I know we've talked about this show before, but now it's coming up soon, so perhaps some of the info bears repeating.Title: Seiken no BlacksmithJP Title: 聖剣の刀鍛冶Title Translation: The Sacred BlacksmithStudio: ManglobeGenre: FantasyAirs: October 2009, TBA <object width="500" height="405"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/iVql97Rxi2I&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x402061&color2=0x9461ca&border=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed wmode="transparent" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/iVql97Rxi2I&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x402061&color2=0x9461ca&border=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="500" height="405"></embed></param><param value="transparent" name="wmode"></param></object> Cecily Cambell is a would-be knight with a remarkable old sword from her father which she hopes to get repaired-- but first she has to find the right blacksmith. One day she bumps into a man with a strange taboo power and an oddly-shaped sword. His name is Luke Aunsworth, and the two unite for a what will probably be a rollicking adventure. Eventually the two are joined by Luke's live-in helpmate, the loli Lisa, and the mysterious bodyguard Aria. <object width="500" height="405"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/iVql97Rxi2I&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x402061&color2=0x9461ca&border=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed wmode="transparent" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/iVql97Rxi2I&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x402061&color2=0x9461ca&border=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="500" height="405"></embed></param><param value="transparent" name="wmode"></param></object> It's been a while since we've had a sort of traditional fantasy adventure other than Slayers-- perhaps because it's been so long since Zero no Tsukaima aired anything on TV? --but it looks like a solidly-animated show and I'm hoping it's a lot of fun. Be sure to watch the trailers!
