I d...You know, I actually kind of agree with this. I didn't think the show was bad, but yeah, having played through the game myself, I do not understand where people are coming from when they say the characters were handled better. Yes, Toppy is great, but even then, he has a wife in the game, a wife who also happens to be a giant. Why the anime left that out I do not understand. Kyrie is a much more well developed character as well, and while Morte still isn't that great, she's given more time to develop as well. Agan serves much more of a purpose. He's not just some guy who appears every now and then. He's actually part of the main group and even has a pretty funny catchphrase. Nadja is more enjoyable as is Lia, and Lia doesn't have a crush on Kyrie in the game. (Though both actually become part of the main group in the game as well) If anything, the game's story was its main saving grace. It was the only reason I could even complete it considering its combat system is broken beyond belief. The anime did not handle it nearly as well. There's a ton of great villains and gripping plot points removed from the anime. The game has a set story and sticks to it. The anime, as you pointed out, does not.Neil Dunsmorenoreply@blogger.com
