harvest to seize the village's crops. Faced with starvation, the villagers
send out a mission to find and recruit some samurai to defend them. With

samurai would even consider accepting such an deal, the villagers can only
hope that their saviours will appear before the rice is ready for harvest.

a princess from the Clow Kingdom, are childhood friends with a close relationship.

the witch, Yuuko. Yuuko tells Syaoran that he has to travel from one alternate
reality to another to collect fragments of Sakura's memory. However, even
if Sakura regains her memory, she will have no recollection of Syaoran. Travelling
together with them is Kurogane, a warrior who was exiled from his country,
and Fye, a magician who wants to escape from his King. With the help of a

Nadescio: Plot Summary: Akito doesn't want to fight. Despite a childhood
spent on the anime Gekiganger 3, a Mecha show, he'd rather cook than pilot
a Mecha. Fate intervenes when his home on Mars is destroyed, and he is transported
instantly to the Earth, mysteriously. He has questions no one can answer
fully, but follows a girl from a chance meeting in hopes to discover any.
The girl, Yurika, is captain of the private battleship Nadesico, and in order
to follow her, he enlists as their cook. Possessing the nanite implants that
allow to control mechas, he's a handy backup pilot for the mechas of the
Nadesico. He joins a crew bent on revenging Mars and composed of misfits,
otakus, and ditzes. But in reality they are handpicked experts. They take
their own private war back to Mars to face the harsh reality that life may
not always be like a Giant Mecha Series.
Well once you've gotten through that wall of text I'll catch you on Thursday.
