Kino no Tabi: The Beautiful World
キノの旅 -the Beautiful World-
Kino sets out on a journey where the travel itself matters more than any destination. With Hermes, her unusual talking motorcycle, Kino explores different lands but never lingers longer than three days in any one place. Through these travels, they encounter joy, sorrow, pain, decline, cruelty, wonder, and insight. Yet they always maintain their liberty and self-reliance. As time passes, they come to see that the world's flaws are what make it genuinely beautiful. "The world is not beautiful; therefore it is," Kino observes.
