| Summary: |
Yoko Nakajima, an unhappy high school student, is one day suddenly faced with a strange man who swears allegiance to her. After a battle with demon-like beasts, he then takes her to another world along with two of her classmates. There, her appearance has changed and she can understand the language even though her classmates cannot. But their status as "Kaikyaku" (people who come from Earth) makes them hunted fugitives, so they wander the land of the 12 countries, simply trying to survive and to figure out the reason why they were brought to this world. |

Firstly, I have to agree with one of the previous reviews in saying this anime is extremely slow and the protagonist was annoying for the first few episodes. But the first time I saw this (back in 2007), I managed to watch the rest of the anime and I have to say that I was high impressed and wanting more. I came back to this anime quiet recently, and it felt like I was watching it for the first time, even though I had seen it already. The story is AMAZING; I haven't seen a storyline as detailed and beautiful like this one in a while and I'm very upset that the story isn't finished.
Please keep that in mind when you watch this anime. The anime cuts off at a weird spot in the book series, so I think if they could finish it, then the anime might even be flawless. Over-all for what they give you here, the story is really entertaining. The characters were well thought-out, the animation and music are beautiful and I'm only sad that I don't now how to read kanji or find the book to even finish the story.
This anime is very slow and so I would say a mature audience might appreciate this a little more. I watch Naruto myself, so that it certainly won't appeal to everyone, but if you're willing to try it out, I don't think you'll be disappointed.
