Synopsis

Cecily's a blushing knight in shining armor. Unfortunately, it seems most battles end with her as the damsel in distress. Her lack of skill and distaste for violence make her an unlikely heroine - until the brooding blacksmith Luke comes to her aid, using his powerful magic to forge blades of supernatural strength. Cecily wields this sacred steel and charges forth to face a dangerous new threat. A cloaked fiend is unleashing demons upon the land, and though he lurks in shadows, the villain is much closer than Cecily can imagine.

Julia Arsenault (ja_kitty_71) Here is another fantasy anime series I found awesome! and I'm always on the look-out for new anime to watch.The series' story is about a young rookie knight name Cecily Cambell, who had her family's sword broken while trying to protect villagers from a seemingly insane veteran swordsman. Fortunately, she is saved by a somewhat cold blacksmith name Luke. Later Cecily comes to Luke's cottage to ask him to reforged her sword, but his answer was "no!" Suddenly, bandits that are possessed by demons attack merchants and the knights Cecily serve who were protecting them. But her attempt to fight the bandits end in failure. Of course, Luke and his helper Lisa arrive on the scene, and magically forge a blade to stop the remaining demon-bandit. After the disaster is over, Cecily and Luke agree about forging a new sword for her. But now, Cecily is an important task: to protect a sword that can take on a human shape called Aria.I love little Lisa, I thought she's adorable. So as I said this series is an awesome fantasy series with superb animation and not to mention an adorable ending theme song. Overall, I really love this show.
Tweekums This fun series is centred on Cecily Campbell a young night living in a free trade city. At the start of the series she is very determined but also somewhat lacking in ability, her sword is broken in a fight and she is rescued by Luke Ainsworth who is both a skilled swordsman and a master blacksmith. She wants him to make a new sword for him but she can't afford the price, luckily she soon come into possession of a new sword, it isn't a usual sword though. It is a demon sword which has two unusual traits; it has magical properties and can take human form, its human form, Aria, becomes a close friend of Cecily's. Over the course of the series the three of them have several battles, frequently against other people armed with demon swords. As the series concludes some surprising truths are revealed and dangers confronted which left a somewhat open ending conclusion. I've tried to keep the plot description as basic as possible so as not to spoil it for anybody who has yet to see it.At first I wasn't sure what to make of this series which is populated fairly cute characters which made me think it was probably aimed at a young audience. However the story seemed fun and the characters were likable so I stuck with it. I'm not sure why it has a TV-MA rating on Funimation's YouTube channel as there in nothing in it that would be unsuitable to teenagers; there is some violence but nothing too gory and sexual content is limited to a few comments about the comparatively large size of Cecily's breasts, there is a small amount of nudity but I don't recall seeing anything inappropriate for the younger viewer. The ending did seem a little too open ended, I hope that was just to leave things open for a second series.These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.
