About The Boy Who Saw the Wind

The Boy Who Saw the Wind (風を見た少年) arrives as an adventure anime by Brain's Base (2000), and the premise is easy to summarize. The premise: Young boy Amon has unexplained abilities. His dad is the cheif scientist for the Empire of the Golden Snake.

Further in, he's invented weapons for this country in the past, but does not want his boy's abilities to be used for destruction so he burns his research and tries to escape the country with his family. The mom and dad die in the escape and only Amon is left. He runs from the military, ends up on an island where he learns about the ancient people who could fly on the wind and talk to animals (as he can).

With adventure at the core, exploration, new locations and a steady sense of momentum drive the story. Amon (Yumi Adachi) and Fritz (Teruhiko Aoi) are two of the characters you will meet early. If you count yourself among anyone who enjoys travel-the-world storytelling, put it on your list. At 1 episodes in total, it is easy to plan a viewing schedule.
