Originally conceived as a manga purely focused on battle action, it shifted focus during production to become a character focused series (mind you, one that still contains a considerable amount of asskicking). The plot focuses on rival schoolgirls Satsuki Kiryuuin and Ryuuko Matoi. The plot revealed so far: Ryuuko, a recent transfer student desires to take over the school through brute force and a sword shaped like scissors. Satsuki is fairly determined to make sure that doesn't happen. Swordfighting ensues.
