Katana Maidens: Toji no Miko - S01

Since ancient times, shrine maidens who wield swords have been exorcising "aratama," strange beings that threaten the human world. These young women, who wear school uniforms and carry a sword, are called "Toji," and they serve as an official unit within the police force known as the "special religious service police squad." The government authorizes the Toji to wear swords and work as government officials, and it has established five schools across the country for the girls to attend. In the spring, the five schools send their best Toji to compete in a tournament. As the tournament draws near, all the representatives train rigorously to grow stronger and sharpen their skills.
