Close friends Chikane and Himeko witness their classmate Soma transform into one of "the Orochi", servants of the dark god meant to bring about the apocalypse. But the girls are actually the two priestesses meant to avert the catastrophe. Saving Soma from his curse, the three must defeat the remaining six Orochi, all while sorting out their conflicting romantic feelings. Kannazuki no Miko is a blend of anime love triangle, mecha, and yuri genres. The series is steeped in Japanese mythology and culture, so much of the symbolism, and even character actions, might be lost on a Western audience.
