    The Severing Crime Edge


    Alternative Title: Dansai Bunri no Crime Edge
    Type: TV
    Episodes: 13
    Source: Manga
    Producers: Media Factory, Studio Gokumi
    Genres: Action, Fantasy, Romance, Seinen

    Synopsis: Haimura Kiri is a seemingly ordinary boy with one slight problem: he is obsessed with cutting other people's hair. One day he meets Mushiyanokouji Iwai, the "Hair Queen" who cannot cut her hair because of an inherited curse. Kiri finds out that his scissor, "Dansai Bunri no Crime Edge" is the only thing that can cut them. But little did he know that their meeting sparked the start of an old murder game to kill the "Hair Queen" using the cursed killing tools, the "Killing Goods." Can Kiri protect Iwai from the Killing Goods Owners? Let the game begin!

    Resources: ANN | AniDB | MyAnimeList

    [Anime-Koi] - Episode 01

    Japan and their never ending journey into finding new fetishes does it again! The first episode was really good though, i enjoyed it on many levels.

    Quite a strange atmosphere in this show, for sure. I wish he hadn't cut her hair that short, though, but considering the flashback, I reckon he only wants to cut hair, not make it stylish or anything like that. Psychologically, after suffering under the cursed hair for so long, Iwai would also want it that short, at least, so I guess it made sense.

    The steamy scene of Kiri just touching Iwai's hair (in the screenshot), right before the two killers entered, was very intensive indeed. I mean, not many H titles I've watched ever got anywhere near that.

    I know right? It felt intense and "real" without being creepy. And when anime manages to transmit sensuality without it feeling creepy you know there's something there that's worth watching.

    This is the dumbest shit Iīve ever watched. Yeah, think Iīll drop it.

    Guy approaching unknown girl out of the blue; her not freaking out, instead welcoming in her home. Both getting orgasms from touching her/having hair touched. Suddenly, two killer ladies. Killing goods, wat. Then: story about ancient killers who left their weapons to their ancestors. Of course, the protagonist just so happens to be such an ancestor. And so on.

    wtf

    I could bear with the creepy factor regarding the main characterīs hair fetish (itīs still better than swallowing a girlīs saliva), but all that fantasy-plot bs on top of it was too much for me to handle.

    Think of it as a mix of Fate Stay Night and mass murder killing tools fetish

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    For the whole time i was watching it i've been thinking about FSN - due to OST. It is not even similar - but i still felt it.

    This is the best goddamn anime of all times, the fetishes are so out there and in your face that it has me in between full wood and uncontrollable laughter.

    I'd love to see what Shaft could do with this, or maybe just any studio with a better budget. Not that they're not doing a good job already, but i feel the concept deserved a bit more.

    Kiri and Iwai's relationship is so cute, yet at the same time so warped by Kiri being under the influence of the killing tool, that it's far more interesting than any regular romance. It's not like Iwai would be perfectly normal, probably mainly due to her isolation and knowledge caused by the curse, but it always gives a funny feeling when Kiri starts stroking her hair with the borderline insane expression on his face.

    This show is kinda entertaining, but so stupid at the same time.

    Episode 5 - Anime-Koi

    The pig couple is quite evil, and the power disgusting. But Iwai deserves some punishment after treating Kiri so coldly.

    Kiri should consider selling the cut hair as some sort of high tensile strength construction building equipment.

    I finally got what the music in this show is reminding me(other than FSN)... it was Inganock! only thing that's missing is silent whisper '...Konichiwa.. Gii..'.

    Kiri should give the shark-teeth judge creep a baldy haircut. He's bothersome, and his arrogance should be brought down a notch.

    The end was nice. It's good Iwai and Kiri reached an understanding again.

    I wouldn't be surprised if it became ordinary hair after he has cut it, being only uncuttable as long as its attached to Iwai's head.

    I didn't get the part i wanted in the school play years ago so i got into S&M and decided to kill a little girl.
    I really wish they didn't try to explain this stuff and just let it be.

    I fully agree. They are killing goods precisely because they don't need any such explanations.

    None of them are anywhere near normal people, though. I imagine they could have different standards. In the end, under normal conditions (what should go for normal for them), they all should be trying to kill Iwai and that's it. Since they aren't, anything could happen.

    I was specifically talking about the hair-model girl and Kiri. The sisters are fine, I accept those ones.

    Oh, right. For some reason I didn't take it as a near-rape experience, so I was unsure of what you were talking about. She said afterwards it was scary but honestly she looked every bit as excited as Kiri, so I think she was just highly embarrassed and masked it by harsher words.
