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.

This is without a doubt one of the best animes I've ever seen.
The story makes many twists and turns, and you wonder how it will all fit together in the end.
The main story is divided into four main archs, but since the bookseries is unfinished, so is the anime.
The first and third arch are the only ones completed, but the second and fourth gives a preview of things to come.

The main characters are well presented, and you grow to care for them. The dialogue is well made, and the voiceacting is done very well.
The animation hints to the fact that this was a very expencive production, and the background still images are done with attention to great detail. The characters and beasts are drawn and coloured on a top-notch level.

You will most likely enjoy watching this show, and the review value of the show is high.
