    Skies of Arcadia.

    For one thing, the entire setting is just a bunch of floating islands, and I love that trope.

    For another, there’s 6 moons, each with elemental powers. The land under each moon is affected by these powers, making the land under the red moon a scorching desert, and the land under the green moon a thick jungle.

    Then there’s the subtle mysteries. There’s an iron star in the atmosphere, which is a satalite but everyone forgot what it’s called. There’s a black moonstone, but no black moon to go with it. There’s a looper of every moon colour, but there’s also a black looper that only shows up once you defeat the main villain.

    I think, most of all, I love the tone. Pirates fight an evil empire, and a heroic, upbeat attitude is never punished.
