Utawarerumono – Episode 2

Apr 16 2006 Published by Mina under Utawarerumono



First of all I have to admit I had preferred the soution of keeping the “An-chan” instead of giving him a name. It brings him closer to the village society, but somehow it would have been more special without this gesture.
This episode made me think a lot. The death of the forest king gave me goosebumps and I wonder, wether it was right to kill it. I understand if it is some kind of goddess it’s not right to be angry about a destoryed altar even after it’s fixed. So I come up with the question wether the tiger was really some kind of goddess…if it was, can the villagers live without it? Can the forest survive? What about the baby. Is it right to kill a mother, even if you care about the child afterwards…
Perhaps all this killing will have influence on the story and was not only a way to integrate Hakuoro into the community.

Utawarerumono – Episode 1

The first episode of Utawarerumono (whoever invented that name must come to Bavaria and try to say funny words like “Oachkatz’lschwoaf” which means tail of a squirrel ^^) left big impression on me. It was time for a good fantasy show after the disappointment of Izumo and after already watching two episodes I dare to say this will propably be one.
I was suprised by the nice opening, the character design (eruru is just too cute) and the interesting story, about a nameless man without memories who wears a mask he cannot take off. This looks promising, especially the character of Nuwangi caught my interest. He behaved like a spoilt little boy, but still he seems to like Eruru. I’m interesting wether he will come to senses in the further storyline or turns into a diabolic villain out of disappointment and sexual unfulfillment ^_~
