If you want a more detailed breakdown of the various references then google it or ask me, but there's too many for me to put down here. There's also a smattering of Christianity in there as well, but anyone with half a brain will see those references fairly quickly. Even the names of some of the characters are taken from mythology, Arawn, Ogam, Llyr, etc, etc.
The numerous references to Welsh mythology that appear, like Dyrnwyn, Annwn, The Cauldron of Ressurection, amongst many others, are used in an extremely intelligent manner.
#WATCH TEARS TO TIARA ENGLISH DUBBED SERIES#
What impressed me the most about the series is how it plays about with mythology and history to create a story that is both flowing and understandable. Even the Divine Empire is a reference to the Holy Roman Empire. There is also a healthy smattering of historical references, from Londinium (the original Roman name for London), to Gaius (based on the Latin name for Julius Caesar). The creators have dipped heavily into Welsh Prydaic myth and Arthurian legend, as well as "The Chronicles of Prydain" by Lloyd Alexander (a series of five books that remain, to this day, among my top ten fantasy reads). Tears to Tiara is, quite simply, the proverbial dragon's hoard when it comes to references, both historical and mythological. Rhiannon's brother Arthur senses something wrong and goes to rescue his sister. Their purpose is to take the priestess Rhiannon, who is also the chief's daughter, and use her as a sacrifice to resurrect the demon king Arawn. A group of soldiers from the Divine Empire have come to a deserted village belonging to the Gael tribe. The story is set in a time very similar to the Dark Ages in Britain. The producers have done a remarkable job in that, if you haven't heard of the original game, you would have no way of knowing that it's based on one. However, don't be fooled into thinking that the show loses points because of this.
#WATCH TEARS TO TIARA ENGLISH DUBBED PS3#
The series, as I've already mentioned, is based on the PS3 game of the same name.
the end result is just a little bit special. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, and sometimes. If there's one thing that I've always loved about anime, it's the way that the creators take things that we know and turn them on their head. Instead, I mean the cultural, historical and mythological references that have been poured in, mixed around and served to the audience. this I don't mean the eroge that came before (although admittedly this version is based on the PS3 remake). I've been wanting to review this show because of the things that inspired it's creation, and by This one is no different, not because the show is actually good, or because it's well animated, or even because it has a good soundtrack. There's very few shows that have that effect on me, and almost every one is a special case. I have been itching (that's right, itching), to review this series from around episode 6. "There is no easy way from the earth to the stars,įire is fed by the wind and extinguished by the wind,
