Well, as my first post in a bit, I bring you Druaga no To: the Aegis of URUK, an anime version of the Tower of Druaga, a long-timey dungeon crawler from Namco. We got the Fushigi no Dungeon version for the PS2 a few years back, and it serves as an enjoyable introduction to the roguelike genre for those of you scared off by the depth and inscrutability of nethack and Shiren.
Anyhoo, the important thing here is that it’s a laughable sort of idea to begin with, given that roguelikes as a whole aren’t exactly noted for their character and plot depth. And yes, I do know about Izuna, but that’s an exception rather than the rule. Upon further thought though, DnT: tAoU (God, I love acronym-ing things) might prove to be an enjoyable sorcery and steel hackfest, always a good thing for an old time Final Fantasy and DnD fan. The few vague hints I’ve heard about it seem to say that it’s not a turd either. Joy!
Also, enjoy the poster shot:
EDIT: Also, it appears that GONZO is more or less officially translating and subbing two of their shows, Druaga and Blassreiter, and is releasing them on a number of outlets. Blassreiter’s a solo GONZO project, so expect lots of CGI and boobs. Probably CGI boobs too!
