#ryner x ferris

I don't get people who bash Kagome and celebrate Kikyo. Like yeah Kagome uses the sit command, but it's a common trope in anime for female romantic interests to do. Besides Kikyo literally attempts to kill Inuyasha multiple times, so it's super hypocritical. Like it's fine to just say you like Kikyo more than Kagome. Everyone's entitled to their opinions and you can express this without trashing a character.

Point being. Both Kikyo and Kagome are complex characters with flaws and merits. Respect strong female characters.

The Legend of (the) Legendary Heroes

Is there a second “the” in that title?

Anyway,

“I offer up this contract to spill the salt contained within this post.”

I try to make a review post of every anime I watch and since I watched this recently I feel like it deserves a review tho it’s more or less dead.

Plot.

The plot was pretty interesting. You had me at the Hero Relics and the alleged cinnamon roll king trying his best to not be like the corrupt nobles before him. I even got more interested when said king ascended to the throne by episode three and I just knew it,

“The tragedy of Sion Astal!” I’m in!!

Except... not really

Characters:

Over the course of the show I came to love this guy! I’m sitting here like “Can he do it?” Even though I knew how it would go since i’m familiar with the trope, but still! Then the last four episodes or so throw some s**ty backstory of Lonely Demon X Mad Hero ship and it turns out good ol’ Sion is EVEN MORE special than just being a rightful heir to Roland. Like... I think i would have been happier seeing him fall on his own, not just because some stupid spirit thing made him do it, that’s Ryner’s deal,

Like you knew Sion was starting to stray away from his intended goal the moment this dude showed up.

But, back to the good stuff.

Ryner Lute is great.

He’s hilarious and he deserves all the naps. He makes me think of a Manakete from Fire Emblem, where he sleeps so much because it serves as a way to keep his Alpha Stigma power in check? That’s a headcanon, tho other Alpha Stigma sleep like that too. Hmm...

Yes, I did watch this show because it gives me massive Fire Emblem vibes!

I’m one for strong female characters but I gotta say I don’t really like Ferris’s personality. I mean I get it, you like the guy you’re traveling with and you feel the need to tell every woman he’s a perv so you can have him for yourself but, that joke got old.

I honestly find Kiefer to be better.

Iris is annoying

Lucil is scary

Miran don’t even get me started!

The World:

It’s beautiful. It’s actually really well built and very interesting. The conflict between countries is very realistic and it seems like Roland has some breathtaking landscapes. I’m sure other countries do too. There’s a map! Yes, I say this because every story about this sort of thing needs a coherent map and not everyone has them.

There are some things about religion too that were lightly brushed on during Arua’s arc.(?) How Alpha Stigma are treated by religious figures. We see Ryner struggling with the higher being’s purpose and his own existence and thrn...nothing *sigh*

So as much as I enjoyed the journey leading up to a stupid cliffhanger i think i have to still give this a low rating. It’s a story that could have been told in about 30-50 episodes. Focus more on the hero relics and why they are the reason Runa and Gestark(?) are invading, they’re obviously connected to the legendary heroes of old we hear from at the beginning so it really doesn’t need more omnipotent beings reincarnated as old school BFFs that didn’t speak for two years and weren’t that close to begin with.

Yes, Sion and Ryner share a traumatic experience where everyone except Kiefer died, but that doesn’t make you BFFs.

I love the characters I really do, but their stories do take a turn for the worse.

"I can do this. With her, I can do this!" I just...can't. Omg

Ryner and Ferris

[kaybkay8]

Otps

Otherwise known as those pairings that move your soul and define how you see love. In no particular order

1. IchigoxRukia

My first ever otp. They have the kind of understanding between them that I hope to find myself some day. They share more with a look than other couples ever manage to achieve. 11 years after falling in love with them they still hold a special place as ce in my heart

2. MeliodasxElizabeth

A more recent love. They have such dedication to each other that you can't help but to love them. To be honest I love everything about this series, and a huge part of that is the two of them.

3. RoyxRiza

The power couple you know and love despite it never being stated. She follows his lead, and makes up for where he fails. Their trust and loyalty are things to aspire for.

4. FerrisxRyner

A less known power couple. They both have tragic back stories in a cruel world, but with the others help those wounds heal. This is a really serious show, but these two stuck you in and you fall in love with them before you even realize it.

5. NamixLuffy

A more subtle pairing. These two have such a strong bond that it transcends normal relationships. Whether romantic or not, you know nami trusts luffy most, and that luffy will always trust nami and save her.

6. YoruichixUrahara

The two who define teamwork. They are equals who always appear together and work in tandem. Are they a couple? Who knows, regardless they have a relationship that makes you love them.

7. BanxElaine

The pair you just want to be happy. They both risk their lives for each other and the only thing they want is for the other to live.

I mean, she faced down his inner monster, he cried on her shoulder, and as they held each other he said he was home. Shared via TweetCaster
