El Hazard

Makoto Mizuhara is a student of Shinonome High School. He's incredibly smart and talented, much to the dismay of the school president, the shifty and insane Katsuhiko Jinnai. Nanami Jinnai is Katsuhiko's sister, and Makoto's good friend. She's very money minded and entrepeneurial. Masamichi Fujisawa is the cigarrette smoking, sake drinking teacher and night watchman of Shinonome High. One day, an ancient relic is discovered in the basement of Makoto's school. As Makoto flees from the insane Jinnai, time suddenly stops, and Makoto is called to the relic. A beautiful woman appears from the relic and sends Makoto, and, unknowingly, Jinnai, Fujisawa-sensei, and Nanami, to a distant world called El-Hazard. Makoto and Fujisawa-sensei are teleported together to the outskirts of the kingdom of Roshtaria, where they save the crown princess of the realm from the Bugrom, hive-minded bug monsters. When they return the the palace to be rewarded, they learn that the royal family is in crisis. And, with a lot of convincing, and a little jailtime, Makoto decides to help them, and that's where the adventure begins...

Rating>-4 out of 5:**** stars
Review-El-Hazard is an anime with action and adventure with plenty of humor added in. It has plenty of cool and interesting characters, each with their own little twists. The story has plenty of adult themes and references, so is not really aimed towards minors. It has excellent artwork and great animation, as well as a great soundtrack and musical selection. This has quickly become one of my favorite anime, and I highly recommend it.
