Many people are aware that in fact anime is a multifaceted world, among which one can find both excellent projects with a deep meaning, and uninteresting stories that have already ceased to excite the audience in principle. It is for this reason that it is worth highlighting good anime series about knights in the fantasy genre. Note the following paintings: “Pandora’s Hearts”, “Sword Master”, “Attack of the Titans”, “Seven Deadly Sins”, “Lord”. In this article, you can find out interesting facts about these anime cartoons and their plot.
"The hearts of Pandora"
The very first anime, after which you can safely consider the appearance of this combination (knights and fantasy) to be part of the anime world. The series appeared after the manga still managed to sell in quantities greater than the minimum. Such a surge in popularity was caused primarily by entry into the international market. It just so happened that for the first time the Japanese decided to sell manga in the United States and countries of the Asian Commonwealth. Only now this type of product was not taxed and any store could buy it for further sale. So this anime started. The plot of "The Heart of Pandora" revolves around the main character, the son of a famous family. When his father decides to kill a child, the boy returns to this world with the power of an unprecedented creation of emptiness. Now, he must put an end to the strife between the chivalric community, taking revenge on his father.
"Sword master"
The most famous example, if you need to combine knights and fantasy in anime. The first season was created in the conditions of the strictest isolation from another world. Artists could not use the new achievements of the Americans, since no one knew about them yet. All frames were drawn by hand, which is why the final cost of the final product was exceeded five times. No one believed that anime would be able to recoup such costs, so that in the process, franchise rights were already sold. That is why the anime is in a new circle, and it is not known how many more seasons will be. The story itself revolves around the main character, who, thanks to virtual reality technology, falls into the fantasy world. The guy knows how this game works from the inside, and may be the first knight who can pull the people locked in it into freedom. There is, however, one small “but”: if you die in virtuality, you really die.
"Attack of the Titans": anime in the genre of adventure and fantasy about knights
Anime positions itself as the first project whose task is to show the interesting world of the apocalypse in your pocket. After the first season, there was a huge stir around the project, but after the second season, the cartoon lost more than a third of its fans. Few people know what caused such hatred on their part. We can say that all the declared features of the anime were shown immediately. It is difficult to believe that the creators deceived people. The plot itself tells about a world in which people are left to live only within the framework of one city. There is a special detachment of knights whose task is to kill the titans, if they decide to damage the peace of ordinary people. And within the framework of such a setting, the protagonist suddenly realizes that he can become a titan at will. It was decided to make a film about knights in the fantasy genre for this anime project. The film was released in 2015 in Japan.
The Seven Deadly Sins
The second season of the cartoon “The Seven Deadly Sins” has not yet finished showing, and the anime has already announced the third. It is worth wishing this project only good luck, as the story really attracts the attention of the audience. The plot tells about the adventures of a brave detachment of knights who decided to leave life in the kingdom. During their absence, the world has changed. Dark forces decided to attack the kingdom and kill the king. Only a detachment of seven deadly sins can stop the invaders and rebuff their once great brothers. True, for starters you will have to put together a squad. This anime series combines the fantasy genre and the knights, which makes the plot of the cartoon even more exciting.
"Lord"
The anime “Lord” was released in 2015. The protagonist of the story is a young man who, after the closure of the online game, remained among her world. Now he is a powerful wizard who wishes to develop the strength of his army. Only now in the game there are other people who are also not averse to showing why their knightly order is worthy to be in front. The main character needs to weave insidious intrigues, thanks to which he will be able to gradually learn the laws of this world. He will meet face to face with the church of this world, whose power is unshakable, and whose word is the law and the ultimate truth. In this anime, the combination of fantasy and knights is very harmonious.
