World Break: Aria of Curse for a Holy Swordsman

*World Break: Aria of Curse for a Holy Swordsman* is set at Akane Private Academy, where teenagers who retain memories of past lives are trained in “Ancestral Arts” to protect humanity from sudden attacks by monsters known as Metaphysicals. These defenders, called Saviors, are divided into two paths: Kurogane, who channel prana to manifest weapons for close combat, and Kuroma, who wield magic.

On the first day of the school year, Moroha Haimura’s past comes rushing back in unexpected ways. He meets Satsuki Ranjou, who claims she was his younger sister in a previous life when he lived as a heroic prince famed for overwhelming swordsmanship. Soon after, Shizuno Urushibara approaches him with a very different connection—she remembers another lifetime in which Moroha was a dark lord of devastating magic who rescued her from slavery. Caught between two histories and the demands of the present, Moroha must navigate what it means to carry multiple lives while searching for a future of his own.
