Last Exile




It is a steampunk anime only with 26 episodes from GONZO studios about Claus Valca (pilot) and Lavi Head (navigator) who followed their father's steps being air couriers in a Victorian atmosphere, a world called Prester that it was divided by two countries: Disith and Anatoray. They were delivering messages in the middle of these two countries when they got the path to find Alvis, a little girl who came from one of the most important families through the two societies and she was born with the key to stop the origin of the war, the Exile, the one that generated the Grand Stream (like an enormous hurricane) modifying the weather of the two countries. There is one more country called Guild that was ruling from the sky suggesting the war between Disith and Anatoray.

There are two Original Soundtracks both composed by Dolce Triade including the "Cloud Age Symphony" opening and the "Over the Sky" ending.

Al thought it is an anime only, it's one of my most favourites. The story has been written so exactly with a marvelous imagination blending cultures with technology equalizing their own so wonderfully. Besides Saint Seiya, this is the second anime I've watched twice or more just because I like it, and everytime I do it, I enjoy it as if it was the first time I watched it. Can't forget to mention the music, it fits so well with the situations and makes you feel that you're in the sky living the story.
