Dragon Quest: Dai no Daibouken

For all those who grew in the 90's and watched the first version, this is a love letter for us, I cannot begin to tell how happy I am this remain loyal to its original story, it's like being a child again, what a sweet taste in our hearts.

It's seeing back in time and yet something new Animation is gorgeous Clearly this was made with so much love.

As we for RPG lovers dragon quest franchise comes to life, stronger than it was.

Give it a chance I assure you, won't be disappointed Every battle is a thrill you just wish to live in it and be part of this world.

It's an anime that lives up to the greatest ever existed.

I swear this anime is way too underrated and doesn't have enough recognition. People are missing great storyline and wonderful animation. You have to watch it.

I love this anime, its like playing the whole Dragon Quest RPG created into anime. I hope they will continue creating other sequels of Dragon quest anime providing these quality animation and quality story.

Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai is a Japanese manga series written by Riku Sanjo and illustrated by Koji Inada, based on the popular video game franchise Dragon Quest. It was serialized in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump from October 1989 to December 1996, with its chapters collected in 37 tankobon volumes. A prequel manga series began in V Jump in September 2020 and a spin-off manga began in Saikyo Jump in October 2020.

Dragon quest the adventure of Dai is an excellent story and manga, no doubt. Strong characters, plot, and quite entertaining. It is early to judge this re-make of the original anime. But watching 6 episodes so far, I feel this new version lacks the dark atmosphere that surrounded evil characters in the 1991 version. The battle between Avan and Hadlar, for example, felt darker and more serious in 1991 than 2020. I found the music in 1991 so far superior, which adds to the 1991 version. The new version (until first 6 episodes) is a bit rushed as well; several parts which gave momentum to plot are skipped. That is not to say the new version is bad; animation is still superior to 1991. Also, the rush is probably to catch up quickly with where the manga originally stopped. I hope they pace down at that point and include more of the details which made the story great.

Good series whose style reminded me a lot of the first season of Dragon Ball with which shares both strengths and weaknesses in many ways.

With the levels of power it remains much more contained than Dragon Ball even if at some point at the end something a bit like in the Naruto series gets out of hand.

Apart from this the series is the faithful repetition of the manga so there are no surprises or substantial changes. The characters are well made and are not stereotyped even if they refer to archetypes of the genre.

It is a series done well, certainly does not shine for originality but considering that the manga from which it is based is from the 80s it can be said that it has withstood the passage of time in an excellent way.
