You can't forget the Tales of Phantasia Adaption. They cut out a lot of the story, but in return we got a lot more background on everyone's favourite Tales' villain Dhaos. He really had some wonderful scenes, and I only wished that they were included in the game (Keep in mind that I haven't seen the fourth ova yet though).
Jam it back in, in the dark. |
The Shin Megami Tensei series also has a bunch of spin offs:
SMT: Devil Children (2000 - 50 Episodes) At the end of the 20th Century, the world is facing destruction from massive earthquakes, bad weather and other abnormal phenomena. In Tokyo, Setsuna Kai, a young boy who lost his mother when he was very small, practices Kendo every day because his goal in life is to become strong. As always, his rival Mirai Kaname defeats him and Setsuna feels sad. On his way home, a messenger from the Devil's World appears before him. This messenger proclaims that the various abnormal changes in the world are the work of the Devil. The world will come to an end unless the Devil is conquered. The only ones who can save the world are the "Devil Children." Thus begins Setsuna's adventure in the Devil's World. This is basically the only decent info that I could find on it, since it doesn't appear to be fansubbed by anyone (If I'm wrong on this, feel free to correct me). Shin Megami Tensei Tokyo Revelation (1995 - 2 Episodes) A satanic program is activated aboard a crowded commercial flight headed for Tokyo. It releases a swarm of invisible demons that send the aircraft plunging to a fiery doom. Everyone aboard is killed instantly – except Akito Kobayashi – owner of the devilish program and sworn ally of hell itself! Kojiro Soma, an old elementary school friend of Akito’s, is surprised to see him enroll back in school. Kojiro notices how this once lonely boy has grown into a suave and arrogant teenager. Later, when his classmates are attacked and the legendary demons return to stalk the streets of Tokyo, Kojiro begins to truly understand what his old friend has become. Akito has plants for the human race. The plans revolve around magnetite, the mysterious element that forms the living essence of every living human soul. Combined with his demonic software, a strong enough source of magnetite would release a plague of devils upon the Earth. That source exits in Kojiro’s class, but when the evil plan expands beyond even Akito’s grasp, it is Kojiro who must find the ultimate power within himself, and go head-to-head with the greatest demon of all! This has apparently be released in the US, although I can't understand why since it really is bloody awful. This is just milking the SMT franchise, and I really wouldn't recommend it. Persona (manga - 3 volumes) Now this is one that I like quite a bit, since it manages to catch the essence of the Persona universe. Kazumi is living a carefree life, when suddenly his best friend disappears. He goes on a search for him, finds him, but this so-called best friend tries to kill him with a Persona (some sort of manifestation of your soul), so Kazumi wants to find out the truth behind this behaviour, all while attempting to halt the destruction of Tokyo. I don't really know if this is based on the JP-only PS game, but I don't really care. You have everything you'd expect from Persona, the velvet room, Philemon, the red and black books, and even fusion spells. I found this rather enjoyable to read, although it's not that great if you're not that into SMT stuff. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
The Suikoden III manga is a mixed bag for me. The story is pretty solid, cant go wrong with that, and it's nice to get some background, but as for the art, sometimes it looks simply godly, but there are also pictures that look way to amateurish. Maybe it's just the french edition that I collect though, since the publisher's reputation's not that great.
As for Valkyrie Profile, get it asap. The story is as good as expected to those knowing the game, and the art is simply divine. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
