The Tower of Druaga: the Aegis of Uruk
Druaga no Tō ~the Aegis of URUK~ (Japanese)
برج درواجا : درع يورُك (Arabic)
ドルアーガの塔 〜the Aegis of URUK〜 (Japanese)
The Summer of "Anu": In a summer once every five years, demons in the mysterious Tower of Druaga lose their powers due to the magic spell cast by a god named "Anu". King Gilgamesh, ruler of the kingdom Uruk, uses the appearance of demons as an excuse to invade the tower and find out the construct's secrets. As 80 years passed, the Uruk army managed to fight back the demons and built a fortress city and safe haven on the very first floor of Druaga - Metz Kier. Thus begins the story of a warrior named Jil who, finding companions along the way, embarks on a quest for the fabled Blue Crystal Rod, a powerful artifact rumored to be in the highest floor of Druaga. However, other competitors, including the kingdom of Uruk itself, want the treasure, all for their own reasons.

I knew I would love this anime after watching the first episode, which parodies other anime and Sci Fi series. Really good anime and one of the few anime I can say has a good solid ending. I really like the fact that they left it a little open for a sequal but gave it a good ending anyhow. The animation is very well done and the magic users are done in such a different fashion that it is different than any other fantasy anime. It is a great mixture of midevil fantasy, magic, and asian belifs. A+ to the creators.
