Dragon Quest Legend: Emblem of Roto
The Zipangu arc felt like the author truly showcased their abilities.
>>1To put it nicely, that’s true, but if I were to say it negatively, it feels like the author just stuffed in the elements they wanted to include and the things they wanted to draw, right?
I’m not trying to say something about the worldview or anything like that.
Despite the serious content, the HPMP notation is clearly present.
>>2And he is surprised that MP stands for Magic Power, not Magic Points.
>>7I think it was from the game…
Combined magic is just too much of a romantic fantasy.
Fujiwara Kamui is a young talent.
Polon was too much for me and I didn’t like it.
I think it’s also because it’s a monthly magazine.
The number of pages in one episode is many, but
A Dragon Quest manga that is not often officially picked up.
>>8I think it’s being picked up quite a bit, just compared to Dai or something.
Every time I read the part where Tarkin dies, I cry.
Sometimes when I read it again, I’m surprised at how early Luna Flear dies.
Was it too dark overall for kids at the time to enjoy this?
>>12It was the same magazine that had the brutal developments like The Violinist of Hameln.
>>13It was interesting, wasn’t it, Hamelin?
>>12It was too dark, but since there are DQ 4-panel comics, it’s fine to read them with a changing mood.
>>12It was really funny whether I received it or not.
If you’re looking for the essence of Dragon Quest, there’s Dai, and both were interesting as manga.
I can feel the pen flowing all the way to where I’m about to lose to Jagang in Ariahhan.
>>14For better or worse, this leaves an impression that lingers too much.
It’s easy to understand the difficulties of moving when you can’t fly.
I want Toblerone here too.
>>15I can understand why that would happen, but the ground was split in half.
Ugh… I can’t go over there… This is definitely not a development that should happen in the final battle…
The hero will rise no matter how much you cloud their spirit.
>>16Hometown destroyed, parents exterminated! Lunafreya is dead! Teacher died in an explosion due to Megante!
By the way, the stone throwing from the residents of the town I’m trying to save is just a bonus, hey!
>>18Afterwards, they will be toyed with by the sword techniques of the hero who inherited the rightful equipment of the lotto and will end up being slaughtered.
>>20It’s all about things from around the ages of 10 to 15.
At that time, I feel like Gangan was targeting high school students as its intended age group.
>>19But it was really popular with elementary school students.
Oh dear, what a shame.
As someone who has read the Dragon Quest item story in the past, I found the lake’s gimmick for forging the orihalcum sword to be interesting.
>>24It was supplies intended for monsters, but the Evil Metal, which was clawed by humans, has a sad past…
>>24The Misty Magic State Lake
I like the flow of Alan from the turbulent bullying of Jagan.
It’s great, isn’t it? The Jagann battle where a magnificent hero faces complete defeat and reveals a pathetic figure.
That Jaggan was not only abducted from their parents but also trained in the art of killing, ultimately having killed their own father with their own hands…
The term “Roto-style swordsmanship” is already cool.
The outfit like Cell’s battle with Gohan in a black suit and white cape is also the best…
Although Arus is a hero, I like that everything about him, from his sword skills to his equipment, is not originally from Loto.
>>31The armor and materials are the same, but they’re all replicas.
Well, it’s not surprising if it is passed down as the armor of Ars in future generations.
That’s why Arus is a hero in spirit.
But after it’s finished, it’s so hero-like that there’s no mental space left…
Is that so?
I think they were still kind-hearted, ditzy, and surprisingly passionate even after coming back to life.
>>35It’s terrible that just by realizing and expressing my true desires, I get punched in the face.
>>35It was like that, wasn’t it?
The way the lottery’s inheritance is divided is rough or biased…
>>36There is the advantage of not having to deal with problems related to successors.
>>36One-third of armor color, sword, and emblem! One-third of the emblem! One-third of the emblem (it doesn’t look like an emblem)!
Since the resurrection of the otherworldly demon, Ars has lost the playfulness in his heart.
It’s unavoidable given the circumstances.
Give the protagonist a human heroine too.
>>41Yes… I made the TEA larger…
The original was good, but the sequel is too dark and the coupling isn’t what I wanted… so I stopped reading.
You don’t really need to read the sequel…
Too many original elements added to the foundation settings of the spell.
>>45I mean, it’s quite an extended period when I can’t use spells, you know.
Even with special skills, you need spells in Dragon Quest.
I like the way the patterns connect.
The dark side of the author’s personality has been emphasized in a negative way.
Hamelin, the good thread images, and Monsters, it was an incredibly dark magazine, Gangan…
>>49There were things like Guruguru, PONKIMA, and Kenken Neko Manken.
