Thanks.

Spoiler for Tsukiyono Tomoka:

His little sister is his sword? Was she his little sister that became a sacred sword or was she a sacred sword that became his little sister?

Spoiler for Kasumi Harness:

is it only me that think that we'll see a dual-wield here?

[nosaer]

Its got an interesting title, but where can I check this out? I didn't see it on baka-tsuki and a quick google search didn't do me any favors either

Spoiler for "About your questions:

Yeah, there will be a dual wield here. It's even in one of the illustrations.But it's not supposed to be possible.A wielder is only supposed to have one holy sword only.About the sister, she's apparently born as a sacred sword.

That's because it's still relatively new. You won't be able to check it out in English.

Well, sounds like something that would be in my interests (STnBD is one of my favorite series), but one quick question based on the illustrations:

Spoiler for One of the girls:

Is there just one silver-haired girl? Because it looks like we have one with two purple/dark-colored eyes, and another that has heterochromia. Or are they both the leader, just in different forms?

They are the same person.

BTW:I might try and re-read the first volume do a summary of it if I have time during the weekends.

[ReinZwei]

oh it's rare to see a thread with an overlap bunko imprint aside from InSt

Plot is kinda interesting

Seirei Tsukai aside....

ELEMENTAL GELADE?

And Skyrim too, but I didn't add that since this isn't a video game.As for Elemental Gelade, Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance is certainly influenced by Elemental Gelade in some ways.

Spoiler for Vol 1 Prologue Summary:

On Christmas Eve, all the television channels in the world gets hijacked and were forced to broadcast the speech of a silver-haired girl who has the beauty and elegance of a country’s princess.The girl introduces herself as Ahrian D Hakua,otherwise known as Ahri or the ‘Demonic Dragon Princess’—the leader of the ‘Six Imperial Demonic Dragons’.Ahri reveals that while all Demonic Dragons are given birth by human mothers and look almost indistinguishable to normal humans, they are mostly despised by their parents as a result of their power--causing misery in the childhood of those known as Demonic Dragons.She then declares that as ‘Demonic Dragons’, their role in the world is to spread terror over it. In front of live television, a city from an unknown country gets destroyed. In front of television cameras, three dragons emerged..Immune to all kinds of ammunition,Ahri reveals that despite attacks by several European countries, the armies of those nations has failed to lay a single dent upon any of them.She then reveals that only weapons known as Holy Swords can defeat Demonic Dragons. While it is true that Holy Swords have long fought Demonic Dragons, they have only done so in the ‘shadows’. Ahri now wants these battles to be fought in the ‘open’.She then reveals she will first travel and fight in the Japanese city of 美影開發都市 -- since it was already known to her that several Demonic Dragons(not part of her organization) and Holy Swords already resides in that city—expressing the wish to fight them and further spread terror.Immediately after making her declaration,the scenery behind Ahri switches to that of another location---美影開發都市.

Nice, thanks.

[Ophis]

So Moe-chan, do you plan on continuing the summaries or give us some more spoilers about the novels? This really picked my interest

The thread kind of died. Which is really sad, considering how interesting this LN seems to be.

[sirius00]

this really is awesome.
I cannot wait to read more
I hope somebody write some more summaries

[GenesiD]

So they plan on spreading terror and what not without killing anyone? Sounds a bit tame but I'm not complaining. Sounds like an interesting novel. Who's in the harem? 10 bucks its a brocon imouto.

[DragonKing0117]

Just realized but, isn't this the same illustrator from Knights and Magic? No wonder the Dragon girl looks like an adilt, actual female version of Eru.

[ngng]

^Yup, same illustrator.
