Concerning the show, I personally love the Chinese themes from its beautiful scores to Chinese mythology on kingship that govern the fantasy world Youko enters. The blu-ray set has 5.1 audio and each disc (3 in the set) comes with a small bit of extra content. For instant comparison to the DVD release just watch the text-less opening (which is DVD quality) first, then begin to watch the show and wonder over the richness of the color and crispness of picture.For a fan like me this was an immediate buy just as every subsequent blu-ray volume to come. However if you have yet to see this show, as someone who has watched hundreds of anime, few rival the Twelve Kingdoms for the content, attention to detail, and sheer complexity of the world. This is a show you can watch multiple times and still learn something new. A word of caution though, there are many terms for characters or sections of the world that aren't immediately explained, just trust that all the answers will come and the viewers confusion or wonder is meant to mirror Youko's as she ventures into this very different, but very relatable world. I hope you will enjoy this show as much as I have. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Watch It, Please *by E***. on Reviewed in the United States on June 16, 2013* If you like fast action, bright colors and cute love stories, don't watch this anime, but this anime has so much more to offer than all that. On the first set (there are two other box sets), the story begins rather slowly and the Protagonist is extremely whinny. The first time I saw this (it was a while ago, I just wanted to get the blu-ray), I almost didn't watch past the first episode; I couldn't stand the protagonist and the back story was just so much to take in while trying to figure out what exactly was going on. It's starts to pick up a storyline around episode 7 and the protagonist stops being so needy.Needless to say, just have patience and watch the full anime; it's a great story with beautiful music and animation. I can watch it in both English and Japanese and both offer really great voice actors that help to pull your emotions in with the storyline. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic addition! *by T***R on Reviewed in the United States on February 12, 2017* The 1st season of the Twelve Kingdoms is a great collection adder and is a must own (until a full complete blu-ray version comes). If you're a fan of this series, this blu-ray comes highly recommended considering how rare it is to find it and its price for the blu-ray. Video and audio quality are solid and there are some good bonus features that accompany the set. The series itself is fantastic as well and comes highly recommended to really anyone whether they be anime fans or not. It's really difficult to dislike this series since the characters and stories are so well told through its beautiful and exciting narrative. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/5110055-the-twelve-kingdoms-part-1-shadow-of-the-moon-sea](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/5110055-the-twelve-kingdoms-part-1-shadow-of-the-moon-sea) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-10-17*
