| Gory, twisted, kinky, and downright weird little swordplay story here. The show has many high points, some of them are showing the interior of the body and its reaction to the blows struck, and a very engaging story. Except (spoiler warning) for the fact that nothing is resolved. It is both a spoiler and a warning because you are going to follow the two main characters through this gore-streaked tale and expect to see them finally have at it, but it just ends.
This series is part of a multi-volume manga series that I have only read some of, and what I have read doesn't even resolve the story. It is a really decent, exceptionally dark and violent anime, but it will let you down if you are expecting the story to actually finish at the end of the 12th episode. I assume that means there will be a second season, but it still doesn't get it off the hook for leaving the audience hanging in such an abrupt fashion. |