Hamelin was trying hard to make things lighthearted and neutralize the situation, right!
I like the continuation from around volume 20, but the development of the amnesiac and apathetic protagonist is just unreasonable! It goes on for too long…
I read the sequel all at once the other day, and I thought it might lose momentum if it were serialized, but it was still enjoyable.
I just found the reuse of Gorgon and Gnawn to be somewhat questionable.
>>52The Baramos Zombie has also been defeated…
>>52Gorgona had always thought it was strange for such an impressive spider of the underworld to be attached to a master like that, so it was good to see her appear alone.
I wonder what it is that makes the overall style so dark.
Is there anyone who has been to the solo exhibition I’m currently holding?
>>54I’m thinking of going there eventually.
It’s great that there is also Tenchi Sōzō, just like Lotto Mon.
>>64I would like to see the creation of the world…
>>68That story is somehow bittersweet, isn’t it?
Zipangu has enough momentum that it can be amplified as much as it wants into a thunderous flame.
Dragon Quest 7 has a bad reputation for its original setting, but I actually like the manga quite a bit.
I still hope it will be adapted into an anime or a game.
I’m curious about the red lotto equipment that seems to be coming to the game.
Iyoshi’s side boob is nice, isn’t it?
>>59I have a memory of masturbating.
In the sequel, did they end up together?
I didn’t think this person was a manga artist because they were doing illustrations for light novels that I like.
The image of someone who does 4-panel comics of Dragon Quest is strong.
>>62Are you drawing!?
>>65I saw the name Fujiwara Kamui in Roto Mon and thought, is he the person from 4-koma theater?
>>62It seems like I only drew a little bit…
I had always thought that the part about Leviathan was just a joke.
I feel like it was comparable to Dai-Dai back then.
I think it was able to differentiate itself with a more subdued approach, unlike the youthful manga like Dai no Daibouken and Abel Legend.
After reading it again, I found that at the time, the vocal part of Hameln was too intense, and even though there was some balancing, it wasn’t nearly enough, so I ended up giving up on the magazine altogether.
It’s unfortunate that everything was blamed on Mu.
The idea of combining the spells Bagikurōsu and Doragoram through fusion magic was interesting.
It was really scary that Orb couldn’t suppress it and part of the Imagine’s body was going wild.
Lord Kadar has no human heart.
>>77Sorry.
It’s refreshing that monsters are seriously trying to kill even slimes by aiming for suffocation.
There is a movie for this, you know.
I went to the movie theater and recorded the show that was broadcast once in the middle of the night.
Wasn’t it just barely a mascot? The ally slime that got squished and turned into goo, but was gathered up in a leather bag and mourned.
Mon-tsugi has a grim image, both in character and background.
>>82It hurts too much that the spell has been sealed for such a long time.
I haven’t read Dragon Quest, so in my mind, Kiefer × Maribel is Kamui Fujiwara from the Special Forces.
>>83Red glasses are nice, aren’t they?
>>103When I read the manga, it feels like the ending connects to the beginning of the movie “Red Spectacles”…
I thought it was an interesting setup when I realized the enemy’s true identity.
When everything was over, I thought, “Rubis, is that really you…?”
The last battle, which gets smaller due to the tempura bowl, and the conclusion involving the spirits feels unsatisfying…
It’s quite interesting from the point where the Dragon King becomes considerably more frank…
>>86At the end of the main story, it cooperated with humans temporarily, but as expected, it turns to be on the enemy side of humanity according to the story of the first one… but after going through the emblem, it completely becomes an ally, which is just laughable.
>>87I skipped to number 1 and appeared with the vibe of number 2, but the final boss is Zoma’s luxurious set.
I like Ryusei.
>>88I was impressed by how well the spell was used, thinking, “So this is how you defend with Astron!”
I think the training with the Dragon King and the battle with Gunon were the most interesting parts.
After
“Do your best to read 20 volumes until it gets interesting! It’s at that kind of pace.”
Behomazun and Behoma are too strong.
Is it because being able to use such a powerful spell like that and not being able to use Zaurik in battle would be more insane than Dragon Ball?
It was interesting that the Dragon King was just the Dragon King from Dragon Quest 1.
I wish they had made Evil Dain super cool and part of the evil Dain series instead of something like Jigospark.
>>96That’s just the Dark Raidein, so it’s not really worth going that far…
I feel like the Dragon Quest vibe almost disappeared around the time of revealing the true identity of Gorgona.
