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. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

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.
