9 itemsAbout the Game
This is a side-scrolling shoot 'em up game in which players fight by using both the close-range "sword" to slash enemies and shatter bullet barrages, and the far-reaching "shooting" style.
Players can learn techniques with various effects during the stage and can take on the mighty bosses in the style of their choice.
Attack the enemy
Eliminate some bullets
Parry and nullify enemy melee attacks
and other actions are possible.
With the sword, power is accumulated and special techniques such as "Iai" and "Ougi" can be unleashed.
There are also challenging elements, such as reinforcement only during the stage with spiritual power obtained by defeating enemies, or permanent reinforcement with coins obtained by defeating bosses.
Two divine swords, Kuroyuri and Shiroyuri, were dedicated deep in the mountains of Kyoto.
Their powerful power was only there to keep the demons and evil spirits from doing evil.
One day, a large thunderbolt destroyed the shrine and the sheath where the sword was located.
When left unarmed, the sword's power waned and it could not glare at the enemy.
They took the form of a person on one side and a sword on the other, and when fighting the enemy, they kept the sword inside their bodies.
Their journey to defeat the monsters and demons that abound in the world and to obtain a new sheath begins.
Players can learn techniques with various effects during the stage and can take on the mighty bosses in the style of their choice.
