apparently it's mostly based around "The Adventures of Prince Camaralzaman and the Princess Badoura" tale from Arabian Nights

wish the music had an eastern romance style, to complement the visuals...

The visual was top-notch! As for the story though, I probably should have read up the Arabian's tale that this was based on, before watching the show.

No one other than Yoshitaka Amano is as capable of capturing beauty and rapture exactly as how I envision it in my mind.

Such beautiful animation <3 <3 <3
..felt so short. I could watch it all day.. was completely captivated by the 'flow' of detailed artwork, one of the best I have ever seen. Surreal and beautiful. Creative.

Beautiful music, beautiful imagination and animation.

How many awesome artsyles can you fit in 23 minutes of animation? All of them, if you're Yoshitaka Amano. What a trip.

I think I'm getting some 90's Disney-like vibes from this, just added with a shit ton of LSD.

I enjoyed this more than I thought lol. 6/10.

The woman's design was pretty in the scene after she woke up(?)(before she jumped off). Im not sure if part of it was another dream inside her dream or she actually jumped off the building and died. So confusing, if it was her dream why did they show the prince's perspective in some parts. idk it was trippy, i liked the art

Looks like kamasutra.

But overall, this is definitely not my thing. This might be works out if the duration isn't over 20 mins long. I watch this randomly and figured already this is also contain absurdity visual mixture to tell the story, and, sex, even between the little thingy, kekw. However, as much already said here and there, they've got a good point there using the arabian nights tale, however it was, cause myself unable to know that in detailed. So, if you like this kind of movie, good for you. I am just gonna give this a pass.

What a trip.
I didn't feel bored at any point it went by pretty fast, an okay way to kill some time

personally every anime should be done by yoshitaka amano art from this point onwards.
I like Közi a healthy amount.

I’m familiar with the 1001 Nights but not the story this was based off of (Princess Badour). I should read it now.

Overall this anime was great. Beautiful animation, wonderful music, I love how the Princess and Prince were drawn. I wanna watch it again soon.
If I had to choose between One Piece and a girlfriend...I think I'll go with One Piece
