Has anyone seen the extra from the second DVD yet? The thought of seeing Isara in a yukata makes me feel all fuzzy inside...

KariOhki · 2009-09-19, 19:53

It's about 10 kinds of cute :3

*rubs eyes* Wow, is that Isara? That redefines adorable.

Wish I could find this extra online...

The stew aside, that is one good-looking Isara.

Well it's not so much the anachronism but the fact that a matsuri is being held in a European-like setting.
I bet it's a Darcsen tradition!

It's supposed to be cute and it works at that.
Now that we had the staple beach and matsuri episodes the next bonus will be a hot spring one.

Haven't seen it, but I am still waiting somebody to put this on the download area if any.

Culture issues aside, anyone know how long the bonus is this time around? Is it the same length as the beach one. and does it feel less... [i]shallow?[i]

KariOhki · 2009-09-21, 15:46

It's the same length of the beach one, and it's about the same quality-wise, though there aren't any chibi-characters. Lots of still shots, some motion, and a lonely Selvie at the end waiting for her prince :3

Rest assured this is an omake for the anime. It never appeared in the game.

Then again, cross cultural reference in anime is not uncommon.

Unless Sega decided to somehow feature a counterpart to Japan in a re-imagining of the first game. It was a well-known (and dumb) fact that in WWII, the Axis Powers had little or no co-ordination in their strategy. Maybe, in the world of Europa, thing went differently?

Also, trade was never adequately explained in the series. Was there trade with the rest of the world? If so, what about having a team of "Japanese" delegates in Gallia when war broke out? Or simply having some curious Japanese who found their way to that small village?

You are taking this way out of context. This was nothing more than a heehee-haha omake fan service, and should be left at that.

Not the yutaka of course, but the idea of another world beyond Europa. Call it a bad habit, but since we already have some semblance of this conflict being a racial war, why not expand on it? Not that I didn't recognise the yukata as fanservice, but while we're at it, why not have it actually making sense?

Tamad · 2009-09-23, 22:21

It just doesn't seem all that necessary to fully analyze something that was probably thought up on the spot for the sake of fan-service, but I wouldn't mind discussing the possibilities of other places outside of Europa; however, this thread isn't the right place for that kind of discussion anyways.

Moonsilver · 2009-09-26, 09:56

I guess it was only time before a Hans Plushie was released. Found it at http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10098698

Hans in the anime is pretty annoying because he get's to attend a party at the palace and appear on the battlefield, though i must say that is pretty damn adorable.
