However, Gai makes a quick FaceHeelTurn and goes serving the Asurah leader Indra who had hte goddess petrified and framed Shurato and his fellow guardian Hyuga for the did. Shurato has a hard time confronting Gai since [[BrainwashedAndCrazy his new persona is completely different from the man he used to know]]. From now, Shurato will have to accomplish his destiny and proove his innocence for the petrification of Vishnu, with the help of Hyuga and Lakshi, a spirit priestess who falls in love with him.

This little known anime was released in 1989 along with the manga of the same name.

Shurato is still notable to this day for being the only {{Anime}} to date to rely entirely on Hindu mythology instead of Japanese and Chinese myths.
