The Twelve Kingdoms/Awesome

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • The Twelve Kingdoms: Youko Nakajima stands against the whole royal army of Kei. The entire army bows.
    • There is also Yoko's first Imperial Decree: The immediate banning of all bowing. 'Nuff said.
    • And then there's the episode when Yoko is traveling through a city that is attacked by a house-sized Youma. A mysterious stranger jumps into the street, dispatching the youma with one swift attack. When asked who he is, he galantly replies: "I am the king of En."
    • Shushou making Shoukei bow to her. A girl who looks no older than 12 does this with two fingers.
    • Kantai stopping a line of 13 or more "fortified carriages" linked together by turning into a bear and toppling them all at once, horses and all.
