Who doesn't like a good show that revolves around demons? Demon Swords? We've got it! Demon Contracts? You bet! Big Demon dude that is the main enemy? Of course! Demon Swords that turn into girls? Hell yeah! Demon baddies? Plenty.
You get the main jist of the show yet?
[Story] [8]
Roughly 44 years prior to the starting point of this anime a great war took place known as the Valbanill War... conveniently named after the instigator of the whole ordeal, the demon Valbanill. Fast forward
...
half a century and you'll find Cecily Campbell. Don't know her? Well you will because she will feel obligated to tell you who she before every fight. After Cecily breaks her family sword she heads off to find the Blacksmith, Luke Ainsworth. From that point on is where the main story attempts to kick off. If the story line lacks anything, its a main focal point... or a goal. There is one of course but some events may throw you off to what it really is.... to defeat Valbanill. The demon Valbanill is sealed within a mountain right next door to the city of Housman and the seal is on the brink of destruction, as is the entire country. He must be either resealed or defeated with a Sacred Sword from the forge of the Sacred Blacksmith... a.k.a. Luke Ainsworth.
[Characters]
Cecily Campbell: She is a Knight of Housman, which she proudly announces before her battles. Though quite dense at times, she is fiercely loyal to her friends and country and never backs down from a fight. She also has a thing for Luke.
Luke Ainsworth: A cold young man with a past he can't let go. He is the Sacred Blacksmith... or is to be anyway. Though he displays a cold personality he does truly care about those important to him. He forges katana's with his assistant Lisa.
Arya: Arya is a demon sword of wind that can manifest herself in human form. She becomes a very close friend to Cecily. She was created during the Valbanill War.
Lisa: Lisa is a young girl that lives with Luke and assists him in the forge among other things. She is with Luke wherever he goes. She bears the same name and face as the friend of Luke that died 3 years prior.
[Overall] [8]
This is an anime that provides enjoyment on many fronts. It has its weak points but they are overshadowed by the pro's of the show. In any case, it'll keep you wanting to click on [Next Episode].
