OVA
Description
Minawa Narutaki, a blind priest, stands among the reincarnated warriors destined to confront demonic forces endangering Tokyo. His lack of sight never impairs his awareness; he wields heightened auditory perception to detect approaching demons, sensing their presence before an attack. Initially, he fulfills a monitoring role, confirming signs of demonic resurgence for fellow warriors like Kyoshiro Kagami. Yet he grapples with accepting his ordained path as one of the ten warriors, his internal conflict manifesting as outright refusal.
As events progress, disillusionment takes root within him, particularly toward human nature. Witnessing escalating human selfishness over time, he questions the very purpose of the warriors' eternal battle against the Kyouma. This culminates in his abandonment of duty: he physically deserts his post, leaving behind a note declaring humanity’s failure to evolve beyond inherent flaws. His resignation stems from the conviction that human moral failings render the conflict meaningless. Henceforth, he embraces neutrality, indifferent to whether humans or demons dominate the world. His departure signals a definitive rejection of his predetermined fate.
His trajectory arcs from reluctant participant to philosophical dissenter, prioritizing his judgment of humanity’s unworthiness over supernatural obligations.
