Hakkenden: Eight Dogs of the East

   Also known as Hakkenden: Touhou Hakken Ibun. For anybody who haven't watched this anime, well I must say you're outdated you've missed an incredible anime. So far, this anime still give me the feels despite it only has 2 seasons and I really hope for the season 3 to be released this year. I'm not telling you why I can't get over this anime but I can affect you show you why this anime is worth to watch. Beside the story is very strong, eloquent, unpredictable, and addictive plus many good-looking boys there, but if you don't concentrate well while watching it, you'll never get the story. The story is a bit complicated, but trust me Hakkenden will never dissapoint you instead it will continue to draw you in its deepest stories.

  Here is the synopsis:

Five years prior to the start of the story the residents of Ōtsuka village all died in a plague, only Shino Inuzuka, Sosuke Inukawa, and the girl named Hamaji, who was raised as if she were their sister, survived. They take shelter in a church near another village, whose people views the survivors with suspicion. Now the Imperial Church comes in search of "Murasame," the demon blade containing "life" which Shino possesses within his body. When the Church realizes that Shino will not come quietly with them, Hamaji is kidnapped, which results in Shino and Sosuke traveling to the Imperial City to rescue her. There they encounter Satomi Rio, a Dean of the Church, who tells Shino he must find the other six bead holders or face a fate worse than death at the hands of the Church.

   These are the main casts:

   Well, they're really so good-lookin' aren't they? This makes me wanna monopolize them can't get enough of this anime. Those aren't include all of the side characters though, but the main ones. But I'm sure all of them are enough, I mean these 'Inu' guys, well yeah, the main casts have the similarity like look at that surname, all started with 'Inu'. This means they hold the same beads and possesses something like 'magic' and guardian who safe them, but I didn't post the guardian so you may browse it yourself if you willing to.
