Corpse Princess (2008): The Undead Anime Girl With 108 Kills to Make! 💀

What if getting into heaven meant destroying 108 undead monsters? Corpse Princess, also known as Shikabane Hime, is a dark action-horror anime produced by Studio Gainax and FUNimation. It follows Makina Hoshimura, a murdered girl resurrected as a Shikabane Hime—a supernatural fighter tasked with destroying undead creatures known as Shikabane. Armed with dual MAC-11 submachine guns and bound by a contract with a Buddhist monk, Makina hunts monsters born from human hatred, regret, and obsession. Every battle brings her closer to salvation while she struggles to maintain her humanity and avenge her murdered family. With intense gunplay, supernatural lore, and a grim take on the monster-hunting formula, Corpse Princess is worth checking out if you enjoy dark anime from the 2000s. Have you watched Shikabane Hime?
