It aired on TBS and BS-TBS from April 6 to June 22, 2018, with a total of 12 episodes. Directed by Nishikori Hiroshi and produced by Seven Arcs Pictures, the epic story of the abyssal world and human conflict left a strong impression on viewers.

story

The setting of "Sareryu" is a world where an unknown realm called the Abyss exists. This Abyss is inhabited by powerful creatures called "Dragons", and humanity is exposed to their threats as it fights for survival. The protagonist, Gaius Levina Sorel, is a member of the Abyss's exploration team, the "Imperial Dragon Knights", and will carry out his mission while coming to terms with his own past.

The story begins from Gayus's perspective, and depicts his bond with his fellow members of the research team, and the process of uncovering the secrets of the abyss. Gayus will find the meaning of his existence as he uncovers the mysteries lurking deep within the abyss, fights with dragons, and the desires and conflicts of humans intertwine.

character

The appeal of "Sareryu" lies in its unique characters. The main character, Gayus, is a complex character who is calm and intelligent, but also carries the trauma of the past. His growth and change are at the heart of the story, drawing the viewer in.

Gayus' partner, Siegfried, plays an important role in the battle against the dragon. As his bond with Siegfried deepens, Gayus' emotional wounds are also shown to heal. Other members of the expedition, such as Elisabeth, Yuuki, and Leonardo, each have their own backgrounds and goals, adding excitement to the story.

Animation and Music

The animation of "Sareryu" fully demonstrates the technical capabilities of Seven Arcs Pictures. The mysterious scenery of the abyss and the battle scenes with the dragon are visually beautiful. In particular, the design and movements of the dragon are realistic and powerful, leaving a strong impact on the viewer.

Music is also an important element that enhances the appeal of "Sareryuu." The powerful melody of the opening theme "DRIVE" and the melancholy lyrics of the ending theme "Tsinnin" enhance the atmosphere of the story. The background music is also carefully created to match each scene, and plays a role in enhancing the emotions of the viewer.

Evaluation and Impressions

"Sareryu" is a work that is attractive for its epic story depicting the world of the abyss and the conflict between humans and its unique characters. The visual beauty and powerful music combined to leave a strong impression on viewers.

However, some people feel that the short broadcast period of 12 episodes did not allow for the full exploration of the secrets of the Abyss and the backgrounds of the characters. By reading the original light novel, you can learn more about the world and the charm of the characters.
