The Sacred Blacksmith

I know, the guy's cute :P

Yeah, this is The Sacred Blacksmith anime :) The red-headed girl you see in the picture is Cecily Campbell, daughter to a knight from some royal family *sorry, faulty memory :)* That aside, although she starts every battle with "I'm Cecily Campbell, a third generation knight from The Knights Guard of Housman, the Third City, of the Independent Trade Cities", she's only been a knight for three months following the death of her father.

However, when she was fighting her first real battle, the sword of Campbell broke and right before Cecily was about to be killed, the hot guy in the picture :P, Luke Ainsworth came to her rescue :) And when he battled the evil dude, his sword cut the evil dude's sword into half :) :)

SO COOL!!! :P

Anyways, after the battle was fought and won, Cecily had to get a new sword. When she found out Luke's sword was forged by himself with the help of his apprentice, Lisa, she pleaded for him to forge her an invincible sword.

Obviously, he was unwilling.

But Cecily was stubborn and a real klutz at heart, so she continued being persistent. When Luke finally decided to forge her a sword, he said he needed her to pay. Unfortunately, she couldn't give the whole sum to him, so he told her to forget it -_-

Haha.

Actually, the story starts with the Valbanill War which occured 44 years ago. During the war, one of the greatest weapons used were the Demon Contract, in which a person would sacrifice his soul to get dangerous powers.

The usual stuff :P

Yeah, so the world finally came to a decision where they would live in peace and independence, banning the Demon Contract.

However, it didn't last long. 44 years later, with Cecily on the force -_-, mysterious happenings related to the Demon Contracts have been recurring so it's up to her to get to the bottom of it... with Luke and Lisa.

Though, there's actually a secret revolving around Luka and Lisa and how Luke's past lover, Liza, died because of Valbanill. Cecily, being captivated by Luke, suddenly loses her curiosity of learning more about him when she found out Lisa and Liza were the same person :)

Of course, you're gonna have to figure it the rest out by yourself :) 

It's really quite interesting, and I hope there's second season, because the first season's ending is SO not satisfying :)
