Another fantasy filled series about a girl taken into a magical world. Many similarities to the El Hazard series, although Escaflowne has mecha in it.

So in El Hazard you aren't fighting in a huge mecha to save an alternate dimension, but you DO have 2 great series that are very colorfully animated as well as have light plots and charming characters.

Alternative World and Landlock are fairly similar in their plots, as well as a varied cast of characters. Granted, Landlock doesn't have the humor Alternative World has, but I think they are a good match.
