Summary
When her village is burned to the ground in a single night, Hoshino Sakura learns she is the last heir to a cursed blade passed down through her bloodline. The sword grants power — but with every strike, it demands a little more in return. Sakura must choose between her revenge and her humanity.
Theories & Comments4
The way Higan pulls Sakura toward the 'other shore' with every life it takes isn't just a plain curse, I think — the blade is slowly trying to replace her with itself. Kage might actually be a former heir, too.
Thanks for the comments! Hint: the number of blossoms on the hilt is no coincidence 🌸
The cherry-blossom motif recurs in every chapter; the author's pacing is excellent. The action scenes are crisp, too.
