From what I understood, there were two types of people, the snake people and the mountain people. The snake boy fell in love with the mountain girl, but the snake people were considered dirt by the "pure" and "holy" mountain people. She scorned him and he turned on his people and said something like, "When did we fall from grace?! When did we become like dirt?!" or something and kills them all. And don't compare every tragic snake god to Sasuke ... Don't you remember he was first a hawk?!
From Aomarine's tumblr: "His right eye has the ability to see a person’s ‘real name’, however as it can cause hallucination at the same time, it usually kept hidden."
I haven't listened to the Masinowa CD, but it (at least this song) seems to have more Japanese influence than Ristaccia. I've read the story, though, and it's pretty awesome. Nothing for me personally beats the Blind Justice chapters. I love a heartwrencher. (Although it's got a happy ending)
@bobfttw well by the looks of the video he kinda kills everyone and sets the village on fire, so he must have something more spectacular than just impure blood flow
You'd think people would have learned by now; be assholes to the cursed orphan child, wind up with a genocidal unstoppable doom monster force choking you to death. Don't be assholes folks or Notsasuke will come and stab you for Christmas.
he really wanted to save Kukaru but then he ended up killing him. Basically because a Turii is like a cancer to a Kagachin, simply by being near Malchut, Kukaru is dying more and more.
@wildflower256 The art is by Maya, but the group is the Epic of Zektbach. It's a series of songs and music videos following the lives of those in the mystical land of Aria Te'Laria, where the fate of the world is often changed by those who posses pieces of a stone of mysterious power, known as Ristaccia.
@Ifeedonjapanesehobos Well, actually, the part with Ido is about 60 - 70 years after the event he got rejected by the konohona girl. Gijiri power is, in fact, related to Ristaccia. The image in 0:28 - 0:33 where the people were worshiping the hexagon (symbolizing the Ristaccia). It's hinted that Ristaccia was part of the creation of the kagachin blood. The part about Ido is that he [Ido] sealed away the demon lair which Gijiri created in Wenkamui.
@sleepyschezo Actually, they were from different clans, it seems. The theory floating around the internet is that she shunned him, and in return he summoned his power from Ido, the wizard sealed away in Wenkamui, to exact revenge. His power does not seem to be related to Ristaccia, but none of this has been confirmed. Although, on the character page of the artbook, it says he usurps L'erisia somehow, perhaps his powers are even greater than Ristaccia?
@Ifeedonjapanesehobos The demon lair went out of control so Ido sacrifice his life to sealed the lair. This is the official information/translation of the first guidebook in the Ristaccia album. Just look in DA or around a bit, you'll find the information. ;3
This is just brilliant, I cant believe I just realize Gijiri had a video, I wish Kukaru had one too.. Anyways, I think I just raped the like and favorite button
Spoiler (from Drama CD)------------ Actually, he was trying to save Kukaru while Malchut was indirectly killing him by being his side day after day. Kukaru = Half Kagachin. Malchut = Turii. And basically, Turii =/= Kagachin. And the main reason why Gijiri was so desperate to save Kukaru is one of the biggest spoilers/irony in the story (will not say but google it up, you'll find it). ;3; But basically that's the gist of it. And pretty much, most of us knows how that turn out in the end. Q____Q
@Nuclearlolz Are they really that similar? I've never watched Naruto (save for a few random episodes on TV) before, so I wouldn't know. Kinda makes me want to watch Naruto now. D8 But Gijiri will remain eternally more awesome that Sasuke. Sorry, Sasuke.
Hopefully someone will still read this.. but where can I read the WHOLE story about all characters? Because I only know the backgroundstories of some of them but I still don't know in how far they are connected. 😅 (I also wasn't able to find a useful link or something like that so far)
Google translate it... I remember having to do that a while back in order to understand the original website. saiyanserenityv.wix.com/zektbach There was also this website that I linked that I used back in the day although I don't think it has been recently updated with the newest chapter. It's very well made and it appears that it still works. It's called The Epic of Zektbach for the English speaker.
I find Gijiri's story to be pretty interesting, but I still have questions. When does "Gaiden" take place in the Epic ? After the showdown between the survivors and L'erisia ? I'd guess before. So...when ? And where's Ristaccia ? Is Kagachi one of its embodiments ? And what happens to Gijiri after he sets the village on fire and flees ?
Timeline-wise, Gaiden took place before Chapter 1 and after Prologue. A ristaccia piece is in Gijiri's sword, the jewel is just not visible like the other swords. The Kagachi bloodline is merely one of the many after effects of Ristaccia intervention (technically, many things/events are). After burning their home village, Gijiri and Minawa/Ido (the vid doesn't show him) create Sazaragi, Ido died at the the Wenkamui event, Gijiri took over one of the main power houses in Masinowa, and then we eventually have the Turii chapter.
blara2401 Excuse me, where do you get so many information? I'm interested in the series, but apart from the videos on youtube I can't catch any source material ;__; so I have no clue about the rest of the story... where does it come from? (Is it some drama CDs? Are they only in Japanese?)
SahelMelis Indeed there are drama CDs...but the best way to get the whole story is from excellent compilation vids from a channel which name I just can't spell...search for the vid called "The Epic of Zektbach - Ristaccia Prologue".
This is based on a series of songs turned into story pvs. The base of most of them are behind a great power that causes misery. (Blind Justice, Zeta, Dirge, ect.) I'm guessing that the boy inherited the power in this one and that he was shunned out of his village, including the girl he love. In return her burned it down. But I dunno how it relates to the original.

