Dragon Slayer: The Legend of Heroes · review

/10
Animated adaptations of video games are a pretty mixed bag, especially really old ones like Dragon Slayer, a game most Falcom fans don't even really know. Despite that, and despite most of the actual writing in the OVA being pretty bad, Dragon Slayer manages to be a pretty fun experience with lightning fast pacing, some funny scenes and pretty great action capped off with the perfect kind of cheesy, lighthearted ending. With over-the-top, goofy characters who are introduced and sent off with giant explosions and table-destroying brooms, nothing in Dragon Slayer will blow your mind, but it will put it on a fun rollercoaster for fiftyminutes.
