Record of the Lodoss War Info
by ikelley@sas.upenn.edu Record of the Lodoss War is one of my favorite fantasy anime titles. It involves the adventures of a young man named Pern and his five companions. Pern is from a small village and after a harrowing conflict with goblins is sent out to find out what is going on in the outside world. Pern and his company discover that a war over the island of Lodoss between the nation of Marmo and the country of Valis is about to break out, and they soon find themselves involved in the conflict. However, Marmo and Valis are not the only two forces involved in this battle, and these third parties' involvement provides plenty of plot twists. A great story, well-developed characters, excellent casting, and beautiful artwork makes this one of the best anime series out there. Record of the Lodoss War in English There are currently several versions of ROTLW subtitled available. There are two fansubbed versions, one done by the Lodoss Warriors, and another set, although I've forgotten who released them. I have the beta version of the Lodoss Warriors, so they are somewhat incomplete, with some lines and words missing, but all in all are not bad, aside from a few questionable translation styles, such as making Karla speak in "thee and thou" English. Also, at the time of this writing, U.S. Manga Corps has released their first tape commercially, with three episodes on it. I've never seen them, so I can't effectively evalute them, but I've heard that they're pretty good. Record of the Lodoss War Character Descriptions Here are some descriptions of some of main characters of ROTLW. I'd really like to have some pictures here too, but my file quota is already killing me, I have no pictures to scan, and my meager number of Lodoss gifs/Jpegs don't have any good character shots. A few quick notes on the romanizations I used; Lodoss is another one of those series with hotly-debated name romanizations. I took some of the romanizations out of Newtype Magazine, a Japanese anime magazine, (one of the best too!) and the rest I gave my best shot at. Just keep in mind that there are other possible romanizations too, none of which are "right" or "wrong." Pern The main hero of the series, Pern is a young man who leads the main party of heroes. Exiled (sort of) from his home town, he goes out into the world to find out what is going on on the outside. Pern is very brave but doesn't always think before acting which often gets him into trouble. He wants to become like his father, who was a knight that served under the king of Vallis. However, he is not all that skilled with a sword (at least to start with) so he overestimates his abilties. Over the course of the story, he gets much better with his weapon and becomes very skilled. Eto Eto is from the same village as Pern, and is a childhood friend of his. He meets up with Pern again after having gone off to study to be a priest of Falis for four years. He joins Pern on his journey to gain more experience and to use his healing skills whenever needed. He is not as brash as Pern but is about as inexperienced. Gim Gim is a dwarf warrior who joins the group during a goblin raid on Pern's village. He had been at Pern's village to visit Slayne, and to try to get him to join his own quest. Gim has his own reasons for joining Pern's group; he is trying to find Leiria, a daughter of a high priestess friend of his. Leiria once saved his life and he feels indebted to her. Eventually he dies in an effort to save her. He is a good fighter with his axe and trains Pern a bit at the beginning of their Journey. Being a dwarf, he pretends not to like Deedrit, but really doesn't dislike her. He is somewhat of an solitary character, not liking to accept help from others. Slayne Slayne is a magician from the same town as Pern and Eto. Although he has lots of potential, he is not all that experienced a magician so he cannot cast a great number of spells, and those he does cast weaken him quite a bit. He didn't really want to join Pern and the others to start with, but Gim talked him into it. Slayne is a very quiet character, but is very intelligent, and can make good decisions quickly. Deedrit Called "Deed" for short, Deedrit is a solitary elf who joins up with the party after helping Pern and Eto avert the total destruction of their town by goblins. She fights with a sword but also can summon elemental spirits and use their magical powers to helps her. She likes Pern, but gets irritated by the fact that he constantly ignores her. She doesn't get along too well with Gim, as they often trade sarcastic remarks about how elves/dwarves can't do anything right, but she really does like him though. It can be said that Gim and Deedrit's relationship is one of mock enemies. The enemy nation has a secret agenda for her, which sparks the final conflict. Woodchuck Woodchuck, "Wood" for short, is a thief who meets up with Pern's party in a castle dungeon. When the castle is beseiged by Marmo it is destroyed and he joins the party. He has a particular fondness for material wealth but does have a strong conscience and is not just with the party to get rich. Although he may pretend otherwise, his actions show that he is concerned with the fate of Lodoss as well and wants to help the "good guys" win. Later on in the series, Woodchuck is possessed and separates from the party. We never do get to find out what happens to him. Sherise A mercenary soldier, Sherise was helping a town fight Marmo during the battle between King Faun's troops and Beld's troops. Thinking that Pern's group was from Marmo, she attacks them. After finally convincing Sherise and her companion Orson that they are not from Marmo, Pern's party leaves, but later Sherise and Orson join Pern's group to help them out. Sherise has a crush on Pern and is jealous of Deedrit because she gets more attention from him. Orson Orson is Sherise's companion and is a mercenary like she is. Normally a very quiet, introverted man, he is also a berserker. That is, he is possessed by the spirit Fury, and when in battle and angered, he becomes fantastically strong and attacks everything around him indiscriminantly. When berserk, he can do lots of damage with the large two-handed sword he carries with him. Orson is distraught at his possession and hates being a berserker however, and does not like having his battle fury brought out. Faun Faun is the king of Valis and is trying to unite all of Lodoss into one nation. He is also one of the famous "Six Heroes" of old times. While he has aged a lot since his hero days, he is still a very capable warrior, and has a powerful holy sword, which Pern eventually gets. He is at war with Marmo, (the "bad guys") the island nation that wishes to conquer all of Lodoss. The leader of Marmo is Beld, who although is Faun's archenemy is also a former friend of his, one of the "Six Heroes." Faun eventually dies in battle with Beld. Kashew Once a mercenary, Kashew united the nation of Flaim, and currently rules it. He is Faun's right-hand-man, and Pern's role model. HeZ |

Раз уж речь о Лодоссе зашла. А что это за фигня такая в конце серии, когда показывают карикатурные изображения героев, вкратце объясняя, что они в серии делают и как друг к другу относятся? При этом делают странные телодвижения, ака телепузики, по нескольку раз? Это я что-то недопонял, или это для детей 3-х летнего возраста специальное разъяснение???

Мне самому ничуть этот бред не нравится, и я его просто не смотрю, а сразу на новую серию перехожу
А изображения не карикатурные, а уменьшенные - чибики называется
