Disgaea - Netherworld Chronicles

Wed Aug 5, 2009, 12:43 PM
Can't be bothered with a creative title this time.
Anyway, I finished watching the Disgaea, anime. An attempt at turning a 40 hour long game (one I'm intended to acquire as soon as I get a PSP) into a 12 episode anime. It didn't really work, however, it does have it's moments. Not to mention it has three lovable main characters, Laharl, a cute little brat who is also a powerful demon overlord, out to rule the netherworld, Flonne, am ultra cute little angel you just can't stay mad at, no matter how annoying she can get, and Etna. Well, Etna is my favorite, but for some reason, I find it funny if I just pin her name at the end. Trailing them on their journey, is a funny looking girly man (who is quite obviously, the protagonist's thought to be dead father), and of course CAPTAIN GORDON, DEFENDER OF EARTH. Their enemies include an evil human general, a band of bounty hunters, an evil ventriloquist bunny, with a life sized dummy, a scheming angel, with a VERY impressive mustache, and a woman who is most likely worlds greatest demon hunter. Or not. Oh. Did I mention there are also a bunch of penguins, dood?
Well, it's a cheap one. Sure. And most likely nothing special for people who have already played the game. For me, though, the characters made it worth watching.

Comparing to the game: They altered the "intro" a quite a bit, and added a two episodes that are not based on the game, and ditched the only "Filler" Chapter. They also moved lots of events around, and tweaked a elements to move the plot. Gordon comes in later in the game. The Bounty Hunter, or not, was a single Stage of a 5 or 6 stage chapter. The Game isn't as clear about Mid-Boss until later. They do give him one of my fav Etna lines in the game, altered slightly. The last episode in my view didn't go the game justice. It was a 12 stage chapter that the for the same events in the game, each stage moved the Plot.

One of the NPCs in the game talks about Multiple endings. The easy one is to lose to Mid-Boss.

Etna does all but one the Next Episodes in the game just like Anime. (Flonne does it.)

No nightmare, you were awake.
Therefore it is a tragedy.
