Twelve Kingdoms - Vol. 10: Reverie

An elaborate and detailed epic fantasy on the scale of THE LORD OF THE RINGS, THE TWELVE KINGDOMS is an Animé that finds its roots in literature rather than the latest manga. Teenager Yoko Nakajimi is taken into another world where 12 kingdoms battle for dominance over one another. With the knowledge that she is prophesized to become a great leader, Yoko is drawn into the conflicts between the kingdoms and must bring peace between them. Although it has been compared to other fantasy Animé with female protagonists such as INUYASHA and ESCAFLOWNE, THE TWELVE KINGDOMS approaches its material with a maturity often lacking in its contemporaries. VOLUME TEN: REVERIE collects the final five episodes, 41-45, of the epic fantasy.
