story

"--Rain. You're fired."

Rain is a beast tamer who aims to defeat the Demon King together with the Hero. However, he is called useless by his companions and kicked out of the Hero's party. Rain chooses the path of an adventurer to live freely, and encounters a girl named Kanade being attacked by a monster during an exam. Rain risks his life to save Kanade, but she defeats the monster with a single blow.

Kanade is a girl of the cat spirit tribe, one of the "strongest species" with extraordinary powers. Attracted by Rain's talent and kindness, Kanade suggests, "Try using me as your servant?" Rain makes a contract with the strongest cat-eared girl and begins a new life as an adventurer. However, the heroes who banished Rain and other "strongest species" notice her power, and the story unfolds in a new direction.

character

The appeal of this work lies in its unique characters. The main character, Rain, is a beast tamer who makes a contract with animals to turn them into familiars and harness their powers. After being expelled from the hero's party, he became a novice adventurer. He is brave and kind, and willing to work hard for others, but his one flaw is that he is an unbelievably good-natured person.

Kanade is a girl from the cat spirit tribe, one of the strongest species and on the verge of extinction. Although she cannot use magic, her physical abilities have evolved to the limit. Although she is a bit naive, she is curious, cheerful, and expressive. Attracted by Rain's kindness and talent, she continues her adventure with him.

Tania is a girl of the Dragon race, one of the strongest races and ruler of the sky. She has particularly high magical powers among the strongest races, and uses fireballs and dragon breath strengthened by magical powers. She is a proud, combative, and somewhat overconfident character, but she is a character who thinks of her friends and acts accordingly.

Sora and Luna are twin sisters of the Spirit Tribe, one of the strongest races. Sora is a magic expert with magical powers greater than those of the Dragon Tribe, and is a reliable person who cares for his sister. On the other hand, Luna has a personality that is the polar opposite of the earnest Sora, and can be a bit of a joker and precocious. Because the Spirit Tribe was once hostile towards humans, she tries to hide her wings, a distinctive feature of the Spirit Tribe, in public.

Nina is one of the strongest races, a girl of the Gods who has been given the power of God. She has fox ears and three tails, is enshrined in a shrine deep in the mountains, and is known for not usually appearing in public. She is timid and easily scared, and is not good at fighting, but the Gods are good at manipulating space.

Stella is the vice captain of the Horizon Knights branch. She is a woman with a strong sense of justice and a chivalrous spirit who performs her duties with conviction. Although she has a very serious personality and values ​​order, she has many difficulties, but she contacts Rain and the others in order to restore the corrupted Knights to their proper state.

This work has many appealing elements as a fantasy adventure tale. First of all, the story of the protagonist Rain's growth is a highlight. After being expelled from the hero's party, he meets the girls of the strongest species and grows as he goes on adventures with them, which moves viewers.

Each character adds depth to the story, such as Kanade's cheerfulness, Tania's pride, Sora and Luna's sisterly love, Nina's weakness and strength, and Stella's sense of justice.

Furthermore, the setting of the Beast Tamer profession is also interesting. The setting of making a contract with an animal and harnessing its power has a unique appeal not found in other fantasy works. Also, the story of Rain, who was expelled from the hero's party, continuing his adventure with new companions resonates with viewers.

The animation quality is also high, with beautiful character designs and background art. In particular, the designs of the strongest girls are fancy yet powerful. The battle scenes are also impressive and have the power to draw the viewer in.

The music also adds to the appeal of the work. The opening theme "Change the World" is a powerful song that makes you feel like the beginning of an adventure, and the ending theme "LOVE & MOON" is a gentle song that makes you feel the bond between the characters.
