Plot.
There was once an ogre mother who gave birth to human looking child. Instead of an ogre's horn, this child was born with a sword in hand called the Onigirimaru (Ogre Slayer). He has no name and is only referred to by the name of his sword. Though he appears human, he is pure ogre. Believing that he will become human once all of his kind vanished from the world of humans, he sets out on his destiny to slay all of his kind. Even now, in the mother world of Japan, he is still out there slaying ogres.

Wiki.
Ogre Slayer (Japanese: 鬼切丸, Hepburn: Onikirimaru) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Kei Kusunoki. The manga has been adapted into a four-episode original video animation (OVA). Both the manga and anime were distributed in North America by Viz Media, though only two volumes of the manga were released. On July 11, 2013, plans for a follow-up manga were announced. Unlike its predecessor, Onigirimaruden (鬼切丸) takes place in the Sengoku era, and features an entirely different lead character.
