I really loved the story of this series.  I felt that it was unique and interesting.  The animation was sorely lacking.  It felt like I was watching a slideshow of pictures for a great deal of the series.  It started getting better towards the end.  There were times when I thought I might just quit watching just because it really got annoying at points when you'd hear lots of stuff going on but there would just be a nonmoving picture showing.  The story starts out in a small village with a girl named Flute and a boy named Hamel.  The village is pretty small and in the middle of no where.  They stumble upon an outsider who is injured and Flute takes him to Hamel's to nurse him back to health.  They end up having to go on a journey to the main city/palace to meet the queen.  Which leads to another journey to find Pandora's box which had been opened many years ago and released the monsters into the human world.  There's a lot more to it but I don't want to give much away.  I started watching this not knowing anything about it.  So, I wasn't sure what to expect.  But like I said, the story is really good.  I'm planning to look for the manga which is 37 volumes long.