>>98In other words, it was the worst when I found out the true nature of Gorgona’s unknown evil and terrifyingness and thought it was lame…
Even though they were a really good villain with their unique spells, the ability to show a spider face when serious, and no mercy towards allies…
Mahosute is a strong spell in one-on-one battles, and while that’s the case in games, I didn’t expect them to do that in the manga.
>>101In later years, since Dragon Quest 10 uses active time battle, taking on spell attacks with Magic Barrier is more flexible than using Magic Reflect, so there are times when it comes in handy, but instead, it reminded me of Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai.
Was there no Dark Gigadein at the upper levels…?
>>106Evil Dain!
Part 1 of this is until today, so go for it.
Admission is free, and there are still some merchandise left, so go check it out.
I’m not saying anything bad, but make sure to buy the catalog.
>>107It’s nice to see Arus and Kira hanging out together so carefree.
The sequel isn’t necessarily boring, but it has quite a few unsatisfactory developments, so to speak…
Why did they resolve the most spectacular scene of natural disasters in the final volume with just text!?
>>109The text is really hard to read in print because the font is small and the background tone is excessive, but I wonder if it would be better in digital format…
Regardless of the era, isn’t Dragon Quest’s dark fantasy of high quality? Starting from the Jipangu chapter, many unique elements began to increase significantly.
I think Muji was really interesting all the way to the very end.
That’s why it feels like Imagin has transformed into a form that seems like it could be defeated… huh…
Evil Dain is equivalent to Raideen.
I like the appearances of Astron and Mahoste.
Since it was the era when “Roto Mon,” “Dai no Daibouken,” and “Dragon Quest 4-Koma” started, rather than a miracle, I think it was a necessity brought about by Enix’s commitment.
The Dragon Quest series may have bright visuals, but the stories themselves tend to be quite dark.
>>117When I was a kid, I had a particularly dark image of my dad being killed and falling into slavery, but it’s generally like that for others too.
The world ends and it becomes like Evangelion, with spirits appearing and everything coming to an end.
It ends without a feeling of having won comfortably against Zoma.
Choosing the word “evil” instead of “dark day” was stylish.
Since the time of the intense serialization, the battles against Gunon and Hamel’s drum were happening around the same period, so I became a fan of all-out wars.
Even though it’s dark, the battles against Zoma, Baramos Zombie, and Gnoll were despairing but also intense, and the battle against Orochi was a giant monster battle as well.
First of all, Gangan itself is a magazine for four-panel comic artists, right…?
>>125The gag king had that image, didn’t he?
Looking back now, I don’t understand how I found out about this manga and started buying the comics when I was in elementary school.
>>126At that time, they were running intense commercials, and I have a memory of knowing about it and reading it because of that.
Are the people from 4-koma!? They might actually be the kings of gags.
Gangan Magazine has used a strangely core group of authors since its early days.
A growing Caesar is nice, isn’t it?
I got into Dragon Quest 4-panel theater and Gurguru, and I also got hooked on thread pictures.
They’re specifically calling it dark for some reason, so I guess they’re going to present an even more intense development than usual.
I wonder when it will come out.
Including the sequels, it was ultimately too much to say that it was a prequel to the original game!!
They are really good at depicting the threat of an unknown entity, but as soon as it comes time to reveal the truth and wrap things up, it suddenly becomes disappointing.
I was surprised by the scene where everything from the lotto equipment was taken away, and I was overpowered and ended up sitting down while swinging my sword wildly.
The humidity rises after returning from the river of the Sanzu.
The replica of the Lotto armor doesn’t look much like it, but it has a wonderful sense of being a fake.
Even after experiencing that in Ariahann, to be angry at someone who toys with people’s hearts! As expected of a hero.
I remember that when Gunon was defeated, both the Dragon King and Gorgona were quite shocked.
I liked Yao and Kira, who are newlyweds but living a gloomy life since the world is ending.
>>140I think this is around the time when I started buying things extensively because of Pokémon.
>>140I was happy that these two, who had been dropping hints here and there, finally got together.
I was so happy, so let’s have a brighter, more flirtatious newlywed life!
The awakening event is basically a pattern of going to meet the deceased.
>>142You’re going to hell, but you keep showing up in sequels, don’t you, Sir Bane…
The impact of Imagine’s hiragana spell mode is just too strong…
>>144I love how casually mentioning the scale of natural phenomena is so immense…
>>145The sense of despair when the sun or hail is big is incredible, isn’t it…
Due to enduring Ryuusei, Astron had become like a conceptual system.
I don’t know about the sequel, but I’m happy that Tee is properly together with someone.
