This is the second major animated piece following the big hit "A Thousand and One Night Stories" in Japan. The distributor treated the film as an erotic animated work for adults, advertising it as a piece "far more erotic than a thousand and one might stories." The movie produced a number of popular sayings and gags that have since become outdated. However, the film remains an impressive and beautiful piece.
