Katana Maidens: Toji No Miko

Katana Maidens: Toji No Miko is a Japanese anime television series about Toji, sword-wielding shrine maidens who attend school while training to exorcise hostile creatures called aradama, and who serve the government as a police unit allowed to carry swords. The anime was produced by Genco, co-produced by Crunchyroll and animated by Studio Gokumi, and it was built from an original screenplay rather than adapted from an existing story. It grew into a wider franchise that includes a Kadokawa manga serialized in Monthly Shonen Ace, a Square Enix smartphone visual novel and game released in 2018, a short spin-off series called Mini Toji, a light novel and later original video animation releases. The anime itself aired in Japan on several networks, with simulcast licensing arranged through Crunchyroll.
