That's Seirei no Moribito--and looking at the Adult Swim line up, it looks like the name is the same. It is absolutely awesome.

Oho. Care to divulge what it is about? I know that I can wiki it and get it in a few seconds flat, but I think it's a bit more fun to get descriptions from a more... partial source.

The character there, Balsa, is a female mercenary, and probably one of the best actiony female characters I've ever seen in a fantasy. She's strong, but also sympathetic, and more importantly to me, she's flawed and mature. She also beat the normal anime age of incompetence--she's thirty, and they don't act like she's ancient or she's weird. She ends up being asked to protect the second prince of this nation from his own father, because he's possessed, supposedly, by an evil water spirit. The story is handled very well. And while the fight scenes aren't as plentiful as I'd wish, they are probably the best I've ever seen in anime.

They're not necessarily for everyone, but if you like action girls, good world building, and sort of Asian inspired fantasy settings, it's a good one. Also, the art and animation are very, very good. All the characters are wonderfully written, and complex, and the guy in this icon was Balsa's mentor and teacher, and has some exceptionally awesome moments toward the end of the show.

Which is over, and complete, at 26 episodes (if I remember right) which makes it a really nice change of pace from some series that go on and on and on forever.
