Shining Tears X Wind

[Zati]

Inspired by Bud/Munsu, I'll create some other upcoming animes for the spring season. Here is a promising one that is based off the RPG game from Sega, and looks alright.

Episode 1 - Kyuu (http://datorrents.com/download.asp?id=19806&name=%5BKyuu%5D_Shining_Tears_X_Wind_-_01%5B9C82ACD8%5D.avi.torrent)

The first episode wasn't really good at all. I'm pretty disappointed, and I'm sure a lot are too.

No description yet.

I only created them because I had just acquiered a shitload of trailers from a private bot and I uploaded them to sendspace so that you guys could download them.

Anyways, this really looks sweet. It's apparently based on some PS2 game, and it seems to me that this may be this season's Utawarerumono. Got to love elven chicks.

I see, and yeah thanks for doing that with all those previews and trailers, so much to look forward to. Lol yes reminded me of Utawarerumono with those elven girls.

The Utawarerumono reference is indeed understandable when looking at the video. Looks good also otherwise. It should offer plenty of interesting characters as well.

But the music will have hard time beating Utawarerumono's score.

I don't know, the OP was pretty nice... The song started mellow and peaceful and I liked how the song kept building up to the action towards the later half of the OP, I thought the animation complimented it quite nicely.

Now, I'm pretty sure this is the OP for the PS2 game in Japan. Seems odd to me that it would be 3 minutes long.

I already played this game, and it was like an rpg/harem game, so Utawarerumono comparisons are quite justified I believe. I just dont know which ending they will use, since the game actually had multiple ones.

I just found a TIAF07 (Tokyo International Anime Fair) Trailer, hope this is the real one.

Looks interesting enough. might as well check out the first ep.

[Munsu]

First episode was more boring than I expected. The animation is not good, and the dialogue is very bad. I'll give this a couple of more episodes, but I don't have much expectations for it at the moment.

[AsclepiusZ]

I gotta agree with munsu. First ep was a bit full but ill give it a few more eps before i formulate a final opinion.

[Hiwatari]

i was pretty disappointed with the resolution of the episode provided by Kyuu...the lines demarcating the drawings seem a little jerky...

Yeah I've played it too... Wasn't that great but the drawings were nice... But is this anime following the games story? So far it looks like it's suppose to be a sequel to the game or something.

Anyways... Just finished the first episode and it seems a bit weird so far. Hopefully the next few episodes clear things up.... The animation seemed ok to me... I don't know why some people are complaining so much.
