Windaria: Legend of Fabulous Battle
Windaria, not so much a fabulous battle more a Shakespearean Greek Tragedy. Contiuing on from how much i enjoyed Fantastic Adventure Of Yohko: Leda
I did some research and found this from the same Director Kunihiko Yuyama, same beautiful character designer Mutsumi Inomata and same short lived but prolific animation studio Kaname Productions.
Really is a Greek Tragedy, i mean no one has a happy ending and i can't go into much detail otherwise i would spoil this movie but i think its the first anime ive watched were no one really wins. No idea why in the title it was Fabulous Battle when war is hell, quite unusual.
Has a fantastic concept in this where a Ghost Ship flys round this planet collecting the souls of the deceased, which looks good and it used to great effect, something i thought was quite unique.
After a few fantasy genre anime i need to get back to my favorite genre Sci-fi, bring on some Mecha!

Saw the clips on Youtube after reading your posting and there's indeed some tragic love scenes. Wonder is that an game related to the naime cos ATLUS does have quite a number of RPG games.
without more clues, i think that the fabulous thing bout this fabulous battle is that the great stories don’t need a happy ending to b great & both happiness & tragedy r part of the real life... there is something sublime in the tragedy also =O
