Bahamut World

The case takes place in the deep Middle Ages, where Joan of Arc leads her holy war. Angels and demons are everywhere, they are tempting heroes, they are helping them. In the taverns there is debauchery, and in the country bounty hunters and lonely strangers wander. The world of Bahamut is gloomy, but the costumes of the heroes are perfectly drawn. The monsters of this world are characterized by the same variety. The numerous bestiary of the picture "Rage of Bahamut: Origin" strikes with a highly artistic execution and originality.

Heroes

The main character of the film "Rage of Bakhamut: Origin" - a bounty hunter. A young man named Favor Leone finds lustful creatures of hell who subordinate women to themselves. By the force given to him as a hunter, he releases the unfortunates and places their offenders in a kind of prison inside the vessel.

The wandering heroine of Amir, in addition to her pink hair, did not differ either intellectually or wit, worthy of the main heroine, and the viewer can only look at her charms. Another character - handsome and winner Kaisar Lidfard, who, to the disappointment of the viewer, will not at least become wiser at the end of the story.

The plot of the series

Bahamut - the most dangerous dragon and the enemy of all living things - is imprisoned in a centuries-long captivity. Thanks to the union of gods, demons and people it was neutralized, but a new era for humanity is coming - the time of war, death and suffering.

The key from the dragon's dungeon was divided into two parts. One was taken into the store of demons, the other went to the gods. Several millennia later it turned out that part of the key, protected by the gods, was stolen. The seal on the dungeon began to stagger.

At that time the young bounty hunter did not think about the mortal danger until he met the young Amir. The girl hid that she is the possessor of the divine part of the key. All evil spirits and even the deity Bacchus begin to hunt for a couple. Along the way, they meet enemies and allies, but in the end they will surely get to the dungeon of the dragon Helheim and destroy the menacing danger to all mankind.

Unexpected zigzags, which now and then make the plot of the series, can confuse any, the most experienced spectator. Only by looking at the picture carefully and completely, you can reach its deep meaning.

Ratings and reviews

The series was a real breakthrough for those who are tired of teenage problems and cheap eroticism in the anime of recent years. This is a real adventure for an exciting view. Excellent performance quality returns the viewer to the first masterpieces of the anime genre. Anyone bored without business should pay attention to the work of the studio Mappa.

However, not everyone so positively assess the film "Rage of Bahamut". The sources of skepticism lie in the unpredictable turns of the plot, which does not allow to predict the success of a season. Some fans of anime think that only two first series are good. Skeptics should be reminded that anime does not mean a seriousness, and the presence of a huge number of jokes and jokes in the picture just makes it characteristic for this genre. In a word, the picture can be called a pearl in the world of anime.
