Synopsis
When the gods would not answer in humanity's desperate hour of need, it turned to a demon instead. The supposed savior came wielding the sword Zsoltgewinn, but its uncontrollable lust for blood led it to kill those who summoned it too. Although the sword was sealed away long ago, it has been uncovered by the Shoshidai, an organization that collects such cursed artifacts. However, Zsoltgewinn proves to be too strong to be tamed by humans when its corruptive power influences the administrator, Takuma Miura, to flee with it in his grasp. At the same time, Gai Ogata's family is torn apart due to the possession of another demonic sword, Shiryu, leading his father to be murdered and his mother to hang herself shortly after giving birth to him. Abandoned in the forest clutching the blade, he is discovered by the blacksmith Amon. Unnaturally transfixed by the sword, Gai works tirelessly for years to hone his smithing skills. However, when an accident costs him his arm, he gains a new one—in the form of a reforged Shiryu. Now having a cursed sword for an arm, Gai must learn to control its violent urges. All the while, Zsoltgewinn continues its rampage, leaving a path of blood in its wake.

Pretty disappointed with the ending. The side characters had great development whilst we didn't see much progress for Gai, mentally and physically speaking. This anime had an awesome concept, I wish they would have handled the writing for the swords in a better way.
Not much progress is being made in the story, this episode was quite slow. This anime started out really interesting but I'm losing interest slowly. At least the animation is cool.
This episode is seemingly moving towards character development for Gai, but we haven't seen him progress since receiving the arm. I want to see more action.
Initially felt like another side story, but the ending was really sad. I actually didn't like the ending, it was so sad given the character build up. We really see the ruthlessness of the Shoshidai.
Definitely a weird episode, we see some new characters, but I'm not sure what relevance they had to the main story. Still a fun episode though.
Such an emotional episode. I love the beautiful story we got to see. It really added great depth to the series and gave us a glance into the sacrifices that are made.
I absolutely loved the backstory we got this episode. Great emotional impact and storytelling. I hope we see more lore like this.
Finally some new characters! I thought we wouldn't see anyone new. I absolutely love the character designs. Great action sequences.
I like that we see more action in this episode. Cool character design and improved pacing.
I really like the concept of the sword being reinvented. Once again, amazing animation. I hope to see more world building.
I love a good time skip. Animation is beautiful again. Definitely an emotionally charged episode.
Super cool first episode. Great concept and animation. I can't wait to see what's next for this series. I love a story with some good lore.
not sure what to say about this episode. the figh sequences were awesome, but put in mind this is the frist time we saw so much of the main character, at the last episode... the dropped the ball because on the frist episodes i saw a lot of potential
90% of this episode is filler, 100% skipeable
Ok this was a filler cap, some background of Ichijo but nothing else to add.
At first it felt like a filler chapter, but it got really intense and good, the figth sequences were also good, but at the same time it makes you think they are not caring for those detail that give deepness and continuity to the story.
Wtf was this!!!? i mean, it was really good and interesting but it was so surreal, i´m not sure what just happened, because a lot of things were happening! I think the las episodes of the season will be pure madness
was beautiful! The devotion and love Kei had towards Ichijo is something you can´t just describe with words
it is good to finally get some background story, the dragon -man story was so deep! I find so funny how they let a lot of knots in the air without a resolution a just continue as nothing happened lol.
The episode was good, the figth sequences were good, but i feel they keep running in circles. They are like 2 parallel stories that never met each other.
