I have to agree with Aerith about this movie ... it is not very happy or entertaining. Starting with a secret romance between prince Jill of Paro and princess Ahnas of Itha, the King of Paro has set his heart on conquering the seaside city-state of Itha. His son resists his father’s wishes that he lead the army, enraging the king to the point of having him draw his sword against his son. Prince Jill takes the blade and kills his father, and in a fit of grief resolves to carry out his fathers war against the home city of his beloved. And the world burns. The animation is OK (this movies was released in the late 1980’s), but the story is a bit too sorrowful and tragic for me to find any joy in watching it. I am a bit kinder than Aerith, so I will give it a reluctant (watch) rating. Last updated Monday, April 04 2005. | ||||||||

This is one of the most misleading series in the history of anime. If you look at the cover, it has a happy picture filled with animals, making it look like a children's film. However, as soon as you turn it on, it is most obviously not. The movie is filled with an extremely depressing storylinww, with absolutely no humorous or uplifting points. Windaria is neck deep in gore and blood, and the most horridly ill fated romance. Being that their is little story outside of the romance, which is poorly laid out, the only point to watching this would be to see the poorly animated battle scenes. Anyone who has any real interest in seeing something with any real substance should avoid this movie. Last updated Sunday, March 14 2004. | ||||||||
