Well, I've been watching this anime (among other as always ) and I just thought into opening a thread for it. This forum proved itself not very much interested in anime. But I think in this case is worth of it, since is one of the best High Fantasy anime that I saw in the last years (And belive me I watched A LOT) and it has lot of elements that I'm pretty sure would enjoy Suikoden fans (war, politics, economics, different cultures and fashions). Also the visual style is not your average generic medieval fantasy anime since it take place in an arabian-like countries.
You should give it a chance.

One of the main characters is Aladdin, another is Sinbad, but doesn't really have much to do with original tales, just take the names.Hirathien wrote:It looks a bit like Japanese Aladdin..
