Plots(1)
Shy, timid Himeko happily attends school with both the popular and beautiful Chikane and her childhood friend, Souma, blissfully unaware of what's in store for her. However, the destiny of these three changes on Himeko's 16th birthday when the mark of the sun appears on her chest. What does this solar mark represent? At the same time, why has a black aura of agony burst forth from Souma? Who is the enemy? The legend of the eight-headed beast returns to Japan! (official distributor synopsis)

A slightly treacherous anime that didn't grow on me, which can be attributed to the overly dramatic dialogue, the relative repetitiveness, and above all, the whiny and unbearable Himeko. Whether in her relationship with Souma or the dreamy Chikane, she always finds a reason for tragedy or self-pity, which gets tiresome very quickly, and if it wasn't for a few clever plot twists, she would be a reason to completely reject Destiny of the Shrine Maiden. And yet the other two main characters, the ambiguous beauty and the distinctive warrior – and ultimately the multifaceted Orochi – are the reason why you shouldn't give up watching, but hold out for the impressive finale. Like any anime ending, it brings forth sincere emotions, and despite the many reservations, it was all worth it thanks to the final reveal.
