Summary: The story begins in 1629 Shizuoka during Tokugawa Tadanaga's rule. The daimyo staged a tournament where the participants fought with real steel Japanese swords rather than bokken ("wooden sword"), against his vassals' strong objection. The story revolves around the first match between the one-armed swordsman Fujiki Gennosuke and the blind samurai Irako Seigen and deals with the circumstances that led the two to participate in Tokugawa's tournament.

I must say, this anime was very psychological. It's very much about how savage humans can be. I really got hooked into the characters and the story, even though some parts were a bit..questionable and creepy haha. I'm not sure if I like the ending because in the end it doesn't show what happens in the first duel between the two main characters. The storytelling was a bit confusing at first. It tends to jump between the past and present so you have to be attentive.

Are episodes 8 and 9 going to get uploaded soon? Didn't want to sign up with Crunchyroll just so I can keep up with the story.
