Anime Blade

Anime Blade is a 3D battle game built around close-quarters katana work, with anime-styled fighters on both sides of the blade. You move freely through the arena rather than trading blows from a fixed spot, so sprinting in, landing a swing and backing out again is the rhythm most fights settle into. Weapons matter here too - the selection is wide, and holding Tab to switch mid-fight is often faster than trying to win with whatever you started holding.

Points are the scoreboard, and the missions and modes give you different reasons to chase them. Picking up items you find on the ground keeps a run going longer than raw aggression does.

How to play

Move with WASD and look around with the mouse, closing distance until the enemy is inside katana range. The left mouse button swings, Space Bar jumps, and Left Shift sprints when you need to escape or chase. Press E to pick up items you spot, and hold Tab to open the weapon selection - the number keys cycle to the next and previous weapon without opening it. C sits you down and P pauses.
