Sum it up in a Sentence:
A girl wants revenge on her father's murderer using a giant scissor blade and a magical sailor uniform.
Main Description
Ryuko Matoi is a schoolgirl who transfers to Honnoji Academy in search of clues for her father's murderer. Armed with her giant scissors blade longsword, she immediately demands answers from the student council president, Satsuki Kiryunin, who sits at the top of the violence-dominated school. The school, however, is filled with bloodthirsty students who are bestowed with special uniforms called Goku Uniforms that grant superhuman abilities. The more stars a uniform is ranked, the more powerful and dangerous it and the wearer becomes. Ryuko is easily overpowered by Satsuki's underlings who wear these uniforms, and returns to her father's grave after her subsequent defeat and brutal beating. She then stumbles upon a sentient uniform named Senketsu that grants powers much like the Goku Uniforms, and forces Ryuko to wear itself simply for the promise of bloodshed. Armed with new powers, Ryuko reenters Honnoji Academy ready to fight.
