Witchblade

2006 TV-MA 30m 7

In order to protect her daughter, a young single mother is forced to fight after acquiring a powerful ancient weapon.

Masane Amaha exists on society's fringe, with no memory and no direction. Upon her arrival back in Tokyo, her fate is altered forever when she unites with the Witchblade-an ancient weapon of ecstasy, power, and pain that penetrates the body and soul. Conscripted into the service of the Doji Group and hunted down by the NSWF, Masane's greatest battle will be for her very soul.
