If you want to see a preview of the Ragnarok Online Anime, go here

http://www.animate.tv/pv/detail.php?...&m=p&tid=&rid=

You'll see two dark blue buttons towards the bottom of the page
Click on the right hand one if you have broadband, if slower, the left.

BTW, the music was taken from the COAL DUNGEON, right?

From the preview, it gives me the impression of a cutesy RPG with the two leads becoming romantic duo. Like one of those anime that would be turned into a cartoon for Fox Central or Kids Central or something...

Bleh... most of the chara design looks rather crappy to me

They really did a poor job there.

I'm an RO fan too.. so much so that I can't play it because I would never get anything done.

Anyway, yeah.. this show looks pretty innane. Unfortunately. The game's lots of fun.. but the anime seems to be sticking to one style, where one of the coolest things about the game is that if you want a different atmosphere, different look, different pace of music, you just go to a different area. Anyway, there's no story to Ragnarok Online, really.. all of the fun lies in game play. So if they're just making an anime based on the name and the designs and hoping that fans of the game will be fans of the anime, this is going to really suck. :/ But I suppose there's no use calling it crap before it's even out, now, is there?

And yeah, that music at the first half of the trailer is the music from Coal Mines.

Yeah Moonphase said that, but from what i saw from other articles, this is most likely a G.D.H international project (similar to Kaleido Star), and a joint project with Korean animation studio G&G Entertainment (which also worked on Kaleido Star). G.D.H. is Gonzo's parent company and Gonzo Digimation will probably be doing some animation like for Kaleido Star, but it's not really the GONZO that we're familiar with (the one that works on the sci-fi and action anime).

BTW apparently Myung-Jin Lee is directly involved with the anime (he was the original designer for the game I believe, and he also worked on the Ragnarok manga [or manhwa since its Korean])... He's the chief superviser (director) actually. Which is rare.
