Summary:
Yoko Nakajima, an unhappy high school student, is one day suddenly faced with a strange man who swears allegiance to her. After a battle with demon-like beasts, he then takes her to another world along with two of her classmates. There, her appearance has changed and she can understand the language even though her classmates cannot. But their status as "Kaikyaku" (people who come from Earth) makes them hunted fugitives, so they wander the land of the 12 countries, simply trying to survive and to figure out the reason why they were brought to this world.
Literally nothing happens in this anime it's a lot of smoke and no fire it's like Hamlet, if you don't know Hamlet is a guy who when you first hear about him he's cutting off a guys head. Cool right? Wrong after I don't remember how many chapters it builds up to a climax in the story that never happens, one minute he's talking the next thing king is dead I got whiplash reading it. The rest of the story is them whining about a scene you never even got to see this pretty much sums up Twelve Kingdoms. A girl goes to another world to help save it from an evil army lead by a witch or something, we will fight them on the... what's it's been how many years since the battle, guess we have nothing to do for the next 20+ episodes but talk about the politics and zoology of an imaginary world. Did you know how spirit creatures are born well here's a 2 hour documentary.... I think you get the point just watch something else.
