Sword Gai: The Animation

Not all swords are created equal. Some have become so soaked in dark intent they develop wills of their own, wills that can overwhelm and supplant those of their wielder to become Busoma. Gai Ogata was born holding such a sword, and after an accident results in the loss of his arm that same sword is fashioned into a prosthetic limb… a limb which grants great power at the cost of forcing him into perpetual combat against the Busoma.

An action-drama with a small philosophical streak which eventually adopts a few battle shounen aspects.