I clearly remember when Caesarion suddenly got hit by the sun and I went “Whoa…”
The level of the people of Aliahan has become incredible as a result of reflecting on the actions of the previous work.
You can use Ariahun as a battlefield as much as you want, and you can also use Megante as a double feature.
When I read it again, I realized the story was darker than I remembered.
Did it hurt this much? Did the sense of despair feel this strong?
>>152The training in the early tower starts off feeling upbeat, but the final trial is like that…
It seems that the wise king has lost not only his sperm but also his heart.
When the first issue came out, I thought it was a big deal that Kamui Fujiwara was doing Dragon Quest?!
In my mind, it was Chocolate Panic or Raika’s person.
I was like, why would they purposely kill Anis after going that far in the sequel…?
In the sequel, the protagonist’s bullying remains unchanged.
It’s just the main character, Aros, without any coupling or anything…
It seems that there are moments when the sequel becomes interesting, but I still can’t believe it.
>>158I hope it lasts until around volume 18 when the Dragon King appears.
>>158I don’t know how far you’ve read, but if you’re thinking that it’s not getting interesting, especially around the Isis Martial Arts Tournament, then that’s pretty much what everyone else thought too…
Finally, it becomes interesting towards the end when the mastermind finally reveals themselves and starts to confront the executive committee.
>>158It became interesting around the point when the Dragon King took on Piccolo’s role and when Arus was revived.
I understand that there were many dropouts around the Isis and the Three Kings Conference.
I never thought the Dragon King would become Piccolo and irresponsibly have unprotected sex with intruders…
The shadow of the parents per volume is quite tough…
The latter part is interesting, but Rubis, seriously, stop messing around… stop messing around…!!! That’s the frustrating part.
I’m getting bored of humans fighting each other without any magic.
The protagonist’s low energy makes it hard to feel excited.
Due to the thread image, Seizarion has become a sea monster.
At that time, I had no idea that Astaire was a girl.
I thought this guy had weak equipment…
>>169I noticed, but are we getting even closer than that!?
The period for saving in the game is too long! And I feel sorry for the characters from the previous work! It’s really tough.
It gets interesting in the final stages, but once again the battle fizzles out and there’s no pairing for the protagonist.
>>170I was wondering if Akagi would get together with someone, and then they suddenly started saying that the Hero’s lineage is leaving Radatome, and I was like, “Huh?” That’s how the epilogue goes…
It may be just a myth, but the world is falling apart because of the love affair between Zoma and Rubis, so Aros has every right to be more angry about it.
Astea casually uses Gigadein, which the two have struggled with quite a bit.
I really like the idea of a martial arts style that can master the cursed weapons created by the Sword King.
>>174Wisdom’s fusion magic is also flashy.
The qi gong of the fist seems modest…
Despite coming from a very subcultural background
The comic adaptation of the game has become the representative work.
I only knew Fujihara Kamui as the author of Chocolate Panic, and I thought, “What? They made a manga like this?!”
I think that the belly dance practice at the Monzuki Isis was quite interesting.
Including the latter half of the martial arts tournament itself, or rather, the dance itself.
Even though it’s said to be dark, Dragon Quest is a dark fantasy disguised with a child-friendly art style stemming from the original game.
If we raise the character’s proportions for older grades, it won’t be like this.
It was just right for a boy who wanted to stretch his wings.
The manga where the first person to read it dies was “The Emblem of Roto.”
The one who did the comic adaptation of the Tower of Mirage is going to become a sage in the sequel.
I was wondering why, and then there was a story that Kifa is said to be of the lineage of Loto.
I guess we picked up that there is some kind of connection after all.
If anything, I was surprised that no civilians died in the monster battle in the Japan arc!
Ars, who took revenge on Jagann after peeling away a layer, was also great.
It’s not that I want to say anything in particular, but I think I’ve been caught up in Dragon Quest for quite a long time…
I was shocked that Astaire and Alan had become a couple in the sequel.
No matter how you look at it, I hugged Arus twice and we were closer, right?
I like it when the fairy position properly connects with the protagonist.
I wanted the Aster’s lottery hat a little.
Dragon Quest also had quite dark elements in its novel adaptations.
Why is it only the plain places like the daily life in Ariahann?
I don’t know if it was in color in the paperback edition…
The first one honestly had a lot of parts that weren’t very interesting, but there were also some interesting parts.
The sequel is so uninteresting that it’s surprising.
>>191Anyway, there are way too few parts that feel refreshing and clear just by clouding the protagonist’s mind…
The design of Baramos Zombie has been adopted by the original.
Aros is gloomy even when it’s not cloudy…
