What a greatly insipired opening, the music, the animation, the selection of pauses for the characteres, the grandiose ambiance, the gloomy yet intense and overwhelming theme for the villains, so greatly inspired!
These mixed scales Arabic style and kind of medieval... and this whole drum stuffs making this complex rhythm followed by the bass (after the 18 seconds intro, which is also great), it makes the music so alive, they did great, truly a good piece of music!
the title of this anime is familiar. i think i already saw it in axn but have forgotten because it was around 11yrs ago. i miss the axn anime era! NOSTALGIC!
@Sagara21 Too bad I don't have but I remember some. Gatekeepers , Vandread 1 st and 2 nd , You are under arrest , Ah my Goddess , Now and Then Here and There . Dual Parallel something , Power Stone , Samurai X , Curious Play , Cooking Master Boy , El hazard , Eden Bowy ,Boys Be , Shin hakkaden , Saiyuki , Ayashino Ceres and that all I remember for now.Still got more though .......
@LanaGame He's a guy, but he happened to have the same face as one of the princesses in the series. :> That's why he was asked to disguise as her in the series because of the similarity. You should give it a watch, it's a truly amazing series.
this was one of my first anime as a toddler...no wonder I was hooked :D (my actual first anime was 3x3 Eyes...not for kids, I know, but my dad didn't think about it lol) the third I was introduced to was Tenchi Muyo!; all three are amazing in their own right!
This is still one of my favorite animes. i think though that the newer version is okay, but this one is so much better, the art work is beautiful. This to me is true anime.
I just recently finished this series and really enjoyed it from beginning to end. Now seeing there are 2 more series The Wanderers and The Alternative World will have to check them out as well.
They don't suck! The Wanderers is just a TV series retelling. Then 2 and the Alternative WOrld are the sequels to the OVA. Now the AW is the Tenchi in Tokyo of the series, but its not that bad.
@chromethink You, my dear intolerant boy, are an idiot. The entire El Hazard series is one of the few that i have REALLY enjoyed watching. So, please, stop saying such shit.
I love Jinnai ^^

The music of El Hazard is so amazing. I love the arabesque style of the whole series, as opposed to standard bland Western medieval fantasy homage.

Those both suck, as does El Hazard 2. They should have just left the OVA alone, but I guess everyone wants to make money...

The chick that's flying is actually a guy. He's name is Makoto. He's dressed up as a girl to impersonate one of the princess that were kidnapped.
