AICN Anime: Disgaea Give-Away

Column by Scott Green
If you are interested in winning a copy of Geneon's January 9, 2007 release of Disgaea - The Netherworld Prince (Vol. 1), send an e-mail to animecontest@gmail.com.
The 12 episode series features the anime incarnation of the cult Playstation strategy role playing game from the writer and studio that adapted the popular medieval warfare drama Berserk (Atsuhiro Tomioka and Oriental Light and Magic).
The irreverent quest opens when the demon Laharl is woken up by his vassal Etna to be informed that during his two years of sleep his father, the king of the Netherworld, died. Laharl's campaign to cement his position as the new Overlord is soon joined by a second companion, the angel Flonne who had been sent (too late) to the Netherworld to assassinate Laharl's father.
With human souls stuffed into franken-penguins, gamer humor such as an antagonist dubbed 'Mid Boss', and its strange take on the divide between good and evil, the Disgaea looks like a particularly offbeat fantasy anime.

I can say that this anime is fucking awful.
-
How the artists can make vehicles, weapons, robots, etc, look super detailed and realistic, but draw humans with freakishly large eyes, mouths, etc. The human characters in anime and manga have always kind of bugged me for this reason, but that's just my opinion...
-
in that I didn't like the anime, but I liked Disgaea the game. And played Makai Kingdom and Disgaea 2, but liked Disgaea more.
-
just wondering if I missed who won the Hellsing OVA contest?
-
I mean the gameplay is good, but it lacks a better job system (the reencarnation starting at lv1 again is just a pain in the ass), better music, and above all a good story. After all the hype, playing it is just lame.

I say we send them more Coke.

I am not interested in winning a copy of Geneon's January 9, 2007 release of Disgaea - The Netherworld Prince (Vol. 1), but thanks for asking.
