What is it about???

I´d call it a modern adaption of "the inhabitants of Schilda" [Schildbürger]. Schilda(u) is a village that is located in german... - I mean in misnopotamia behind utopia and the villagers there tend to a very 'unconventional' way of living... "Kino no tabi" consists of an arrangement of short stories, animation and sound are well done and "The beautiful world" hits the point. I think you´re better off watching anime without reading the descriptions/reviews, it tends to spoil a lot sometimes, because you´ll know it will be a great series, "Saikano" for example, but don´t really feel like watching it anymore. If you don´t mind a little spoiler... http://www.animenfo.com/anime.php?id=1152

Great series not a lot of people noticed. Anyone know the name of the opening and ending song?

I just watched the first 3 episodes of this anime and I must say that it has a very different feel from a lot of anime I have watched in the past. I can't reccomend it to everyone, but for those who would like to watch something different without stale characters and sterotypical plotlines,I reccomend it. I for one will definatly look forward for every episode. It seems to evolve without trying to push its agenda down your throat...The sound is masterful too, and by itself is a reason I watch.
