It is a story where the protagonist “shuna”, who is the prince of a poor country, travels for the golden grain for the country. It seems to be a story drawn based on the actual Tibetan folklore. If you look at the illustration, it is a character, a costume, a style of a building similar to “Nausicaa of the valley of the wind”, but there is no story-like relationship.
In this journey the state of the devastated world is drawn from beginning to end. The composition of many people who are desperate to live in a harsh world and some of them are the same as today. “Shuna” serves the purpose at the end of a tough journey, but for that it will pay a price. It will be a royal road development that can be helped by the girl who helped in the middle of the trip, but I think that if you think of the harshness of the trip, I can say that it is a moving story.
And the mysterious animal (deer?) ”Yakkuru” is cute. This is a great heroine, not to mention an excellent heroine. “Yakkuru” cute. It has nothing to do with ”Princess Mononoke”.
