Isuca is a Japanese action manga series by Osamu Takahashi.Shinichirō Asano is a high school student and the son of a traveling stage magician and his assistant; since they rarely send living expenses home, he desperately needs money. He gets a job as a housekeeper to the Shimazu family in order to pay his rent. There he meets Sakuya Shimazu, the 37th head of the family who is tasked with capturing and sealing away monsters. Shinichirō later becomes her ally to hunt down the monsters who have come to our world.Though initially ignorant of the supernatural and unaccustomed to combat, Shinichirō soon proves very useful to Sakuya. Any time his mouth touches a monster or a person with supernatural powers, he learns that being's True Name, without which a monster can only be sealed but not truly banished. A being cannot disobey the first person to speak its true name, making Shinichirō an incredibly valuable asset in battle.A ten-episode anime adaptation aired from January 24, 2015 to March 28, 2015. Crunchyroll is streaming the series on its website, which can be viewed here for people in the following areas:note United States (and its territories), Canada, Central and South America (including the Caribbean), United Kingdom and Ireland, Europe (excluding German-speaking territories), South Africa, the Middle East and North Africa. | |

Human Shield: Used by the demon tree to prevent Sakuya from shooting it with her arrow in episode 3. It doesn't stop Suseri however, who ends up hitting the hostage as well as the demon tree. Her assistant then heals the girl's wounds. | |

Defeat Means Friendship: Used in episode 8, by the lightning wolf after Suseri manages to wound it enough during her exorcism. He then asks her what she wants, and she says she just wants his help for three years so she can surpass Sakuya and not have to obey her mother all the time. He finds it amusing enough to allow her to use him as a spirit summon. | |

Green-Eyed Monster: Episode 8 reveals that Suseri hates Sakuya mostly because of how carefree her upbringing seems to have been. It's then contrasted with her own, and how her mother constantly forced her to study, not even allowing her to go outside to play while Suseri watches Sakuya running around outside having fun. | |

Prior to this, she was almost always cold and standoffish with him. Suseri starts opening up more to Shinichiro in episode 8 after he spends a little time with her and learns more about her strict upbringing due to her mother. | |

Parental Abandonment: Shinichirō's parents traveled to Europe for training and and thought he would be fine on his own. Unfortunately they also cut off money, so he's forced to work in addition to going to school. In episode 6, Shinichiro finds out that Sakuya's parents went missing after a battle eight years earlier. Sakuya says Nadeshiko and her grandmother took part in the battle, but were severely injured and neither one will talk about that incident. | |

Ungrateful Bastard: Sakuya for much of episode 6. She acts cold towards Shinichiro after he forcibly kisses her in the previous episode to save them from the trap, until he finds out she wants to be head of the Shimazu clan in order to find out what happened to her parents. Goes double for Suseri's mother in the manga. | |

Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right!: Shinichiro says this to Suseri in episode 8 after seeing her hurt on the couch due to a failed exorcism. Though she insists on doing it, he offers her help, saying that he doesn't care about rules and regulations regarding exorcisms, and that he just wants to help her. Surprisingly he's allowed to, but they have to face it by themselves with no help from the clan. | |

Honor-Related Abuse | |
| Isuca (Manga) / int_4a8fd6a0 | comment |
The series also does a fair job of highlighting the Honor-Related Abuse that plagues this system. If Suseri's mother didn't need her to become a Puppet King to control the clan, Suseri would likely have either been forced to commit ritual suicide, or flee the clan in disgrace. All because Suseri's mother Sagiri doesn't think Shinichirō is a "proper" husband, regardless of what the head actually thinks, says, or does on the subject. | |

Then rubbing her breasts on his back to wash it as told to by Nadeshiko. And later stating that he could do whatever he wanted to with her, including finishing what they started in the bathroom. Tamako is quite comfortable hugging Shinichiro in episode 6 while completely naked. She even gets mad at Sakuya for seemingly interrupting them, though the latter just walks away without saying anything. | |

Heroic Seductress | |
| Isuca (Manga) / int_7133e180 | comment |
Heroic Seductress: Suseri employs this against Shinichirō in episode 3 in an attempt to lure him away from Sakuya. She starts by washing his back with her breasts, and later says she'll do anything he wants her to in exchange for giving her power similar to how he did to Sakuya. | |

Idiot Ball: Sakuya's actions in episode 5, and her absolute refusal to kiss Shinichiro because she doesn't want him finding out her true name. This continues even after they've been tied up by the enemy, who is also slowly torturing them by stabbing and cutting them repeatedly, and he forces a kiss on her as they really have no other choice if they want to survive at all. | |

Almost Kiss | |
| Isuca (Manga) / int_7eb49b31 | comment |
Almost Kiss: Shinichirō does this at least three times to Suseri. The first time he's just too embarrassed to do it despite the gloom car coming in closer. He nearly kisses her shortly afterward, but is interrupted by Sakuya showing up. The third time is when they're stuck in the limo as it's being crushed by the gloom car. But she's behind him, so he couldn't turn around to kiss her even if he tried to. | |

Establishing Character Moment: Shinichirō meets an attractive woman while walking home at night, only to then be attacked by her after she switches to her true form as a giant demonic centipede-like creature. He's unknowingly saved by Sakuya who snipes it to save him. Shinichirō meets Sakuya and Tamako when the latter was being hunted by the former. Sakuya also wonders how he was able to pull off the arrow which had a strong magic enchantment on it. Suseri is first presented in episode 3 attacking a demon, but also hurting the hostage it using. Her assistant then heals the girl. Later she tries to seduce Shinichirō in the bathroom, and simply takes off with him in her limo after he passes out. | |

