Katana Maidens Mini Toji, anime tv series 2019

Story:

In the television anime’s story, since ancient times, shrine maidens who wield swords have been exorcising “aratama,” strange existences that threaten the human world. These young women who wear school uniforms and a sword are called “Toji,” and they serve as an official unit within the police force as a “special religious service police squad.” The government authorizes the Toji to wear swords and serve as government officials, and the government has set up five schools throughout the country for the girls to attend.

The girls live ordinary school lives, while occasionally performing their duties, wielding their swords and using various powers to fight and protect the people. In the spring, the five schools send their best Toji to compete in a tournament. As the tournament comes closer, all of the representatives rigorously train themselves in order to get stronger and improve their skills.

Since the ancient times, the Kannagi priestesses have used their swords, or Okatana to exorcise the creatures known as Aratama that brought chaos upon the world. These maidens were known as “Tojis”, a special task force within the police allowed to have their swords on their person but they mostly consist of schoolgirls who go to training schools. They usually live an ordinary campus life but once on a mission, they will hold the Okatana and fight!
