Gokudo (ゴクドーくん漫遊記 Gokudo-kun Man'yūki?) is an anime about a mercenary named Gokudo. Unlike most main characters, he is closer to a villain than a hero. He doesn't hesitate to abuse of people in needs, sell out his friends to save himself, run away from any dangers or ditch others who helped him once he doesn't have any more interests in them. His life start to change when he finds a magical Genie named Djinn who wants to grant him three wishes. As most people would benifit from having three wishes, in his case it leads him to a lot of trouble, and it doesn't take long before he tries to escape from Djinn.
Other important characters are the Old Seer who constantly appears out of nowhere seemingly only to make Gokudo suffer more, Rubette La Lette, a noble girl with a tomboy attitude who sees Gokudo as a rival, and Prince, a mage much better at handling women than Gokudo will ever be.
