After Gonzo screwed up Rosario + Vampire, which you will read a review by me soon, they came with a new anime this season. To promote a MMORPG that will release soon too. The Tower of Druaga: the Aegis of Uruk. While I was expecting serious fantasy business, I got a shitload of lulz and parodies.

Be careful!
The story revolves around Gil, the Hero. Gil is the chosen one to defeat the evil God Druaga once again, since the last Hero did so too. With his four other companions they travel to the tower where Druaga hides in. Along the way, the Hero receives an armour from a Goddess,(Seint Seiya) uppercuts his comrade to convince him to be the Hero,(Hajime no Ippo) meets the Black Knight,(Gundam) shoots beams from his sword,(Zelda) RAAAAAAAAAAGES over his fallen comrades,(any fighting shonen really) their defendless little mage gets tentacle raped,(lol tentacle hentai) Aquamentus made an appearance,(first Zelda game, the first boss, but really, almost any RPG has a fire spewing dragon) Power Rangers made their appearance too. The best one was probably at the end, a big Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, Neon Genesis Evangelion and Dragon Ball parody in one. When this was over, the Hero woke up. He had all just dreamed these events and finds out that he and his comrades are at the beginning of the Tower.

Druaga’s true form.

Lol tentacles.

Gundams are in this animu too.

So are EVA Units.
Funny though, since the plot outline is this;
The Summer of “Anu”: In a summer once every five years, demons in the mysterious Tower of Druaga lose their powers due to the magic spell cast by a god named “Anu”. King Gilgamesh, ruler of the kingdom Uruk, uses the appearance of demons as an excuse to invade the tower and find out the construct’s secrets. As 80 years passed, the Uruk army managed to fight back the demons and built a fortress city and safe haven on the very first floor of Druaga – Metz Kier. Thus begins the story of a warrior named Gil who, finding companions along the way, embarks on a quest for the fabled Blue Crystal Rod, a powerful artifact rumored to be in the highest floor of Druaga. However, other competitors, including the kingdom of Uruk itself, want the treasure, all for their own reasons.
Rumor has it that Gonzo releases 2 versions, 1 for free and 1 for subscribers. If this is true, then I’ll probably watch the free lulz version. This is just hilarious shit.

SONIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII…

…IC BLADE!!!

Lazor beams.

GIGA MEGATON HAMMER!
First episode made me eager to watch more, only thing confusing is the opening theme, upbeat ska is always nice, but the images are set in our time. So they might pull a .hack or they’re just taking a piss with us.

Yeah, i’m really looking forward to more. Maybe the show should stay as it is, because if Gonzo goes all SERIOUS BUSINESS on us, it might turn out to suck. We’ll see
