Experience sensory overload with shoot-em-up master Cave’s Akai Katana. Set in a parallel world resembling Japan’s Taisho period, the people have discovered the powerful Blood Swords.

However, all the bloodshed and power gained through sacrificing close family members has made some of the swordsmen reconsider.
