Synopsis:
Fifteen years in the future, by high-level scientific power, a violent battle is taking place between La'Cryma, that protects humanity, and Shangri-La, that plans the total annihilation of all space & time. The key to stopping Shangri-La's invasion is a mysterious object known as the "The dragon torque". A group of "Dragon Knights" has been sent out through time & space to find it. They come across 12 year old Haruka & her friend Yuu (who are currently planning on running away to tokyo). They run into one of the Dragon Knights, one named Karasu. He (Karasu) believes that Haruka is the dragon torque. He also claimes that he is actually Yuu from fifteen years in the future! To top it all off, Shangri-La also has shown up in this dimension and is also after the dragon torque. It appears that the Dragon Knights don't have as much time as they had anticipated.

I know that the first volume was just released this october, but the others are soon to follow (check the above listing). The characters appear to be hand drawn (old school) and the plot still has my brain trying to figure out what's going to happen. If you are patient and watch the entire series, you will not be dissappointed. I'm currently watching the episodes on youtube, because I can't wait until the D.V.D release! Let me tell you, it just keeps getting better!
