J's Chimes: It's About The Eyes

By Djenar Siti

A new anime debuts just this month with a seemingly interesting design of the character's eyes. Katanagatari or translated as the Story of the Swords, is a 50 minutes long anime which tells the story of a girl strategist in search of a man who can help her gather 12 unique swords rumored to be the most powerful in the world. After hearing that there's a swordless warrior who could fight against all odds, she went in search of him in an unhabited island for help. The story is kinda draggy and... what's with the eyes? I guess simple is nice in a way. More details here.
