IZUMO - Takeki Ken no Senki
Having lost his parents at a young age, Yagi Takeru, lives alone with his kendo sensi, and they are both looked after by two of his fellow classmates from Izumo Academy, Shiratori Kotono and her sister, Asuka. Along with his best friend and greatest kendo rival, Yamato Takeshi, they are enjoying a happy school experience, at least until Takeshi and Takeru begin sharing the same dream of a priestess calling to them. In a strange confrontation in the schoolyard, Takeru and four girls are shrouded in a strange light that covers Takeshi, and then everything goes black. When they wake up, they find themselves separated from one another in a high school cracking and broken with age and covered in trees and vines. An attack by giant hostile insects, then a confrontation with strange floating creatures, with a sudden rescue by a troop of sword-carrying soldiers on horseback is proof that they are now in a very different world.

Shakugan no Shana
Buy

Sakai Yuji was a normal student, or so he thought until one day the world around him "stopped" and he was assaulted by a monster, “Kuze no Tomogara”. It was a monster which came from another world, and was able to turn human bodies into energy, something that it could eat. It was a girl with red hair and red eyes called Enpatsu Shakugan no Uchite and wielding the sword Nietono no Shana that saved him. Then, that girl, a Flame Haze, said to him “You don’t exist anymore”. What she meant was that Yuuji was dead...and now a "Torch." But more than a normal Torch, used to simulate the life of humans who've been consumed by the various Togara, Yuuji is a "Mistes" and a very special one at that. Now that Yuuji has been introduced into a frightening new world where he's not what he thought he was, he decides to make the best of it and names his female savior "Shana." Thus, she and Yuuji end up teaming up to protect the city from various Tomogara who find it suitable for their needs. What about the city do the Togara find so appealing? What is the true nature of Yuuji? Will Shana be able to deal with the other Flame Haze that come to the city? Will Shana be able to deal with the odd feelings she experiences when she thinks of Yuuji being with his female classmate Yoshida-san?
