I love the fact that Katanagatari makes you keep thinking about it in retrospect waaaaaaay after you've watched it. I watched this show two years ago and I still think about it.
Once there was a swordsmith who asked himself, what makes the perfect warrior. Must his sword be tough, as such it will never dull or break? And thus he created Zettō Kanna, the hardest blade ever created. Must his sword be sharp, as such it will cut through anything? And thus he created Zantō Namakura, the sharpest blade ever created. Must the warrior be able to outnumber his opponent, as such the opponent would be overwhelmed? And thus he created Sentō Tsurugi, the most numerable blade ever created. Must the warrior be skilled, as such he could win with even the weakest sword? And thus he created Hakutō Hari, the most fragile blade ever created. Must the warrior be untouchable, as such the warrior could never be harmed? And thus he created Zokutō Yoroi, the most protecting blade ever created. Must his sword be heavy, as such the impact alone could break bones? And thus he created Sōtō Kanazuchi, the heaviest blade ever created. Must the warrior be undying, as such he would never fall in battle? And thus he created Akutō Bita, the most undying blade ever created. Must the warrior be removed, as such the sword can act without the warrior's weaknesses? And thus he created Bitō Kanzashi, the most autonomous blade ever created. Must the warrior be at peace, as such the warrior has no need to fight? And thus he created Ōtō Nokogiri, the most calming blade ever created. Must his sword be removed, as such the warrior should defeat its opponent with words only? And thus he created Seitō Hakari, the most absent blade ever created. Must the warrior be experienced, as such the warrior could apply his learnings from previous battles? And thus he created Dokutō Mekki, the most memorizing blade ever created. Must his sword be ranged, as such the opponent could never come close to the warrior? And thus he created Entō Jū, the most distant blade ever created. Must the sword be the warrior, as such the blade and the person are inseparable? And thus he created Kyotō Yasuri, the most human blade ever created.
There's a reason they didn't show that fight. In case you haven't noticed, each of Shichikas opponents have a distinct fighting style, making for an interesting fight when he has to outsmart them and adapt to each fighting style. But from what we saw of Sabi's fighting style, he's just a plain old swordsman. It'd be pretty boring to be honest.
Ness Lucas Boring? Have you seen the preview of this battle? they also said in the next episode he has a lot of special techniques like chaning his sword shape and stuff. I wouldnt call him a plain swordsman.

I'm french, and it's not very very popular, but Katanagatari is one of my favorite anime, the first is Berserk, I agree what Riraito said, draws are beautiful, the ost is awesome, how can someone dislike this anime ?!
@@bradley8258 that's good though. It is a serious compliment to the writer, if he moves you so much with his story. I hope to be able to write stories like that some day
@@JC-ph3ku The author is Nisioisin, same guy who wrote the famous Monogatari series and the JoJo spin off called Over Heaven. He writes suvh intricate stories in fact that he is regarded by many as the modern Shakespeare
This anime is brilliant, which cannot be denied no matter how frustratingly depressing it gets. Even if we wanted a happy ending, Togame did reap what she sowed. Nevertheless, I feel that, even if she had survived, she would not have killed Shichika like she schemed. She did love him, so her love could have eventually overcome her grudges.
katanagatari had an excellent ending. the whole story led to that point and it's execution was pretty good. Deal with it that not every story ends with everyone being happy
I had to say I loved how original the story and art was even though you could sorta tell what was going to happen towards the end. The truth was that Ichika himself was the last and most powerful "sword" created by the swordsmith.

hallonet654 In my opinion Samurai Champloo is awesome. Its got great characters that are perfectly set up and episodes that just keep you wanting more.
I live in the Netherlands. Here we don't have anime (maybe Pokémon..). Even Naruto and Bleach are not well known here. But I have watched over a hundred anime, including Katanagatari. I like it, it's different. But because of the drawing style and length of the episodes, I think it's not something everyone would like.
this anime kinda broke me a bit.. those words that togame said before she died really made me cry. im still kinda p!ss about how they didnt end up together
I'm from Germany and I have to admit that anime here is really popular. There are many different conventions (anicon, cosday, ...) just to name two of them. Here you find a giant fanbase of Bleach Naruto Fairy Tale One Piece Neo Genesis Evangelion and many more

