| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Episode> There could have been more of romantic ending between the two (four) of them or at least "few years after"part I don't get what went through Karla's mind. How did she come up with idea that creating supreme god of death who kills everything on island could possibly maintain balance of power, so one side or other would never become too strong... That god was super strong unbalancing element in the first place. Overall > Not bad anime, it could be much better if they focused all episodes around same characters, their accomplishments and developments. For show tagged as romance i'd expect little bit or romantic part. I like RPG feel it gives. Reminds me of some party based D&D games i've played over the years. Very nice OP/ED 7/10 Sent with Mal Updater |

( Currently interested in OP MC genre. Recommendations are welcomed, preferable those yet not on my list ) |
| wpw, i didnt see that end coming. The final decision that Spark has to make is incredibly profound and compelling. Loved this seires, one of the best ive seen in years, and that is something. |

| The (light) dilemma was a nice way to conclude the series. I was expecting something more... muscled. [ TO FILL ] 4/5 Overall: Usually bad-looking but worthy conclusion of the island's story. Score: 7/10 Can't wait to read the Spark novels and get more out of the second party. March 6, 2021 Zut, I never came back to write in better conditions. XD (This would require another viewing, since I only remember beind baffled by Karla's methods...) |

| Orson's theme once again! Of course death spirits kill everyone except the heroes in the epicenter >_< But at least this series remembers that priests can be useful. Karla's intentions were the strangest to me. How is installing an eternal kingdom of the dead with nothing to counter it achieves "balance"? Would she even survive Kardis' revival? Can her circlet possess the dead? Regarding the battle with Wagnard: what about just throwing projectiles at him?...RPG parties should have archers xD And Greevus forgot his crossbow in Kanon, I guess. Absence of Wort from the series surprised me. ...and they lived happily ever after. Nice to see the narrator say something different at the end :p Surprisingly better than the OVA in most things except drawing quality. Better conclusions to the characters' paths (especially Ashram and Orson), a bit more emotion between the characters, and overall a smoother and nicer ending with the goddess actually reborn but overcome through an expected, but a compelling battle of willpower. P.S. The OP was Leaf's doing all along! And Yoko Kanno's... |

| Well, that ended rather quickly. Dunno how accepting Naneel into her body suddenly ended up summoning Marfa. Also isn't it kinda unfair how her summoning took like a few seconds compared to the one required for Karla? Having her disappear immediately after Marfa's appearance was also a bit lazy, you'd think they would have at least a small fight. I feel like Naneel was also severely underused. Just imagine introducing the sexiest design in the last 2 episodes... Since I took almost a year to finish this anime I don't exactly remember all of it, especially the first arc with Parn before the timeskip, but I do think it was a worthy entry into the Lodoss franchise. Many people overlook this TV Series in favor of the OVA, and I can kinda see why, but I wish more would give it a chance. Anyone that likes high fantasy will definitely get something out of this show. It is certainly not as beautiful as the OVA, both in animation and drawing quality, but it is still an epic fantasy you don't find too often. Maybe when someone in or outside of Japan eventually decides to give this one the same remaster treatment as the OVA and releases it in crispy high definition quality more people will give it a chance. I might also decide to rewatch it if it ever happens, whether that be in 5, 10 or 30 years. Also that opening is definitely the undisputed number one fantasy opening of all anime ever released! |
| I didn't get it lol Wagnard was trying to resurrect Kardis for 4-5 episodes, so they killed him and Karla that tried to help him and rescued Neese, but actually Neese remembered that Karla uttered the final spell before dying and she rewind till she was possessed by Kardis. Kardis was possessing Nesse but she was floating stuck at the same place (?) then appeared a giant woman shadow thing, she laughed a lot and she sucked Spark to Neese's mind (I think that it was her mind but the show didn't explained it properly) and the red haired girl there as Neenel the death priestess or something instead of Kardis (??) that was Neese's alter ego or something, Spark and Neese talked, then she accepted Neenel and somehow she instantaneous summoned the good goddess that she worship, Marfa. Marfa killed Kardis and that's it, wtf what happened LOL Then Marfa asks Spark if he wanted to save the girl or eternal peace and happiness and he chose the girl. Neese will grow old and die at some point, but eternal peace is eternal (duh). Also if Neese's body would be destroyed if Marfa was resurrected why it wasn't destroyed when Kardis resurrected? Also, they didn't explain the whole spell, doorway thing but at least Spark got promoted to a knight. Overall I didn't like this series, it isn't as good as the OVA. |
