Legend of Crystania: The Chaos Ring - E01 

I'm 50+ and i like this kind of historical fantasy animés from the Lodoss verse , old school type where a good story comes first and action/violence is 2nd. Viewing this every 6 months at least .... ☝️😊👌

I remember being a 12 year old child seeing this trailer in the ADV ads and wanting badly to watch this anime. Geez 90's anime are classics! I feel bad for children today, because for us 80's and 90's babies, anime was a mystery to be discovered and understand, because it was new and exciting for us back then, now today there's tons of anime trash. Oh how I miss the Golden Era of Anime. #Nostalgia.

from the wiki "After Ryo Mizuno wrote the original seven novels of Record of Lodoss War, he went on to write a number of short stories and spin off novels. One of these was a four-volume novel series called "Legend of Crystania". The novels were planned to be adapted into a movie and an OVA series that would follow up on the movie and would wrap the story around Ashram, Pirotess and their followers. However, a number of problems occurred during the production process. One of the lead producers got arrested for some charges, the project was then halted, and before long the team was forced to rush production with a limited budget. The result is a series that is far too short to adequately tell the story how it was presented in four novels. The animation in some areas is great, whereas in others it is rather poor. The story presented in the novels could have made for a great movie and OVA, but has instead failed to garner much love from the average Lodoss fan."

Surreal fantasy. Each scen introduces something new without context or explaination. The story is driven by emotions and the viewer's own creativity to understand what's going on. Unfortunately it's also the reason why there are so may characters asking "What is going on?"

ah yes, back when the bigger the collar, the stronger the character

Interesting this has been recommended to me by the youtube algorithym

In 1986, it was the first time that a work was published as an introduction article of Table Talk RPG (TRPG) in PC magazine "Comptiq". The magazine replay of "Dungeons & Dragons" by this group SNE gained popularity to the world view, the story and the character as the series advances, and the result series became a favorable project continuing up to part 3 by changing the character. Sword World / Record of Lodoss War / Crystania, These three titles are stories by region of "Forceria".

just found this treasure today i will treat it with respect

beautiful.good characters.good opening song theme too.

This and lodosse war were both epic

A fantastic story start!

Epic opening

I love this movies...upload more

Holyshit! Record of the lodoss war and this anime are connected! They referenced the Black Knight aashram out the gate

Gannondorf really got around as an ominous bad guy

Both Deedlet and Pirotess ki da get screwed living pretty much forever in torment over their lost loves. Ashram is not really the Anti-Parn he simply viewed his rather harsh action justified by the preservation of his people, it was a grim hard life.

Its like they had an entirely different director for Sheru, god damn. Probably why her VA went to Hollywood over a decade later.

I love how insincere everyone sounds when they say thank you

Reminds me to Lunar series.

The only reason I remember this is "You have no reason for this!"

Dubbing has come a looooong way.

you would have to be a record of lodoss fan to really enjoy it. lol even though my friend loved lodoss when it came out but hated crystania but i love crystania =p

Sir Raedon is just another Parn

Ganondorf

How come the English voice actors sounds like they are being held at gun point when reading the script? 🤣

Now I know why dubbing has such a bad reputation in the US. Wow^^

9:22 Ganon?

Great one, thanks

Oh the drama.

This is about us. Pay attention.

not much to talk about but it was ok anime

Here for Perotesa

3:48 YES

4:02 is what you came for

I had no idea this was linked to lodoss war! Whoa!

this is base of game "chaos rings"

Did anyone else notice how the elf woman was white af in the opening credits but they made her black???

now i know why this was so confusing its a sequel to the movie also didnt really know about lodoss war or that this is connected to it

Pirotess observed a lot of the history of Lodoss, so it weirds me out when she doesn't correct the priest's pronounciation of the emperor's name, called Beld throughout his lifetime in other english dubs.

ganondorf

At 25:48 his. clothes heals as well what's up with that?

Okay well at least Ashram didn't die in the movie. That would have been a crappy way to go out.

So looking at some of the comments here i'm kinda wondering, should i watch Record of Lodoss War before this? or does this do a good enough job explaining what is going on?

Back when characters weren’t all kawaii

Is this supposed to be something from Record of Lodoss War?

My god the voiceacting is atrocious on this one.

where is Deedlit?

Good anime

Very D&D

i thought Pirotess perished in Shooting Star's mountian cave... how is she still alive?

I enjoyed the show despite the character design a few steps down from Lodoss Wars.

Ocarina of time

i like this

Psalms 37:12 The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth. Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things. Ephesians 1:13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,

This is the second movie by Costania. The first one is great. The second one better. The ending of Costania . What mean the out come.

the fug? 31:24 ? I was like half paying attention in the other tab and I come back "You're a butterfly too....." give me a break

would you happen to know if the DVD has the opening without the English captions? even better if it has a clean opening? i would like to remaster it

12/18/2020

When I saw this I was like "HELL YEA!!" Then I saw the first 3 mins..... Oh hell no! Should of double tap xD

Please please what is that ending song?

@11:29 GUTS

Lo podrías poner el audio en español o subtitulado ?thank you

wait that's the stuff they pulled off 6 years LATER? ugh...

What is the name of the anime

11.11.20

I would explore Crystania with mechanized army tanks and helicopter gunships

12:20

Just like lodoss war

You can tell this is a Ryo Mizuno joint but Lodoss OVA is mastery, granted could have used more animated frames. Don’t know what the hell is going on here and that dub is ass

best worst dub ever

dead dreams

kino

NO 29:54

Always bitter disappointment finding an anime I want to watch only to discover it's dubbed... 😥

That elf girl sweats a lot she needs some deodorant

Ohhh 😕 i wished there was more action in it. The story is good

Dont mean to offend anyone, and i do respect other people tastes, but i have seen hentai with better plot and drama, i mean this is some weak stuff, but i am gratefull that you uploaded it becouse if you are going to hate something at least see enough to form an opinion and 44 minuts of it was enough for me.

bro isso e muito ripoff de record of lodoss lol

I understand, like and respect the english language. That being said... english dubbed anime is cancer.

16:42 THIS IS WHY I HATE DUB SO FUCKING MUCH!

THIS ART SUCKS

UHG, what a generic story, its almost painful. :/