If you dislike Katanagatari, that's fine.
However by that point you'll be torn to pieces.
Sounds like a challenge ! I like it... a lot !
Watch out... I'll finish you with an extremely flashy move!
Cheerio!
What a hassle...
I have fallen for you.
I love how Taku Iwasaki was able to carry over the general feeling of ROW ROW FIGHT THE POWER in this theme.
Same!! he's my favorite composer of all time
He also Made the Jojo Soundtrack From Part 1 and 2
That means He is the AWAKEN MY MASTERS guy
@@kaso236 just part 2, not part 1
I'd suggest running to whoever hears this theme. However, by that point you'll have been torn to pieces.
NotTheWheel nice
SMOOTH AS HELL, BRO.
seeing this image of togame and shichika together holding hands makes my heart hurt so much
i feel you
i feel you x2
I was barely holding my tears back, ngl
Sed but good ending
At least a man fell for her, and she fell for him.
2010年のア二メの時は日本国内ですら知名度低かったのに、いつの間に外国人に人気になったんだーーーー！！！
ちぇりおー！
グレンラガンのＢＧⅯと 柱の男かな
One of the best animes out there. It looks like an Anime for kids but its definitley for adults and the story is on high lvl
the story isn't so mature(so much that is ) but rather decision shichika makes (to kill or not to kill )
indeed it was a more mature story. far more realistic in sense of cruelty. An insight to real life.
the feels per pixel is at a higher ratio in this show than any other
すっごい和風のアニメなのに盛り上がるシーンで英語？のラップみたいなの流れるの本来なら違和感すごいはずなのに凄い合うんだよなこれすごい好き

toufu Yuichi 薄刀があわや七花に食い込むかと思わせたあのシーンは史上に残る屈指の名シーンだったな
どう頑張っても折れる刀をなんとかものにしようと、とがめが出した策も見事なもんだった

lol k i give mad props to whoever wrote this story. how did he make me care so much ?
I finished it last year too, ay.

DevilButt same
the guy that's singing this HAS to be the same guy who sings "Noratan" from noragami… but i think i like this song better! :)
it's the same composer i think ;D
+MaiCohWolf Lotus juice he's done a quite a few animes
+Dieter Gaudlitz yeah because he did some of the tracks in that too
+Simona Nachname yeah both songs are from Taku Iwasaki :3
+MaiCohWolf Ehh I beg to differ... Since that both are certified "goosebumps" (by me) XD
still best ost in all anime, and best anime ever
Only a song like this can complement a series that takes delight in making a silly word like "Cheerio!" a War Cry.
And what a glorious war cry it is.
True
I love this ost, and I love the character design of this anime, is so unique in a good way
Good ol days. This series felt like a dream now that its been so long
4 Years since I finished it, and it still hurts lol...
Amazing anime. Such a shame it doesn't get the recognition it deserves, but that's fine.
This anime is brilliant, which cannot be denied no matter how frustratingly depressing it gets. Even if we wanted a happy ending, Togame did reap what she sowed. Nevertheless, I feel that, even if she had survived, she would not have killed Shichika like she schemed. She did love him, so her love could have eventually overcome her grudges.
Brought tears to my eyes
Just started watching this anime, already love this song!
It starts slow, but finishes really strongly.
It does. I finished it, and it's now a favorite of mine.
some people say it is bad ( the ending ) but i personally liked it ,A LOT !
I thought the ending was the best part. Which is saying something.
HSMediaNerd yep but kinda bummed he didn't murder the princess :p
After watching the entire series, that is one of the better endings I've seen in a while with any anime. Just epic on all levels.
私の耳から離れない＝いい曲です
A truly tragic but beautiful and action packed show. One of my personal favorites.
What an epic anime. Definitely the best of 2010. Others tries but by the end they had been torn to pieces by this masterpiece.
大好きだ！とがめと七花のコンビは最高！
This was extremely epic.
When I heard this , I just knew : SHIT JUST GOT SERIOUS
When you hear this music, you KNOW someone's about to get torn to pieces.
I'm pretty sure that's Lotus Juice rapping. This guy is amazing.
That it is.
This anime will always have a special place in my heart, forever

