Taiwanese game developer UserJoy Technology announced a television anime adaptation of its Huanxiang Sanguozhi (Gensou Sangokushi or Fantasia Sango) role-playing game on Friday. The anime will air under the title Gensou Sangokushi: Tengen Reishinki in October 2021.

Synopsis
The story of Gensou Sangokushi: Tengen Reishinki is set during the Three Kingdoms period in China, where various warlords and their armies attempt to conquer and unify the nation. The struggles of these mighty martial heroes attracts the attention of the Mouryou King, the monstrous sovereign of evil spirits, who wishes to prolong the conflict and destroy the human world.

To oppose the evil of the Mouryou King, an organization called Tengen forms anti-Mouryou armies that do battle all over China, but when the 6th anti-Mouryou corps is suddenly wiped out, a rag-tag band of adventurers is gathered to replace them and to form the new 6th anti-Mouryou corps.

Genshin Impact and Arknights anime when? Genshin Impact is very popular among the Japanese.

Already expecting this to be either unnecessarily heavily filtered or blurred as hell.

This one has a really daft habit of butchering good sakuga. Heavily blurring distortions, fast motion, and the like when it's unnecessary. Everything that this one composited in MAPPA and Brain's Base looked shit and had wasted tons of epic sakuga.

If this one happens to have a handful of it (but I ain't expecting anything from GEEKTOYS at this point), well it's already fucked lmao.

It definitely looks generic. Use Google Translate for this: https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%B9%BB%E6%83%B3%E4%B8%89%E5%9B%BD%E5%BF%97

Setting aside that GEEK TOYS is doing this, the original game is a 2003 RPG for God's sake, and this game is only released in Chinese Asian countries like China and Taiwan. Even as a true blue Asian, I'm hearing this title for the very first time, only heard this when I was young but didn't care too much for it.

Either way, gonna have to see the PV for this one, still very cautious. It's damn obvious that The Romance of the Three Kingdoms influence is heavy on this one.


Hmm, as I see it, this epic is really extremely popular among the Chinese and Japanese.
Not exactly the Japanese side, it's more towards the Chinese.

Geek toys did a good job animating Date a Bullet which I watched a month ago, and yet you say "D-tier" anime

Silver Link, Lerche, and TMS are worse, they made their anime dull


Well, that's some shit take.
You are going to tell me, that GT is decent studio, just because they manager to make an OVA episode, which was carried by well written character anyway?


I'd be questioned as well why DaB is 24 and 29 min. respectively but in that case, I still find it good in some way

Your list is full of harem shit watch some good anime bro.

And your are saying TMS is worst . They made Fruit basket , Relife , Dr Stone and it seem you haven't watched any of those.

Same goes for Lerche go watch Assassination Classroom .

At last Silver link I haven't watched any worth mentioning anime but they are doing good job with My next life as a Villeness.

And yes , GEEK TOYS is a F-tier studio.


Yeah right, IDC. Fruits Basket The Final, I dropped after Ep 2 I couldn't get over with the way Tooru was shy to tell the truth to Shigure.

Lerche didn't do good with Bahamut Chronicle, and Silver Link butchered Failed Knight

Interesting what they did with Plunderer if you dont mind sharing that is?


Long story short, they butchered the adaptation. Awful animation, horrible pacing and literally the worst comedy I've seen in anime ever.

Man another Manga suffered this .........