つまりドラマCD手に入れてね。
時は立ってるのに色褪せない神曲
久々にドラマCD聞いたんだけど、子安のギジリ合いすぎててニヤニヤし続けちゃった

ここで描かれている橋はおそらく錦帯橋。
錦帯橋のある山口県岩国市では、国によって白蛇が天然記念物に指定されており、実際に錦帯橋の近くには「岩国シロヘビの館」なるものがあり、同じ岩国市には白蛇神社も存在する。
白蛇を神の使いと崇める文化は数あれど、岩国市はとりわけ白蛇と縁が深いということで、この曲のPVの一幕として錦帯橋が描かれたと考えられる。
昔めっちゃ聴いててふと思い出して聴きにきたけどいつ見てもこのストーリー悲しい😢でも好き
1:24で一瞬見えるギジリ兄さんの笑顔が可愛い。もともとは素直で優しい少年だったのかな・・・？

@XxPrincessFallenxX Thanks a bunch!

Giijiri's was on purpose, Shamshir however was an accident.
Idk about you guys, but if these group of people can summon some dude called "The Snake Lord" I will not DARE mess with them.

i wish there was some sort of manga or anime for this..

What are this guys powers, impure blood flow? or is there more?
Where do you watch the movies and stuff i looked everywhere XD
@XxPrincessFallenxX Is there any way to get the full story?
U're right! >:(
@StelmariaonE7 I LOVE YOU. -cries- YES. THANK YOU.
これ12年前なの。。。？？？
ｳｿﾞﾀﾞﾄﾞﾝﾄﾞｺﾄﾞｰﾝ!
I read the description and all, but I'm a bit confused. I know the clips are from The Epic of Zektbach, but is the name of the song also Zektbach?
no, the name of the song is 蛇神, read as Kagachi, literally meaning "Snake God".
@SuperStarfire88 Its Part of an animated story
I think i got here just as you were telling the ending of the story "The Ugly Barnacle" :3
Gijiri's story is basically just The Ugly Barnacle so you're not wrong lol xp
if only Yayoi Yula's voice included in this version... >_>
Gijiri~~~

Eh, alguém tem as letras das músicas do álbum masinowa?

Is there a piano arrangement?
Does someone have the lyrics for the masinowa album?
@SuperStarfire88 I ments all the Chapters
Reflec Beat from Konami got me here. Is this japanese religios mythology?
You've been with both?
He's the Orochimaru of Zektbach.

@SakuraOfTheSand It's Kukaru~ :3
本当にこれカッコイイです！！この音楽を日本史で言うなら織田信長、豊臣秀吉、徳川家康という天下人達の物語をそのまま現した印象があります
I forget why he killed Kukaru. I'm assuming there's a somewhat valid reason. Was it because he inadvertently released Ristaccia?
@AliceParade13 i LOVE your coment =D
@Nuclearlolz Are they really that similar? I've never watched Naruto (save for a few random episodes on TV) before, so I wouldn't know. Kinda makes me want to watch Naruto now. D8 But Gijiri will remain eternally more awesome that Sasuke. Sorry, Sasuke.
anyone can translate the texts?
This is awesome! Who did this and where is it from?
This is a Zektbach song
The animation is by Maya Takamura
These songs are from Beatmania IIDX
