The story circulates around a mysterious and dangerous island referred to simply as "G". A long time ago, a powerful god named Gestalt was banished to the earth and he had found refuge in the island known as G. To utter the name for which it stands is forbidden, for people were so afraid of the wrath of the god that they considered his name a curse. Father Oliver is a priest who has left his order and traveled to the island of G in order to discover the truth behind it. He ends up making the acquaintance of a young girl named Ohri, who turns out to be quite adept in magic.
Meanwhile, the head of the order has hired a dark elf named, Suzu, to track down Oliver and bring him back. Suzu finds him easily enough. However, she hadn't anticipated the powerful sorceress in his company, Ohri. The girl disposes of Suzu for the moment, and she and the Father continue on. As if things weren't rough enough, the island of G has it's share of monsters and magic-users to get in the way of their travels.

Where it came from
Choujuu Densetsu Gestalt was released as a two-episode original video animation in 1997, produced by TV Tokyo and animated by Studio Gainax. Based on the manga series by Yun Kouga, the project emerged during a period of transition for Gainax as they adapted various shoujo and fantasy properties into shorter, high-concept formats. The story centers on a priestess-in-training and her journey through a world where human and demi-human societies collide, emphasizing themes of identity and moral ambiguity.
The character designs were handled by Kazuya Tsurumaki, who sought to translate Kouga’s distinctively ornate and elegant manga aesthetic into a fluid animation style. While the series is often remembered as a niche title, it is frequently cited by enthusiasts for its unique atmosphere and the influence of Kouga's aesthetic on late 90s fantasy anime. Upon its release, it received a modest reception, valued more for its artistic visual direction than for its narrative complexity.
