The anime series follows the story of the adventures of Toori Aoi, who faces different foes in search of the lost pieces of the soul of Horizon Ariadust, his long-departed friend.

Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon is composed of twenty-six episodes split into two broadcast schedules, with the first thirteen episodes released from October 2 to December 25, 2011. The series continued into its second season, entitled Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon II, on July 2012.

Plot[]

Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon chronicles the story of a futuristic civilization which returned to Earth after constant warfare hindered them from traveling beyond the post-Apocalyptic Earth. At this stage, a small archipelago called the Divine States were the only hospitable land on Earth. In order to regain the space-faring technology they had lost after many years of war, they decided to recreate history with a book called the Testament as a guide.

First Season[]

It is the year 1648 in the Testament Era. Toori Aoi, Chancellor and Student Council President of the only academy on the airborne city-ship Musashi, faces the ten-year anniversary of the death of his childhood friend Horizon Ariadust in an accident. As he prepares to celebrate the occasion by proposing to P-01s (an automaton who looks exactly like Horizon) he discovers that his suspicion about P-01s' appearance actually has a basis in truth; P-01s is in fact Horizon Ariadust, reborn into a robotic body. In addition to this, Horizon's emotions have been stripped away and are now stored in eight powerful weapons called the Mortal Sin Armaments; which are now in the possession of key people in various established countries in the Divine States.

To retrieve the emotions of Horizon Ariadust, Toori Aoi along with his friends and allies begins a crusade against different obstacles as key events in history are recreated in a futuristic manner.

Second Season[]

After retrieving their first Mortal Sin Armament (the Lype Katathlipse), Toori and P-01s travel with Musashi to England where they are caught up in a historical recreation of a key event in the Anglo-Spanish War. The representatives of Tres España and England force Toori and his friends into taking one of the two sides of the war. As the two sides clash, a darker side of the Testament is revealed as an innocent girl is sentenced to die under the orders of the Testament.

Tenzou Crossunite, one of Toori's allies, decides to defy the Testament by saving the girl from her undeserved death; while England's Mortal Sin Armament becomes a valuable target as well.
