Ushio and Tora
うしおととら , Ushio & Tora
Ushio thinks his father's story about an ancestor pinning a demon to a temple altar stone with the legendary Beast Spear is ridiculous, but when he finds the monster in his own basement, he has to reconsider the family legend. Luckily, Ushio knows better than to disturb a sleeping dog and leaves captured demons where they are. Unluckily, the release of the monster's evil energy starts drawing other demons to Ushio's hometown. To save his friends and family from the invading spirits, Ushio is forced to set Tora free. But will the cure turn out worse than the curse? Will Ushio end up a snack for Tora? Or will the Beast Spear keep Tora in check long enough to save the city?
