However, people, gods and demons, breaking free from the power of a terrible monster, managed to imprison him. Addition to the title of the film "Bahamut's Fury: Origin (Shingeki no Bahamut: Genesis)" - the word Genesis (genesis) is translated as sources. Its meaning is undertaking. You can also find such a name - "The Fury of Bahamut: The Beginning". In some translations you can find such an original interpretation as an invasion or invasion, which, however, is fully consistent with the plot.
History of creation

Once they came to a little-known studio with a proposal to create an anime. They say that the film arose literally on the knee. This is definitely not the case when looking at his first shots. The work of experienced cartoon artists and cult director Sato Keiichi exceeded all expectations.

Bahamut World
The case takes place in the deep Middle Ages, where Joan of Arc is conducting her holy war. Everywhere angels and demons, sometimes tempting heroes, then helping them. Debauchery reigns in taverns, and bounty hunters and lone wanderers roam the country. The world of Bahamut is gloomy, but the costumes of the heroes are perfectly drawn. The monsters of this world are characterized by the same variety. Numerous bestiary of the picture "Bahamut's Fury: Origin" is striking in its highly artistic performance and originality.
Heroes
The protagonist of Bahamut's Rage: Origin is a bounty hunter. A young man named Favoro Leone is looking for lustful creatures of hell, subjugating women. By the force given to him as a hunter, he frees the unfortunate and puts their offenders in a kind of prison inside the vessel.
The wandering heroine of Amir, in addition to pink hair, was not distinguished by either intelligence or quick wisdom worthy of the main character, and the viewer can only examine her charms. Another character is the handsome and winner Kaisar Lidfard, who, to the disappointment of the viewer, will not be any wiser at the end of the story.
The plot of the series
Bahamut - the most dangerous dragon and the enemy of all living things - is imprisoned in a centuries-old captivity. Thanks to the union of gods, demons and people, he was able to neutralize, but a new era is coming for mankind - the time of war, death and suffering.
The dragon dungeon key was split in two. One was taken for storage by demons, the other went to the gods. A few millennia later it turned out that part of the key, protected by the gods, was stolen. The print on the prison was staggering.
At that time, the young bounty hunter did not think about mortal danger until he met young Amira. The girl hid that she is the owner of the divine part of the key. All the evil spirits and even the deity Bacchus begin the hunt for a couple. Along the way, they meet enemies and allies, but in the end they will certainly get to the prison of the dragon Helheim and destroy the danger that threatens all of humanity.
The unexpected zigzags that the plot of the series continually makes can confuse any most sophisticated viewer. Only by looking at the picture carefully and completely, you can reach its deepest meaning.
Ratings and reviews
The series was a real breakthrough for those who are tired of teenage problems and cheap eroticism in the anime of recent years. These are real adventures for a fascinating viewing. Excellent quality of performance returns the viewer to the first masterpieces of the anime genre. Anyone bored with nothing to do should turn their attention to the work of the studio Mappa.
However, not everyone appreciates the film "Bahamut's Fury" so positively. The origins of skepticism lie in unpredictable plot twists, which does not allow us to predict the success of a season. Some anime fans think that the first two episodes are good. Skeptics should be reminded that the anime does not imply much seriousness, and the presence of a huge number of jokes and jokes in the picture just makes it characteristic of this genre. In a word, a picture can be called a pearl in the anime world.
