there, watch and you'll understand. This rates it as good...on its way to better, but falling just short.
I applaud the makers, and recommend this series as a mu...should see.
