Commemorating the first collaboration between "Pazudora" and "Dragon Quest: Dai no Daibouken"! Akiba Research Institute's editorial department will examine the appeal of the "Dai no Daibouken" anime!

GungHo's puzzle RPG "Puzzle & Dragons" for smartphones will hold its first collaboration with the anime "Dragon Quest Dai no Daibouken" which is currently airing, starting today, August 30!

To commemorate this event, we would like to talk about the charm of "Dragon Quest Dai no Tai no Boken" once again.

Dragon Quest Dai no Daiboken" is based on the nationally popular RPG "Dragon Quest," and the original comic was serialized in "Weekly Shonen Jump" (Shueisha) from 1989 to 1996, after being published in two separate issues, It is truly a masterpiece loved beyond generations.

The story is based on the world of "Dracula" and boasts a high level of perfection as a battle-based boys' manga, It gained popularity as one of the signature manga supporting the golden era of JUMP.

Many of the spells and special techniques that appeared in the manga have been reimported into video games, and it can be said that the manga had an extremely influential role in the history of "Dracula.

When I first saw the news that this work was to be adapted into an anime again, I was very excited! When I first saw the news that this work was to be adapted into an animated series, I was both happy and excited, thinking "Yay! and "Really? I was one of them. I was one of them.

Dai no Daiboken" had been made into an animated TV series in 1991, but due to the TV station's programming, it ended at the very halfway point (about one third of the way through the story, up to the battle between Dai and Balan). The first anime version (referred to as the "old version" in this paper), which was mostly faithful to the original story with some original anime episodes, left fans with beautiful memories and the trauma of the final episode, which was cut short due to adult circumstances, leaving a love-hate relationship. Considering the fact that a toy of Rahalt, which was erased from existence in the old version, was released, it is evident that the end of the broadcast was a very sudden decision.

Now, "Dai no Daiboken" has been animated once again, and there are three key points in this animated version (referred to as the new version in this paper).

The first is that it is "an anime adaptation optimized for the age of 2025. Even before the new version was broadcast, it was stated that it would be animated until the end of the original work, and the latest episode, episode 44, has finally reached about 40% of the total. It will probably be animated over a period of about 8 cool episodes. This is truly a long-cherished wish for the generation that shed tears of frustration at the old version.

Also, the speed of content in 1991 and 2020 is completely different. If you don't pack as many episodes into one episode as possible at a fast pace, viewers will get bored and change the channel. ...... Perhaps in response to the demands of the times, the new version is a rebirth of the original comic. The new version is a rebirth of the original comic book, focusing on the episodes that cannot be missed, and making sure that the story is told in 30 minutes. The new version also seems to have been arranged in various ways, with a cliffhanger ending that makes you wonder what will happen in the next episode.

Here, an avid fan of the original story might complain, "This is a revision of the original story! However, the arrangements in the new version seem to have been made in a way that is very well understood, and perhaps because of the love for the original work, there have been no major complaints on social networking sites.

One example of this is the case of Maam, who has changed her costume to a martial artist, whose leotard-like costume in the original version had bare legs but was changed to black stockings in the new version due to compliance issues. When the design was first announced, the real-time generation booed the new costume, saying, "We wanted that sexy costume! But when it finally appeared in the anime, the production team's persistent efforts to bring out the best of Maam's charms, even to the limit, came out. This is it!" and many fans were left twirling their palms in delight.

Other features unique to the new version include the fact that each scenario writer is in charge of an episode at a time (e.g., Katsuhiko Chiba was in charge of the Romos Kingdom Arc from episode 1 to 9 and the father-son battle between Dai and Balan, and Katsuyuki Kumazawa was in charge of the Hyunkeru battle from episode 10 to 13). ) This approach seems to be working well so far, judging from the scenarios that have been arranged in various ways, both large and small, without any breakdowns.

Secondly, I would like to mention the splendid voice actors. Atsumi Tanazaki as the main character Dai, Ai Furuhata as Gome-chan, Toshiyuki Toyonaga as her best friend Pop, and Mikako Komatsu as Maam are all stable young to mid-career members of the initial party. The members who join the party from the middle of the game are also solid in terms of popularity and ability: Saori Hayami as Princess Leona, Tomoaki Maeno as Crocodine, Yuki Kaji as Hyunkeru, Takahiro Sakurai as Avan, and Kazuhiro Yamaji as Matliff.

The enemy Demon King's army is also well represented, with Tomokazu Seki as Hudler, Takehito Koyasu as Mistburn, Hiroyuki Yoshino as Kilburn, and Mitsuo Iwata as Zaboella, all of whom are recognizable for their strong voices alone.

For old fans, the high point is that Mr. Toyonaga, who plays Pop, gives a performance that one can only assume is out of respect for Keiichi Namba, who played Pop in the old version.

Finally, I would like to mention the stable drawing. No matter how great the scenario or acting is, it will all be ruined if it is animated with disappointing drawings that are different from what you remember! In this respect, the new version maintains a surprisingly high quality screen and can be watched with confidence every time.

In this way, "Dragon Quest: Dai no Daiboken" satisfies not only old and new "Dracula" fans, but also those who love battle and adventure anime. It is also currently being distributed by various video services, so we hope you will start following it now!
