Hakkenden: Touhou Hakken Ibun

Shino Inuzuka, Sosuke Inukawa and Hamaji survived the destruction of their village, but survival left them bound to extraordinary powers. Five years later, Shino still carries the living demon sword Murasame, while Sosuke can assume the form of a dog. Their sheltered existence ends when the Imperial Church takes an interest in the sword and draws them toward the capital.

Searching for answers brings them into contact with people linked by mysterious beads and experiences of death narrowly escaped. Shino must uncover what connects these strangers to the catastrophe in his past, while protecting the companions whose lives are entwined with his own and confronting the price of the choice that saved them.