However, Tamako seems quite happy with it. | |

Healing Factor: Shinichirō orders Tamako to take some of his life force in episode 2 to help her defeat the Monster of the Week. Sakuya says that's a bad idea, because he'll eventually die, and that it was best to let Tamako simply fade away. However, Nadeshiko takes some measurements of his powers after the battle, and notices that he fully recovered his life force almost immediately instead of the few months it normally should take. This comes in very handy in later battles. | |

Sakuya nearly takes the demon up on her offer to team up and slay the Shimazu clan due to their mistreatment of her and her parents. But Shinichiro gives her another option; he would help her look for her parents, and that she should accept what happened in the past and let it go, as she's not the same person she was eight years ago. | |

Freudian Excuse | |
| Isuca (Manga) / int_c868a42a | comment |
Freudian Excuse: Sakuya is hard-headed and tries not to rely on anyone because she's seen as a black sheep in the Shimazu clan, due to her father being a Western mage. After her parents go missing in a battle, they're not talked much about, and Sakuya isn't given any clear answers, so she strives to be the head of the clan in order to find out the truth behind what happened to them. Suseri doesn't get along with Sakuya at all when she's first introduced. Though part of it is due to the two competing for the next head of the Shimazu clan, episode 8 reveals she also harbors resentment towards Sakuya because of how strict her upbringing was, compared to how carefree the latter seemed to be. | |

I Know Your True Name | |
| Isuca (Manga) / int_d3b02ffb | comment |
I Know Your True Name: Whenever Shinichirō kisses a monster or person with supernatural powers, he sees how they got their true name. Speaking this name then gives him power to make them obey almost any command short of suicide. This name also allows Sakuya to fully banish monsters instead of merely sealing their movements. Unfortunately, he also learns her True Name, becoming her "true master". Additionally, only the first person who utters the true name can command the creature. Though Sakuya initially thinks she's Tama's master, it was actually Shinichirō who uttered it first. | |

You Are Not Alone: Shinichiro tells Sakuya this in episode 6 after learning more about her past. He tells Suseri this too in episode 8 after finding out the latter is trying to perform an exorcism but isn't having much luck. | |

You Can't Go Home Again | |
| Isuca (Manga) / int_da12bcfb | comment |
You Can't Go Home Again: In chapter 47, Suseri flat out tells Sagiri that, after all that's happened between them and the fact that her mother attempted to kill Shinichirou, she can't return to Kamakura. | |

Intimate Healing | |
| Isuca (Manga) / int_da2f3716 | comment |
Intimate Healing: Combined with a Magic Kiss. Shinichirō orders Tamako to suck some of his life force in episode 2 in order to defeat the Monster of the Week. She does it by kissing him rather passionately, including some tongue-wrestling. This not only restores her power, but due to his latent powers, it makes her even stronger. He does this to help Sakuya recover in episode 8 after she uses up almost all of her power fighting the Monster of the Week in episode 7. | |

Male Gaze | |
| Isuca (Manga) / int_dfb71617 | comment |
Male Gaze: Used quite a bit in the anime, often showing off the female characters wearing revealing clothing and at low angles. Unfortunately, at least for the broadcast version, much of it is blocked out by Censor Steam or a Censor Box. The ending also utilizes this, showing off a nearly naked Sakuya and Tamako repeatedly. | |

Supporting Harem: Sakuya is the clear female lead and Shinichirō's main love interest. There's a bunch of girls who are competing for Shinichirō's love and provide Fanservice, but the serious romance is reserved for Sakuya. | |

Clothing Damage | |
| Isuca (Manga) / int_e61d9a3c | comment |
Clothing Damage: Sakuya suffers this in the episode 1 and 4. She's almost completely naked except for her panties. Tamako's clothes get torn slightly after Sakuya uses an area effect attack while she was luring the pack of demons away from the main one in episode 4. The rest of her clothing then gets shredded after she gets attacked by a possessed Sakuya. | |

Clingy Jealous Girl: Sakuya doesn't seem to like Tamako getting too intimate with Shinichirō, and gets mad at him for anything she does to him, such as when Tamako licks him. She also doesn't like Suseri attempting to seduce him in episode 3. Suseri is also showing signs of this. in chapter 37 Tamako objects to Shinichiro kissing Suseri in episode 4, even as they're surrounded by enemies. | |

Talking Is a Free Action: The undead samurai in episode 4 seems to wait while the main characters are arguing about Shinichiro kissing Suseri. Doubly ridiculous in episode 10. Even flames of a burning house wait patiently while Sakuya and Shinichirō have their lover's quarrel. | |

Shown Their Work | |
| Isuca (Manga) / int_ffad4e9f | comment |
Shown Their Work: The series does a reasonably good job showcasing the clan courtship rituals some of the more "traditional" families in Japan still use. Basically, the male who comes courting enters negotiations with a mediator (Nadeshiko in this case), is carefully scrutinized by the clan head, and then, if found worthy is "sold" his new bride in exchange for territory, alliances, sometimes money, but most often, as is the case with Shinichirō, a pledge of loyalty and lifetime service. In Shinichirō's case, Nami believes his services and accomplishments more than merit betrothal to two women from the clan, Suseri and Sakuya, a powerful enchanted katana, and the proper training on how to wield it without overly relying on the cursed "evil" spirit within. The series also does a fair job of highlighting the Honor-Related Abuse that plagues this system. If Suseri's mother didn't need her to become a Puppet King to control the clan, Suseri would likely have either been forced to commit ritual suicide, or flee the clan in disgrace. All because Suseri's mother Sagiri doesn't think Shinichirō is a "proper" husband, regardless of what the head actually thinks, says, or does on the subject. | |
