@@vzabimaru7648 there will be cold steel anime feature the northern war. I believe it took place between cold steel 2 and 3. And iirc its a movie for 2023 release
Well ... not really ... you could say Weissman's actions were actually independent of the curse. Though yeah, everything else that happened was because of the curse, lol.
is everything really comes down to this? From what I understood Ishmelga noticed Osbourne only after the events of Hamel took place and it wasn't exactly part of the plan, but rather inevitable turn of events. It also matches the Ash's case as he has pretty much the same trigger. On top of this Loewe was fighting due to the fact that nobody cared for aftermath of the incident and because higher ups covered the truth for peace offer.
@@Thuxo @CóupDeGrace Well as I understand it, while Weiss himself worked independant of the curse, the actions of those he guided (it's never confirmed if he could control minds back then) to cause the Hamel Tragedy were almost definitely edged along by the will of Ishmelga. Weissman's quick mind fucks, like we see in Richard and Kurt, do not completely rewrite a person's personality, they only muddy or amplify a thought/process. IE: Wiping Weissass from Kurt's Mind, and amplifying Richard's zealous love for the country to make him persue the Gospel/First Seal. Ishmelga is well implied to have been active through Erebonia's history, pushing events at a far more minor scale than he could up until possessing Giliath. Without a pilot, it's implied Ishmelga couldn't do much beyond subtle nudging. Weissass just helped open a pathway to allow Ishmelga to manipulate Lechter's father into the ultimate puppet to set off events (this is seen as true in CS4 when they go over a list of events in stills of things the Curse/Ishmelga has caused). The implication is ultimately such: Ishmelga took advantage of Weissass' manipulations of Lechter's father, but before having the Elder Arundel commit the Hamel Tragedy, struck out against Osbourne (who had warned Arundel not to commence his plans for Arundel's own sake) so that Rean would be injured and Giliath would be far more willing to accept Ishmelga, then reveled in the malice born of the Hundred Days War. Ultimately Weissass still is the ultimate architect of the Hamel Tragedy, Ishmelga simply took advantage to aim them shortly at Rean to finally gain more influence/power.

Spoilers th-cam.com/video/bv2veKYHb_M/w-d-xo.html The raw emotion in Loewe's face during this strike says it all. His childhood friend, the boy who likely would have been his future brother in law, and now a traitor to Ouroboros, is receiving the full hatred in that strike. This scene alone is why I'm glad SC got an animation. It shows how dedicated Loewe is to his mission and his reasoning. He's not letting any sentiment interfere with his questioning humanity.
The fact that the animation from this anime is better than several anime in 2020s kinda destroy my hope for new animes in the future And most anime nowadays just focused on harem or fanservice kinda makes me sick
@Florac battles in CS1/2 are still twice if not more entertaining, excluding the balance, which could've been better. Falcom's new engine could work, as I would definitely love to see updated character designs, as CS4 woke up that sense of nostalgy.
@Florac of course they are, moving from those rpgm-like sprites and outdated grid battle system are the main reasons for it. Also animations, they are still outdated but engine allows for way better detalisation and animations, which come with better POV. Of course CS1 was still ages behind other games in the graphic department, but they are not the reason we all play this game.
I wanted it to have a season through, if possible I want to upload everything in youtube, it's sooooo goooood. *o* In the game, you can only do it RPG style, but in this, their fighting are so intense. oAo
It's an OVA that adapts a game called The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky. Although you're better off playing the games since this was a horrible adaptation, while the games are amazing.
It's a 2 part anime based off of the 2nd game in a JRPG series that currently has 10 games, and 1 more scheduled to release this year. The games are incredibly long, and you can't really watch the anime without playing the games. That's not to say you shouldn't play the games, they are masterpieces of storytelling, its just that if your just into the anime, and aren't much of a videogame person, then it might be hard for you.

Even TitS was supposed to be just 2 games instead of three and Sen apparently got really out of hand. While I'm happy Falcom's writers are working hard, I would appreciate if the next story arc wasn't triple the length of TitS. Seriously, if the music wasn't so great I would have probably dropped out before the best part of Sen 2 or even before the final boss of Sen 1.
@@soralight_x Basically, Loewe is on the same level with Arios MacLaine, which means stronger than Cassius Bright when he first gave up his sword and used a Bo staff (basically the weakest of all sword saints), but weaker than Cassius Bright wielding a sword (could be on par with Victor S. Arseid at his prime), or Cassius Bright after 10 years of staff training (he even got himself a new ultimate move). Considering Loewe's age at that time (born S.1176, died S.1203, 28 years old at most), he could very well be considered the fastest "normal" human to reach "sword saint" level (although he reached Carnage or Shura (修羅) instead). The records showed him destroying the Order of the Moonlight Horse in S. 1197, which means he accomplished that feat at 21-22 years old. This might sound slow compared to Rean Schwarzer, but look at the conditions of the two: a) Rean got trained since childhood by Yun Kafei. Loewe madly chasing after power only after the Hamel tragedy, when he was 16 (in fact, after he joined Ouroboros, some time after that). And Arianrhod didn't especially go all out to teach him. b) Rean got himself a cheating power in his heart (and he was so scared of it). Loewe only got hatred and sadness. c) Rean has a whole empire backing him up. Loewe only got himself. Even at the end of Sen no Kiseki, Rean is still considered the weakest sword saint of all. Loewe was much stronger when he died. Even with the help of Cassius Bright, Rean reached sword saint at Sen 4, at age 20-21, only 1 year ahead of Loewe. If Loewe received Kernviter at the age of 21, then that would means they reached saint level at the same age.
