Synopsis:
From the acclaimed studio Production IG (Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex, Blood: The Last Vampire) comes the most visually stunning anime series ever to grace the small screen, pushing the boundaries of fantasy and reality, challenging our perception of what is past and what is present.

Even your own land can be an enemy shore. Hikaru`s quest for the Magatamas of Water and Fire lead her across the sea to cursed islands. The first is protected by the ferocious pirate king, Torakuma, whose blood feud with the local inhabitants threaten to tear the band of adventurers asunder. She also encounters the Kumaso clan - warriors trained in the deadly arts of gunpowder. Hikaru discovers that the Magatama of Fire is not the only thing at stake. The vengeful Shuten Doji has taken the Kumaso clan and plans an attack on the capital itself! She hurries home empty-handed, but the ministers of the court are not likely to believe her before it`s too late....
