Tears To Tiara = Tears to Failure?


Arawn and his party of women, except for Arthur

The PC RPG eroge-turned decent PS3 game, Tears to Tiara had been recently turned into an anime, as the anime shows superb illustration, far superior to the original Tears to Tiara and better than the PS3 remake, it certainly looked promising while watching the several commercials before it was first aired on simulcast with Animax. Well, first episode like another eroge turned anime, Fate/Stay Night was kinda boring, but that was acceptable since it was the first episode. Anyway, with regards to the blog title, wonder why Tears to Failure?



Well, it's been running for weeks now, every early morning Monday, my sis and I would wait for the release of the new episode since Animax is kind enough to have subs already. Well, for 8 friggin' weeks, the story's like going NOWHERE!!! As in NOWHERE!!! The major failure of this show is that the story sequence is too friggin' SLOW! Every episode it's like "Hi Arawn, I'm *insert name here*, pleased to meet you and if it is possible, can i be your wife?", indeed a magnet he is for a lot of women, what can you expect from an anime which was an eroge originally. Well, anyway, even Tales of the Abyss which took me like more than 60 hrs. to play in the PS2 wasn't that slow in advancing in the plot. Heck, just earlier morning, when episode 8 was aired and came to an end, I was like "wtf, a total waste of 30 mins." Almost nothing happened in the 8th episode, just wish they'd make a little more progress like Sengoku Basara another game recently turned anime is really great in plot progression, no dull episodes. Well, only plus for the recent episodes of Tears to Tiara was the appearance of the kawaii Llyr and the beautiful Octavia.


Llyr as she appears in her first episode.

If there's any bonus I want from the series, it would be a batch of anime-based figure sculpsts since the Koto Tears to Tiara was patterned on the PS3 remake so, the girls doesn't look that great yet unlike in the anime rendition.
