The time is 972 A.D. in Heian-kyo, the capital of ancient Japan. Kyoto is becoming a corrupt and run-down city; selfish samurai and onmyoji, who care only about gaining political power are everywhere. To make matters worse the city is suffering from famine and widespread disease. Unable to ignore the condition of the city any longer, the Imperial Court decides to send Minamoto no Raiko, a famous samurai well-known for his archery skills, to recover a legendary gem said to hold mysterious power to save the world. However Raiko also falls ill to disease. Instead his youngest sister, Hikaru, decides secretely to make the journey in his place.

I don't remember when I watch this anime, but I remember my feelings for it. It was aired in Animax, and the trailer, with Chieko Kawabe 'Cry Baby Cry' song as bg song was really catchy. So I decided to give it a try. I set my alarm at the middle of night to watch this series and I'm a fan immediately when I saw the first episode.
The drawing are almost like real human, so you won't get to see anything cute in this series. But still, I think Hikaru was beautiful, especially her 'ancient self', and Seimei is a super good looking hunk with perfect red hair.
Ah well, now that I remember it, I didn't remember the ending and the some of the important chapters in thi series, that's mean I need to watch it again. :) Uwa~ I'm looking forward for it~~~

I was surprised when some people didn't even know Otogi Zoushi!
I saw the anime on Animax in 2008 and I have to say I felt in love with it at the first sight.
The historical, and reincarnation element in this story are the things that attract me, and don't judge the anime by the graphic, the plot is awesome!
