Where the original series is very focused on politics, battlefield strategies, and power dynamics between people, the reboot directs the spotlight onto subjects like witchcraft, torture, and the importance of religion in medieval times. Although the series can get pretty dark, Berserk is hands down one of the best medieval anime you can find.

The anime is licensed in North America by Funimation as Grimgar, Ashes and Illusions, while J-Novel Club has acquired the rights to publish the original novels in English and Yen Press published the manga adaptation. The story begins by showing a group of novice adventurers battling goblins in a forest.
In short: should I watch 'Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash'? No. There is no payoff that's worth enduring flat, shallow characters who are also offensive for no reason. But it is such a shame and such a pity to see so much talent and such an interesting premise thrown into the garbage by repellent and outdated tropes.
One such character is Haruhiro, who is the main protagonist in this anime. At first, he doesn't seem to be anything special, but he becomes stronger and more reliable over the course of the anime, which makes him likable to characters and viewers.
As of now, there hasn't been a peep or two of a potential season 2 for Grimgar Of Fantasy And Ash.

HaruhiroHaruhiro. Yume has said that she views her group as her family, and she loves Haruhiro like an older brother. Her upbeat, positive personality is a perfect counterbalance to his reserved, pessimistic one.
Volume 10 ends with her attempting to tell Haruhiro that she loves him before she dies. Through extraordinary circumstances, Merry is revived in Volume 11, much to Haruhiro's delight.
The original Grimgar light novels were created by Ao Jumonji and Eiri Shirai, with the series still ongoing. It also got a brief manga adaptation that ran from 2015 to 2016, with Season 1 of the anime running throughout 2016. Since then, however, all has been rather quiet on the anime front.
After twelve weeks of guilt, grief and gratuitous gluteus maximus, Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash has come to an end.
While the show has not been officially canceled, there has been no confirmed news about No Game No Life season two, leaving the fate of the anime up in the air.
"Grimgar is special because its story is very realistic unlike the other RPG anime!" I think there is a fine line between realistic and different. A different approach doesn't mean the title is going to be good and this is what people tend to be missing....Reviews.Overall8Animation9Sound9Character8Enjoyment91 more row

Grimgar (グリムガル, Gurimugaru) is the name of the high fantasy location set in Hai to Gensō no Grimgar. Grimgar is the name of the landmass on which most of the series takes place, but heretofore the Red Continent discovery, it was also the name used by its inhabitant to refer to the whole world.
As the son of Satan, Rin Okumura has unfortunately inherited the unique blue flames of his father that make him a target for fellow Demons and Knights alike. These flames aren't used an insane amount of times, as they usually serve as the backdrop for Rin's battles, but they are still a part of him, and he can manipulate them at will.
Natsu Dragneel, the endearing/annoying fire mage , is not only the protagonist of Fairy Tail but he also has one of the closest relationships with his element of choice. Unlike other fire mages in these stories, Natsu uses Dragon Slayer magic. Consequently, he can consume his element of choice to replenish his own reserves.
Luffy. Both of them use this Devil Fruit since Sabo takes up the mantle after Ace's tragic execution. The Mera Mera No Mi is a Logia-type Devil Fruit that allows its user to become flame itself. It creates what seems like a near-infinite supply of fire and makes the user immune to normal damage.
The way these powers manifest is always different, whether its Quirks, Stands, or Devil Fruits; however, one power that routinely comes up and is always powerful is the ability to control fire. These types of powers tend to be visually spectacular and impressive.
Mereoleona is the great Lioness of the Magic Knights, the strongest female in the series, and also the temporary captain of the Crimson Lion squad. She seems hostile at first and absolutely does have a short temper, but that aggressiveness is usually just a front for her deeply empathetic and understanding nature.
Hiei of the Evil Eye is one of the main characters in the classic series Yu Yu Hakusho and also one of the most interesting of the main cast. Hiei is compared to Vegeta a lot of the time, and while that comparison is apt, the former arguably has a lot more going on.
As such, Endeavor takes top prize for his appearance as a fire user, as he literally decks himself out in the flames he uses, complete with a fiery beard that makes him a very difficult character to cosplay.
Fear, survival, instinct. Thrown into a foreign land with nothing but hazy memories and the knowledge of their name, they can feel only these three emotions resonating deep within their souls.