i just found katanagatari yesterday.... damn im already in love with this anime
เป็นเพลดี ฟังเเล้วได้ feel ที่ดีสุดๆไปเลย ^ ^
I'm from Belgium, and I agree completely with you. One of my all-time favorites
The singer's name is Yutaka Fukuoka if anybody wanted to know. : )
Same composer than Jormungandr. Love it both soundtracks!!!!!
I wasn't expecting much, but I am glad I started watching this anime haha! Cool songs too!
Finished this anime a couple of days ago. Really amazing. That ending.
dat Crazy bitch
U know someone's about to get fucked up when this comes on
Great Ost 4 a Great Anime, love it!
katanagatari had an excellent ending. the whole story led to that point and it's execution was pretty good. Deal with it that not every story ends with everyone being happy
The ending made the series for me.
This anime was god tier and should have a second season I need more of that killer move
I had to say I loved how original the story and art was even though you could sorta tell what was going to happen towards the end. The truth was that Ichika himself was the last and most powerful "sword" created by the swordsmith.
the guy rapping on this sounds like the guy who raps in psychedelic souljam from soul eater
Yeah Lotus Juice, that's his name, it seems like he's usually in some songs Taku Iwasaki does
When this song starts you know someone is gonna get rekd in the next few moments
I love the English lyrics!! 💕
God damn this is my jam. Katanagatari really had an awesome soundtrack!
8 years later we still Cheerio!
Togame... :'(
Cherioooooo !
Maniwani corps disliked it 13 of them + 7 dead owners of deviant blades, Rest in peace haters~
i loved this anime, it had this art style to it that was just so different, made it unique.
I was just thinking yesterday as I was watching the anime, "I need to find the soundtrack for this thing." Thank you so much for uploading this!

This ost reminds me of Samurai Champloo
Why would an amazing OST remind you of an at best mediocre anime?
hallonet654 In my opinion Samurai Champloo is awesome. Its got great characters that are perfectly set up and episodes that just keep you wanting more.
ReadingsteinerZ Its First and Final episodes were great, but it lacked quite a lot in the middle part.
katanagatari had some great tracks, but few can hold a candle to the genius that was nujabes.
これぞ、ブシドー！
うむ、とても良い曲だ（語彙力不要）
I just finished the last episode of this anime, and despite knowing that it will have a sad ending I still liked it. definitely of the best animes
its like a mix of new wave techno, native american chant with a japanese note to it. Amazing.
Man, on episode 6 and decided to come check out this soundtrack. See a bunch of comments saying the ending is sad.
Oh naw...
グレンラガン、刀語、ヨルムンガンド、ジョジョ、ガッチャマンクラウズの作曲家が同じと聴いて
鼻血が出た
最近アニソンよりサントラのほうが遥かに先へ行ってる
年季が違うからね、アニソン歌手でも長い人は良い曲もあるけどポッと出の歌手が歴戦の作曲家に勝てるわけも無い
Ive watched a ton of anime as well and Katanagatari is 1 of them that easily goes in the top 10 list.
The music for this anime is fabulous. :)
KATANAGATARI THE MASTERPIECE ♥️
I haven't seen this series, yet, but loving this song.
I live in the Netherlands. Here we don't have anime (maybe Pokémon..). Even Naruto and Bleach are not well known here. But I have watched over a hundred anime, including Katanagatari.

Ohh hell yeah totally rmemebrs me of every sword fight 😍😍😍
Chills always ran down my spine when this started playing in the show. o.o
Nine years to late I am
この曲をバックに次々と変体刀を破壊していく七花の無双っぷりがカッコ良いのと同時に、あの純粋で明るい七花から出てるとは思えない悲しく沈んだしゃべり口調がいいんだよね〜
i always thought Bakemonogatari and Katanagatari were both Extremely Epic Masterpieces, and then i find out they had the same creator..EPIC!!
ABSOLUTELY GREAT SONG!!!!
Just finished EP12. Too good. This shit was simply too awesome to describe. One of the best anime shows I've ever seen.
Shichika: 🎶 (dancing and singing with his theme)🎶
Martin: uh cuz bro what are you doing
Demo told us the ending was amazing. He wasnt kidding
this anime kinda broke me a bit.. those words that togame said before she died really made me cry. im still kinda p!ss about how they didnt end up together
I've never heard of this but I heard this song somewhere, this shit bangs!
When I listen to this, the thing that comes to mind is that ninja getting wrecked by the flashy combo attack. XD
however by that point you'll be torn to pieces
Thanks, so much for subscribing to my channel.
Is that Lotus Juice in this track? If so... Awesome! I like his work.
It definitely is, and I didn't even notice it at first.
The OST is just so memorable!

CHEERIO good stuff, love this anime.
Preparing exams was never as epic as when you listen to this.
The fact like, 90% of the lyrics in this song are just made up, not even proper language...is phenomenal. One of the best things ever X)
the title literally means fake language
This reminds me of Noratan from Norigami.
Sakuragi Ryuu 桜木竜 Taku Iwasaki composed both pieces. A lot of his music sounds similar.
mahn u gotta upload more of these im a big fan of the series!!!!!!!!
couldn't agree more. really dug this one out of the pile of anime I had to watch.
The moment when this BGM start
here comes action!
rip koumori i will always love you
Very fitting music ;D Like always :DD
