## Description

Product Description          A war between bordering lands Roland and Estabul has begun. At the King of Roland’s command, Ryner Lute,a bearer of a cursed. Extremely lethal power called the Alpha Stigma, and his beautiful comrade Ferris set out on a search for the Heroic Relics—artifacts that contain enormous supernatural powers and can be devastating if placed in the wrong hands. War tactics, bloody magical battles, and political intrigue plot twists ensue.             .com          The broadcast series The Legend of the Legendary Heroes (2010) is based on a series of light novels by Takaya Kagami, which have also been adapted to manga and video games. Ryner Lute ranks as the least impressive student at the national military academy: all he wants to do is nap. But he's actually an eclipsingly powerful Alpha Stigma, a warrior who can counter any magical weapon and hurl it back at his foe. Sion, the noble king of Roland, pairs him with hot-tempered blonde Ferris and sends the mismatched pair out to find magical relics. While Ryner and Ferris fight and fuss their way from one scrape to another, Sion and his advisers try to turn Roland into a just and peaceful kingdom, despite the opposition of the crude, grasping nobility. Any number of supernatural anime comedy-adventures have pitted a violent, hot-tempered girl against a passive doofus. But Legendary Heroes suffers from a void at its center. Ryner wants to spend his life sleeping because he's afraid of his formidable powers. Vash in Trigun lives in terror of the power of his Angel Arm, but his concern for others gives him an appealing warmth; Ryner remains a nonentity. Ferris fusses endlessly and pointlessly, and the shtick of her demanding dango (rice-flour dumpling) quickly wears out its welcome. Legendary Heroes also suffers from both too much story and too little. The complicated geopolitics of the imaginary world are frequently invoked, but never adequately explained. Yet director Itsuro Kawasaki and his crew waste the viewer's time with filler scenes that only make the narrative feel needlessly choppy and talky. (Rated TV 14: violence, violence against women and children, grotesque imagery, nudity, risqué humor, alcohol use) --Charles Solomon (1. The Napping Kingdom's Ambitions, 2.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Classic
*by T***R on April 18, 2012*

This review covers the whole series (Part I and II) and contains no spoilers.- Introduction -These 24 episodes are a prelude. A prologue. This anime is an adaptation of the light novel series. It is an excellent series nevertheless, in anime or light novel format.Unfortunately the light novels which cover the story after these 24 episodes, as of now, remain largely untranslated. The story gets so juicy after 24 episodes. But. But I'm getting ahead of myself. Let me start from the beginning.Ryner Lute and his friend Sion go to a military school for the poor and the orphaned. They train for war as tools for the nobels. The setting is much like Europe, multiple nations, multiple war fronts, and tension between all kingdoms/nations.The school is sent out on a mission. I won't say how it ends, for it would be a spoiler but it's not too interesting. In fact, it is rather predictable. The anxiety and constant fear of the red headed main female character gives it away.Ryner is arrested after the battle and is tortured for being an Alpha Stigma, a powerful magician-berserker. Sion is chosen to be the hero of the battle and the red headed female is released in exchange for Ryner's freedom. (The red headed female is such a minor character I can't recall her name.)Ryner spends years writing a thesis in regard to legendary relics of power. Sion, now king, discovers this thesis and spares Ryner from the death penalty (given automatically to Alpha Stigmas).From here Ryner meets Ferris, a bishoujo that is a demon with the sword -- and dango consumption.I think that's enough summarizing. Let's get into why this anime is so good.- Characters -Ryner and Ferris both have lazy and laid back personalities. Whereas Sion has a workaholic drive and endless ambition. This foil creates a fun and comedic atmosphere. Ryner and Ferris slack and Sion gets on their case for being such slackers. All three of these main characters change subtly throughout the anime, then at the end you can see the accumulation of all the subtle changes. It's drastic. They've changed. And it changes the relationship dynamic. Bonds are broken and bonds grow closer.In short, the characters are fun and memorable.- Plot -You won't be disappointed with the plot. There are political elements (corruption, struggles for the throne, crises, alliances), constant war (nations fighting against one another, major powers rising, weaponry), and how the characters play into these worldly events. The characters featured in this anime are major power players. The world moves around them in this anime. They are the strongest and they are the most powerful. The most powerful change the world.- Packaging -The packaging for this anime is rather nice. Individual slots for each disk, a decent box, and a small tarot card bonus for each Part. The special edition for Part I includes a red box inside with some neat character art, but both Part I and II have lackluster art on the outer boxes. Part I's special edition box's backside is akin to the DVD covers. The DVD covers feature main characters and also decorate the inside. They're alright. At least consideration was taken into decorating both the inside and outside of the DVD case (whoops, I forgot, I meant Blu-ray case). The DVD's/Blu-Rays are nothing special. Blue themed disks for Blu-ray, red for the DVD's. The art on both is just an Alpha Stigma symbol. Not exciting but it works.Can you tell by now? I'm sure you looked at the product picture and could figure it out. Part I and II are a combination of Blu-rays and DVD's. So you get to watch the whole series in either Blu-ray or DVD quality. Yippie. It's a nice bonus.- Quality -I won't review the quality aspect of this release. I don't have time anymore to watch the whole series again (for the third time) but I can tell you that it should be good. Come on. It's Blu-ray.- Thanks for Reading -I hope you found my review helpful. I really enjoyed this series and therefore put in my time for a detailed review.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Plays on european units as well.
*by D***R on May 12, 2012*

It is kinda pointless to write more about the story. The people before me have done that already although speaking from a personal POV I must say I really liked it. It is one of the few series that does not rely on pointless and idiotic fanservice with panty flashes and boob exposure.The set contains BOTH a DVD set AND a Blue Ray set so even if you haven't a blue ray unit you can still enjoy it until you can afford a BD player.Another good thing is that both the DVD and the Blue Ray set work perfectly on Region 2/B machines. In other words it will work just fine if you have a PS3 unit from Europe. (It works perfectly on my slim PS3 and my unit has official firmware and is not modded in any way to bypass protections and stuff.)The same goes for the second part of the set. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0071LEQ1A/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i01All disks will run on region 2/B machines.So for anyone still unsure I say feel free to buy it. You won't have troubles watching it.Small detail that I must clarify though. I am using an HDMI cable and HD monitor to watch it and it works fine. However I can NOT confirm it will work on old TV sets that can not support NTSC signal.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ but like many good anime this on fleshes out all the ...
*by K***R on November 13, 2015*

This series is a very interesting series....it has the typical anime arch types in it...but like many good anime this on fleshes out all the characters and also adds interesting plot twists and turns in it. Basically the new king who was a semi-friend of a man on death row....gets him pardoned once he is crowned king....and then sends him off to collect ancient relics that legendary heroes had...the king does this because the man on death row has a secret power that is considered on of the legendary weapons....which scares most people....and was the reason he was put on death row...because the previous rulers where afraid of him. Anywise the man then team up with the sister of one of the greatest assassins to do his mission she gets payed with dango a candied food product and the promise of excitement by the king....the reason the king hires her is aside form knowing her from a number of years ago...he asked to do it by her brother whom is possibly the greatest assassin alive....a semi payment tot he assassin so he will help the king with advice. Its a very complex story but also a real good anime.
