Along with her schoolmate Kutani Masahiko, Himiko is transported by the flame to an ancient kingdom known as Yamatai.

The story is fine. The music is also fine. However, the art is not of good quality. The drawings, especially the characters, are not well proportioned. The characters have no depth. I mean the way the characters are presented, it's shallow. You can't even associate the shallowness of the characters to mystery. It's kind of a let-down. Well, you can enjoy the show a little if you are patient. Overall, the whole story is okay. Don't watch it if you are looking for a great anime. ^_^

A high school girl with some of her friends transported to another world and later have to deal with problems which exist in that world. They will have a lot of important peoples along side their quest and there is many other similarities which you can see for yourself.
Although they tell the story in a different way I think they both are a good watch.
