Title: Legend of Basara
Rating: 3.5 of 5
This is a rather interesting series with quite a few twists and turns. It takes place several hundred years in the future after the demise of civilization. A pair of fraternal twins born in a small village, the brother Tatara being prophesied as the savior who will overthrow the evil emperor and unite Japan. As the first twist of the plot, Tatara is killed by the Red King (the local ruler) and his sister Sarasa steps up and becomes Tatara. There are a select few who know the truth but they are behind her and support her in the struggle against the corrupt empire.
Now for the real twist, the Red King and Sarasa meet and fall in love with each other not knowing their true identities. After the first 13 episodes, they have both acknowledged their love of each other (marriage proposal) and silently, their vows to destroy each other. They have just killed the Blue King (one of Red King's three older brothers).
Now as I was watching, there is no where in the prophesy that they can't join up to overthrow the emperor and unite Japan together... Who knows?
