Summary: hentai hentai hentai but medieval: the pure schlock of anime
Review: I'll tell you the truth, I've only seen the first two episodes, and then I had the inclination to burn the CD, my computer, and the desk it was on. But I didn't because I like my computer, and desk, and the CD was borrowed from my friend Joel. But before I include anymore of my own bias I will give a short summary of the series. I admit that the series does have a legendary first line: "first there was the light, and the dark,...but these were not their final form." From there it fast forwards a while to where a big important stone has been broken, thus the land is in chaos. The main characters are a sensual voluptuous woman (a princess), who of course is very energetic, and a male lead who is a horny, weak, cowardly warrior, who is to eventually prove himself strong and brave, and still horny. There is an ensemble of kings queens, witches wizards, elf and the occasional half man half animal person, which is nothing unusual.
Overall the storyline reveals itself as a very serious fight between good and evil, with some scenes of good humor, and plenty of tasteless sex. There is the obvious polar conflict between two factions, with battles, spying, and intrigue. Of course the main female protagonist getting captured and held hostage, which of course leads to sex. The male lead (part of the opposing clan, of course) finds her captured, and in a dishevelled state, and offers to help lick her wounds, which, of course, leads to sex. And while this goes on the kings are in an epic battle.
This is an anime for fans who don't mind, or even like, watching sex, with a relatively intricate plot in between the, uh, action. Oh, and plenty of medieval battles. It is still entertaining...in a way. If anything it's entertaining as a flic of pure camp. This is definitely not one to show the young ones, unless you have the time to do a full edit on a pro editing suite. Obviously this would cut down the anime quite a bit. Certainly anime for a certain discerning taste.
