Galerians: Rion

Anime Review

From , former About.com Guide

Dominated by a computer with delusions of godhood, Earth's population has been enslaved by Dorothy, a genocidal computer. Only a viral program developed by her creator can emancipate the human race, and only one of Dorothy's own superpowered Galerians holds the key to unlocking the code and destroying the human who carries it! Rion is dispatched to find his childhood friend Lilia, daughter of Dorothy's creator. As he uncovers the truth about himself and his origins, he is forced to battle not only the Galerians - but himself.

If you like anime, sci-fi and a dark storyline, you're going to love Galerians: Rion. Fashioned after the Playstation game of the same name, Galerians takes us through the story of Rion, a young man with a sketchy memory and incredible psychic powers.

The year is 2516. The store begins with our hero, Rion awakening in some sort of testing facility. A voice calls to him. Scared, afraid and ever so distant but he can hear it nonetheless. As he regains his bearing, the lab is destroyed and Rion is instantly surrounded by guards who want to stop him from leaving. Where is he? And more importantly, why is he here? His head hurts. He can't remember. Who is this girl that keeps calling to him?

Galerians: Rion is a dark and chilling anime feature with brilliant Final Fantasy style animation, a kickin' soundtrack and a downright creepy storyline. A production of Image Entertainment, Galerians: Rion is a full 70+ minutes of intense action and mystery. If you haven't already added this one to your collection, do so now. Its definitely an anime keeper.
