Creator of Lodoss War to write Dragon's Dogma tie-in
Any story that gives me an excuse to post a picture of Record of Lodoss War is pretty much the best thing ever. Siliconera is reporting that first edition runs of Dragon's Dogma will ship with a short story written by Ryo Mizuno, creator of Record of Lodoss War -- a fantastic franchise that's known for a number of anime, game, and manga adaptations. Also, in a collaboration with Studio 4°C, the game is featuring weapons and armor from the hit anime Berserk, in honor of the new series of 2012 films (which I couldn't be more excited for). Right now both of these bonuses are only confirmed for Japan, but something tells me that it's likely the novel will make it to the west. If the Berserk bonuses don't end up hitting stateside however, I won't be able to help myself -- I'll have to import the game. Also, Deedlit.

Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)Oh my, Record of Lodoss War takes me way back. That show was a gem. Now you tell me that there will be new Berzerk anime too? Well bless my froggy style heart, I am excited. First Mahiro Maeda working on Sine Mora and now Ryo Mizuno is working with Dragon's Dogma?
Things just get better and better. I really dont know if ill buy this game but Record of Lodoss War and Berserk references make it more likely. This article just reminded me that I used to own the Record of Lodoss War DVDs in college and then I got robbed. I just purchased it again on Amazon. This article helped the economy. Record of Lodoss War is one of my favorite animes :). And there's a new Berserk anime? When did this happen? Damn. That was literally my very first anime - at least that I owned, of course there were the old shitty VHS bootlegs of DBZ that most people saw back then. Talking about legit, properly localized anime tho? This was it. Goddamn it I need to rebuy it now.
Wait what are we talking about? Dragon's Dogma, sure sounds good. Hmmm Resident Evil 6 demo, Sword of Berserk items and story by the Record of Lodoss War creator? Wow they know how to entice me... Speaking of Sword of Berserk, Sega!: bring back the classic Dreamcast beat 'em up pleeeeeease? I gave my copy to an ungrateful friend. :( OMFG, nerd boner gasm…my favorite D&D anime, fucking ever. Thank god for Jim Sterling, who made this happen. Ryo Mizuno also did the story for the Last Remnant, IIRC. Anyway, I'm definitely hoping the novella makes it stateside. 12:45 PM on 05.23.2013 This Toriko Gourmet ga Battle trailer is insaneThe four player brawler Toriko Gourmet ga Battle has a new trailer today, and it's pretty damn crazy.
