Planet
R's beautiful existence is maintained by four magical Crystals, each controls
a different essential element: Earth, Water, Fire and Wind. Long ago, ominous
Dark Forces stole the Crystals and threatened to destroy the Planet. But,
the valiant heroes fought desperately, defeated the dark forces and returned
the planet to its peaceful state.
Two hundred
years later, the great fight has been long forgotten and again, three of
the Four Crystals have been stolen by the ancient evil. The young descendants
of the ancient heroes, Linaly and Prettz, are all that remain to protect
the Crystal of Wind from the evil forces.
But first, they
must get past Rouge, the leader of a leather bound army of female Pirates,
who wants to add the fourth crystal to her personal collection of treasures.
If the two can manage to escape her nasty clutches, they must still pass
through the many dangerous obstacles that protect the magical crystal.
Only the chosen one will survive the passage.... |
Review:
This anime
is a sequel to the game Final Fantasy 5, sadly this anime is not as good.
In fact
this anime sucks. First you have a vaguely Final Fantasy / Laputa
like story. Then you throw in robot aliens, all the female pirates
who dress like in leather underwear, a sickening number of panty shots,
and sometimes a glowing butt.
Animation
sucked, characters were mostly flat, the music was like bad FF remixes.
The best thing about this was the dub. I had rented both tapes (two
episodes per tape) but by the time the second episode started I was wondering
"Is it over yet?" I didn't even want to try the second half, It was
that bad, I was willing to waste the $2 rental charge by not watching it.
Avoid
it like the plauge. |
