When reading Basara it really reminded me of Nausicaa at many moments.
Both mangas have an epic feel and really tough heroines. Both are daughters of their villages' chiefs and have an important 'destiny' that involves healing the world after a lot of destruction. Both characters have a cute pet that follows them around. They also are both very charismatic, easily becoming friends with almost everyone. Basara hints at environmental concerns, while Nausicaa makes it one of the main topics of the story. Sarasa is more inclined to fighting that Nausicaa is.
Both stories have very emotional moments and a large cast of complex characters. Basara
