Apocalypse Tribe HQ _ Entertainment _ Xenosaga: the animation

Posted by: DarkEpyon Jan 6 2005, 08:47 PM

As some of you may or may not know, Xenosaga the animation started airing in Japan yesterday. The story takes place during the first game, so those familiar with the game would feel right at home. Not sure whether or not they plan to incoroporate ep2 into this series.

I loved Xenogears, How is the Xenosaga series?

What characters do they have? Please say Elhaym!

If you loved Xenogears, Xenosaga is like watching a feral koala kill your father and rape your mother.

I would recommend avoiding the games at all costs, and I'm pretty sure the cartoon will follow suit.

You mean that the Xenosaga I have at home isn't an anime?

.. oh. Xenosaga and not Xenogears.

o_o . .

Well, nevermind.

Yeah, I too wish they made one of Xenogears.

Xenosaga is a game you learn to appreciate when you bored with everything else out there. I hated Episode I the first time through. I started playing it over again a few months ago because I had nothing better else to do. I enjoyed it a lot more the 2nd round that I am going to pick up Episode 2 this year.

I didn't know there was a Xenosaga animation. I would be interested if it actually last long enough to go through the whole series.

Playing Xenosaga a second time around means that you'll actually understand what is going on with the story. I'm sure I would find it more interesting a second time around. But, ugh... I don't know if I could stomach playing through all those battles again.

I've seen up to Episode 6 now, and I like it a lot. Then again, I'm one of those freaks who actually liked Xenosaga Anyway, it's basically the game in anime form, but they tweaked the story a bit, but it's still fundementally the same. If you like Xenosaga, I'd reccomend http://animesuki.com/series.php/533.html
